When it comes to Umpire’s Decision Review System (DRS), former Indian captain MS Dhoni is no less than third eye of Lord Shiv. MS Dhoni is very accurate and we have seen this on many occasions. Cricket lovers are so crazy behind his DRS call that they literally renamed it as ‘Dhoni Review System’. On Sunday, during the first ODI against Sri Lanka at Dharamsala, on the 6th ball of the 33rd over left-arm spinner, Sachith Pathirana hit Team India’s No.9 Jasprit Bumrah on the back pad. After the Sri Lankans appealed, the umpire Anil Chaudhary was about to make his decision, but before he could raise his finger for ‘out’, Dhoni asked for a DRS. The referral was successful as the ball-tracking showed that the ball had pitched and hit the batsman outside the off-stump. Thus it saved Bumrah’s wicket.
Sri Lanka defeat India which almost stunned the host when they were at 29 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in the 19th overs after losing the toss against the visitors. For India side MS Dhoni score 65 Runs which help to India to cross 100 runs mark.
All-rounder Thisara Perera who led Sri Lanka bounced back in red-hot form with the change of format as they bundled India out for a paltry 112 in 38.2 overs in the opening game of the three-match One-Day International (ODI) series at Dharamshala on Sunday. Former India captain MS Dhoni was the only saving grace for India as he helped them go past 100.
