"Should Not Play Red-Ball Cricket": MS Dhoni's Surprising Advice To CSK Star
Chennai Super Kings captain MS Dhoni on Saturday had a word of advice for young Sri Lankan pacer Matheesha Pathirana: don't even get close to red-ball cricket. Referred to as Baby Malinga, as he has modelled his bowling action on the Lankan great, the 20-year pacer with sling arm action won the man of the match award after returning excellent figures of 3/15 in CSK's six-wicket win over Mumbai Indians here. Dhoni kept the bowler's sling action, which could be prone to injuries, in mind as he cautioned Pathirana and also the Sri Lankan cricket administrators against playing him in all formats of the game.
