Nitish Kumar had said, "MS Dhoni has talent and in this sense, I mean that he has talent but no technique. Virat Kohli has a much better range of technique than MS Dhoni, but Dhoni is a great cricketer because he is aware of his strengths and has a good understanding of cricket. That is why we have become champions." As soon as the video of Nitish's interview came out, people started criticizing him. Someone said that if there was no technique, how could Dhoni become such a good finisher? On the other hand, someone said that Nitish has no understanding of cricket.
Nitish apologized
Nitish posted a story on Instagram and wrote, "The question asked to me was about skills and mindset, which is the most important aspect in the game of cricket. I chose Mahi bhai as an example of mindset. I believe that having a good mindset is an important aspect of achieving success. What I said in my interview has been misinterpreted by people and some people have even tampered with the video. Please do not spread negativity if you do not have complete information."
