‘Don’t you dare insult Dhoni’

That’s how Rising Pune Supergiant owner Sanjeev Goenka’s brother, Harsh Goenka, got slammed for criticising MS Dhoni after he said, “#RPSvMI Smith proves who’s the king of the jungle. Overshadows Dhoni totally. Captains innings. Great move to appoint him as captain.”

He tweeted this after Rising Pune defeated Mumbai Indians by seven wickets. Dhoni was replaced by Australia's Steve Smith as captain of the Pune team this season.

Dhoni hasn’t commented on the replacement, but Goenka’s tweet clearly did not go down well with Twitteratti.
