The Dream11 Indian Premier League 2020 (IPL 2020) season will now move ahead with MS Dhoni-led Chennai taking on Shreyas Iyer’s Delhi in the seventh match of the ongoing tournament. As has been the case throughout the tournament so far, former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag once again took to his social media accounts to share his opinions on the upcoming Dream11 IPL 2020 game. As part of his social media show ‘Viru Ki Baithak’, the former Indian opening batsman comically compared veteran Delhi spinner Amit Mishra with Shahid Afridi and also expressed his advice for Chennai captain MS Dhoni.
Dream11 IPL 2020: Virender Sehwag’s hilarious advice for MS Dhoni over the sixth bowler
After Chennai’s defeat to Rajasthan on September 22, Virender Sehwag praised Sam Curran for being the only Chennai pacer who made an impact with the ball in the high-scoring game. Further praising the English cricketer, the former opening batsman also had a hilarious advice for Chennai skipper MS Dhoni in reference to the 1995 Bollywood movie Karan Arjun, as he said: “MS Dhoni ko uska Curran toh mil gaya hai, ab usko apna Arjun dhoond lena chahiye.” (translation: MS Dhoni found his Curran, now he must find his Arjun) as he emphasised on the need of a sixth bowler for Chennai.
Following up on the same comical analogy, on September 25, Virender Sehwag said that MS Dhoni should use either Josh Hazlewood or Imran Tahir in their upcoming match against Delhi. According to him, both these bowlers have the potential to become MS Dhoni’s “Arjun” since he has already found his “Curran”.
Virender Sehwag also mocked Delhi spinner Amit Mishra over his age. Speaking on the possibility of the leg-spinner replacing an injured Ravichandran Ashwin for Delhi, Sehwag said that he is fully aware of Mishra’s growing age (36 years) despite his agile fitness. The former Indian cricketer hilariously stated that Amit Mishra must be taking fitness tips from none other than ex-Pakistani all-rounder Shahid Afridi himself.
