'Everyone knows that when MS comes to bat…': Former India batter reveals how Gautam Gambhir outsmarted Dhoni in IPL

Hindustan Times  

MS Dhoni and Gautam Gambhir – the two names that played a pivotal role in India winning the 2011 World Cup. MS Dhoni and Gautam Gambhir were often pitted against each other in the IPL Even when CSK were banned and Dhoni represented the now-defunct Rising Pune Supergiant, their rivalry continues. Robin Uthappa, the former India batter, who was with KKR when Gambhir pulled an ace up his sleeve against Dhoni, revealed the thought process that went into Gambhir's planning. In IPL 2015 and 2016, Gambhir would have two slips, one and two close-in short leg fielders against Dhoni, willing to take the gamble of leaving the entire outfield open.
