She was given rape and physical violence threat on Instragram account of Dhoni’s wife Sakshi. Several people condemned the threats. Reacting to the incident, Pakistan cricketer Shahid Afridi commented supporting Dhoni.
“I don’t know what sort of threats were directed at MS Dhoni & his family but it’s not right & shouldn’t happen. Dhoni’s the person who has taken Indian cricket to new heights.
