Dhoni, who is known for his steady batting and composure, was facing a delivery from Harshal Patel when he was trapped leg before wicket (LBW). The decision was given after a lengthy review, leaving the crowd and fans stunned.

The most unusual aspect of the dismissal was the reaction of Harshal Patel. Instead of celebrating with his teammates, Patel walked over to Dhoni and shook his hand. He then bowed down in respect and uttered a few words that were not audible on the stump mics.

This gesture from Patel sparked speculation and intrigue. Some believe that he was showing compassion for Dhoni, who has had a challenging season so far. Others suggest that it was a sign of respect for one of the greatest cricketers of all time.

Patel's gesture was praised by many, including former cricketers and commentators. They believe that it showed the true spirit of sportsmanship and respect that exists in the game of cricket.
