Everything That's Wrong With Rewriting History Under Hindutva Nationalism

The BJP, with its insistence on the purity of Hindu Rashtra, would sadly reduce the soaring generosity of their founding vision to the petty bigotry of majoritarian chauvinism.

Burden Of History And The Need To Erase The Past For Political Gains

Historiography under previous governments can, and should, be contested. But history that’s being rewritten under the present government is not merely to eulogise some leaders, but also, and more worryingly, to condemn several chapters of the past.

Former India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni on Wednesday showed, once again, his class during the first ODI against New Zealand at Napier.

During the Kiwi innings, Dhoni guided the spinners with his predictions, how batsmen will play. Towards the end of the innings, Dhoni was heard telling Kuldeep about Trent Boult, "aankh bandh karke rokega, around the wicket daal".

Watch it here:

@msdhoni literally dictated that last wicket step by step before it happened. #NZvIND #Dhoni pic.twitter.com/QwPyuE1mEv

And twitterati can't get enough of Dhoni advice. Here are some reactions:

Dhoni : ye rokega, dusri side se daal sakta hai. Yaha se andar nai ayegi
*Kuldeep switches to over the wicket*
Last wicket gone.
Never underestimate Dhoni's presence of mind. The man brings more than what is on paper. #Dhoni #NZvIND

That moment when you hear Dhoni tell Kuldeep to go round the wicket and when Kuldeep does, you know exactly what will happen! Dhoni the mind reader, and this is also one reason we need him at the ICC World Cup, 2019 in England and Wales.

#Dhoni showed why he is considered most intelligent cricketer. Watch the last of #Newzealand innings, his advice to #kuldeepyadav.

ðÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ MS to Kuldeep,
"Ye aankh band kar ke rokega, isko idhar se daal sakta hai.."
(Bowl over the wicket)
Kuldeep denies..
Dhoni again, Isko idhar se daal.
Kuldeep bowls a little away.
And gets the wicket of Boult. #NZvIND #MSDhoni #Dhoni

India bowled with clinical precision to bundle out the Kiwis for a paltry 157. Wrist spinner Kuldeep was the most successful, returning figures of 4/39 in 10 overs, while seamer Mohammed Shami finished with an excellent 3/19 in six overs. There were also two wickets for leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal.
