MS Dhoni should go visit Guru Nanak in Pakistan and get his Head cleared ! lol
Cricket legend MS Dhoni has not received a central contract from the sport's governing body in India
fuelling speculation that he could retire from all formats of the game.
Indian coach Ravi Shastri had previously said that Dhoni stood a chance of playing the T20 World Cup later this year
depending on his performance in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 tournament.

Over the last month, India's celebrity sportspeople, particularly its superstar cricketers
have regularly been asked to take a position or offer their views on the protests over
a controversial citizenship law that are sweeping the country.
India politics in Kashmir : Fallout with Cricket ! - ketchim - 01-24-2020
The protests have largely been led by students
who have one thing in common with many of the country's elite athletes: Their demographic !
Their ages are approximately those of Rishabh Pant
badminton player PV Sindhu
wrestler Bajrang Punia
table tennis player Manika Batra
and those of the average Indian sports fan as well.
While the protesting students might not be looking for endorsement
or approval from the country's sporting heroes
the more sedentary fans seem to want their idols to Take a Stand.
The silence of the superheroes annoys them. (as it annoys ketchim
)

A few years ago, Sunil Gavaskar son Rohan recalled an incident during the communal riots in Mumbai in 1993
when Gavaskar, looking out of a window in his apartment saw that a hate mob had cornered a Muslim family
Gavaskar rushed down to confront the would-be assailants.
Rohan said, "He told the mob, 'Whatever you are going to do to that family, you are going to do to me first'
and then better sense prevailed and the family was allowed to go on its way."

"We are fighting with each other, we are spilling blood,
we are destroying what is ours.
This is not the kind of picture we want to show the world.
This is our home, India is our home"
