Harbhajan Singh Reacts To MS Dhoni-Paul Reiffel Wide Controversy; Fans 'Angrily' Respond!

The match between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) ended with many raising eyebrows on MS Dhoni's animated reaction to on-field umpire Paul Reiffel. 

Ever since 'the wide controversy' took to headlines, CSK skipper MS Dhoni has been facing heat from cricket experts and fans for his behaviour during the match. 

Talking about the incident, it happened in the 19th over of SRH’s chase when the match was finely poised. During the game, SRH had scored three from the first ball of the 19th over when they needed 27 runs from the last two overs.

The first ball of the over was hit for a two by Rashid Khan before CSK's Shardul Thakur bowled a wide. 

Then in the following delivery, it looked like a wide again but umpire Reiffel did not call it. The umpire was captured putting his hands out to call it a wide but then changed his mind at the last moment after seeing Dhoni's angry reaction. 

Currently, Dhoni is facing criticism for his behaviour for that incident. Amid the row, Harbhajan Singh reacted to a video in a funny manner. He responded to a clip of Reiffel changing his mind over the call with a series of laughing emojis.

Soon after Harbhajan Singh's reaction went viral, fans slammed him calling him a traitor for his ‘dig’ at Dhoni. Harbhajan, who pulled out of IPL 2020 ahead of the tournament due to personal reasons, has been part of CSK squad since 2018.
