MS Dhoni was once known for his power hitting but now he plays with a lot of control. In today’s match against Australia, former Indian captain hit Mitchell Starc for a six and the shot was so hilarious that even Virat Kohli couldn’t control his laughter.
The shot was quite normal but Virat saw something hilarious in it as he started laughing. It is because Virat has never seen Dhoni so keen to hit a ball and that to a dangerous bowler. Dhoni hit the ball towards square leg to secure a boundary. Watch the video and decide for yourself why Virat Kohli is laughing at a shot which looks very normal.

India is playing against Australia in their second World Cup match and Virat Kohli chose to bat first after winning the toss. Indian batting attack posted a huge total of 352 runs in 50 overs with Shikhar Dhawan scoring a fantastic century.
