Bowled'em Mahi...

            It seems like nothing is impossible for team India in the world. Chasing couple of huge targets against the strong team Australia, India has proven to the world that it is the strongest side amongst all the teams. They not only made the mammoth chases easily possible but also they didn't let the stress come around them while chasing even in the absence of Sachin Tendulkar, which was the weakest point of team India in 90's and a decade followed by. Last day, when MSD was batting in the final over of Nagpur match, India required 6 of 6. The very first ball was missed by the captain cool which went in the safest hands of wicket keeper, almost kissing the stump and many hearts came straight in the mouths. The next ball came full toss and he hit for a boundary. Equation then went down to 4 balls and two runs, when millions of people took the breath of relief after nail biting inning of Team India ended in the 49th over. And here, on the forth delivery, he flicked the ball towards the straight and ran for two runs quickly, provided another remarkable  victory. As soon as the second run completed, Mahi removed the stumps and headed towards the dressing room. 
Mahi after victory

            It's never a strange moment to see when our coolest captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni wins a match and take one of the stump dug in the middle of the stadium, very proudly, indicating that he has conquered his fortress. Wait and watch. The next game isn't so far, to conquer yet another fortress, somewhere in the world. Well you may have observed many times the Mahi taking a stump away after every win. What does he do with them? Why does he take them after victory? Too many questions would arise when we think of it. He may have the intention to collect the stumps in order to keep the memorable marks he did in the past. That's very good act of captain cool and something very different. So let's assume some funny jobs which Mahi will do with stumps after he will retire from the all format of the games.
So here they are, uses of stumps in the life of MSD after retirement,

·         He may build a protecting wall of compound in his Farm House where he and Sakshi will live

·         He may use them in tents when he will go for outing


·         He may use them as support to a tree which will be grown by Sakshi Dhoni in their yards.

·         He may prepare a boat out of them.

·         He may design his drawing room furniture by those stumps.


·         While getting too old, Mahi will use them as weapons. (Lol)

·         He may use them as a bat to get better shot with the bat while practicing

·         He will construct separate home for them nearest to his home premises, so that, millions year later, when our generation will dig and find those stumps, they would easily predict "Yes! This was supposed to be the home of the man who hit the helicopter shots"

·         Sakshi may use them as weapon to beat Mahi when they will have cute fights.

·         Their children can play with them. If they will get lost, Mahi will tell them,"Beta, I have thousands of stumps. Don't worry."

·         Their children will build small homes out of them using them as pillars.

·         When global warming will take place in India and the winter won't be normal, there will be ice fall instead of pink cold, Mahi will use them in fire to beat the cold.

·         If Mahi will buy the cattle, he will instruct his cattle by those stumps.

·         When the world will be suffering from the shortage of wood, and there will be no stumps in international cricket, Mahi will sell them at higher rates and secure his future with that money. (Again Lol)

            In the last game we read written a special message to Mahi by a little girl of Nagpur sitting in a stand. "DHONI UNCLE. WIN THE MATCH." A man who runs tremendous fast between the wickets can never be an uncle. I wish the stemina he has right now, will stay with him for the upcoming years. And of course we would love to see him taking more stumps away from the ground as every time he takes the stump, he registers a remarkable victory and makes millions faces smile. God bless MSD.
