Former Indian skipper MS Dhoni celebrated his 41st birthday on Thursday in the presence of his wife and some close friends. Being one of the most successful and beloved players of all time, the legendary batsman was hailed by his fans and his teammates who flooded social media with their messages for Dhoni.
While Virat Kohli and Suresh Raina called Dhoni their ‘elder brother’, Sourav Ganguly hailed the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain as a fantastic leader.
Amid all of the wishes that poured in for MS Dhoni, former Indian pacer S Sreesanth decided to wish his former captain in a unique manner.

Sreesanth, who had won the ICC T20 World Cup under Dhoni’s captaincy shared an old video of the wicketkeeper-batsman getting bowled in the IPL. He revealed that dismissing Dhoni was an absolute honour for him.
“@mahi7781..wishing u the very best birthday.great captain ,superb brother who always wanted me to be the very best in every match, and cherish every moment ..esp.this one my big brother..love u bro.

As soon as Sreesanth shared the video, he was trolled by moral police who urged the pacer to show some ‘respect’ to his former captain. While some other users took the video slightly less seriously, they were still wondering how could someone wish a person in such a manner?
