In the video that has become an instant hit on social media, one can hear the journalist asking Mahi, “Will you continue playing after this tournament?”. To which MSD responds, “Come here, let’s have some fun.”
At first the scribe thought the Indian captain was just pulling his leg and that he will stop the joke right there. But the usually calm captain, who is known for his witty replies again requested the journalist to share the dais with him.
Dhoni went on to grill the journalist asking, “Do you think I am not fit? Do you think I can survive till the 2019 World Cup?” “Yes sure,” came the reply from the shocked journalist.
“Then you have answered your own question. You fired the wrong ammunition at the wrong time mate,” said the Indian skipper sending the whole press room into a bout of laughter. The man surely hasn’t lost his cool quotient!
