IPL throwback: When MS Dhoni trolled on-air commentator Kevin Pietersen

Indian captain Virat Kohli and his former Royal Challengers Bangalore teammate Kevin Pietersen were recently involved in a conversation on Instagram Live. In the conversation, the two cricketers got to talking about the time when MS Dhoni dismissed Kevin Pietersen in a 2011 Test match. While Kohli sided with his former skipper, Pietersen described MS Dhoni’s bowling as 'filth' and reminded everyone that he was never dismissed and in fact survived a close DRS call.

The incident from the 2011 Test was also hilariously discussed during one of the yesteryear seasons of IPL. During a match between MS Dhoni-led Rising Pune Supergiant and Mumbai Indians in IPL 2017, Kevin Pietersen was performing his commentary duties where he requested on-mic fielder Manoj Tiwary to pass on a message to his skipper. Upon Pietersen’s request, Tiwary told MS Dhoni that Pietersen thinks he is a better golfer than the veteran Indian wicketkeeper. In his usual comical self, MS Dhoni immediately reminded everyone that Pietersen still remains his first Test wicket.
