England benefited in the first Ashes match due to the use of Dhoni’s strategy! An imitation of the Indian legend from Stokes
Australia won the first match of Ashes 2023 by 2 wickets. Australia won the match by 2 wickets in the Edgbaston Test at Birmingham. However, England captain Ben Stokes’ leadership qualities are widely appreciated. But former Sri Lanka legend Kumar Sangakkara discovered the match led by Ben Stokes and MS Dhoni.
Australia lead the Ashes 0-1 after winning the Edgbaston Test. There was a lot of discussion about the leadership of Ben Stokes during this match. Stokes’ fielding was particularly appreciated. Commenting on Stokes fielding, Kumar Sangakkara remembered former Indian captain MS Dhoni. Australia were given a final innings target of 281 runs to win, while they needed 174 runs on the final day. Meanwhile, when Travis Head was on strike, Stokes set up a fielder right in front of the batsman.
Kumar Sangakkara remembered MS Dhoni when he saw Stokes fielding this fielding in front of the batsman and just behind the bowler. Commenting, Sangakkara said, “This is exactly MS Dhoni’s fielding. In the IPL, Dhoni used to play similar fielding for Kieron Pollard. Dhoni used to place the fielder right behind the bowler. Ben Stokes has also been the garden of the CSK team.”
Meanwhile, the fielding by Stokes worked. As the player stood in front, the head did not dare to play a big shot. Under pressure, he took a catch in the hands of Joe Root in the slips. Pollard too was not missing the opportunity to hit a six towards the front. But his efforts often failed in front of the duo. Dhoni’s move at a crucial moment in the final match of IPL 2010 cost Mumbai Indians dearly.
Meanwhile, considering this first Ashes Test between England and Australia, England scored 393 for 8 in the first innings. In reply, the Australian team were bowled out for 386 runs. After England were bowled out for just 273 runs in the second innings, victory looked easy for Australia. However, rain on the final day canceled the first session and England’s hopes of victory were revived. On the final day, Pat Cummins and Nathan Lyon shared a half-century partnership for the ninth wicket, and the duo took Australia to victory. The second Ashes match will be played at Lord’s from June 28 to July 2. (Ben Stokes used MS Dhoni’s strategy in the Edgbaston Test, says Kumar Sangakkara)
