Former England batsman Kevin Pietersen took to his official Twitter handle and posted a throwback photo with former India captain MS Dhoni. In the photo, Pietersen can be seen suggesting something to the wicketkeeper-batsman Dhoni.
“Hey, MSD, why don’t you put a fielder over there for me? Scoring runs against you guys is so easy,” Pietersen captioned it while taking a cheeky dig at MS Dhoni.
However, the Indian Premier League (IPL) team Chennai Super Kings (CSK) chipped in with hilarious response to KP’s tweet.
The Chennai-based franchise had posted a classic photo, showing off MS Dhoni’s lightning-fast stumping abilities and then trolled Kevin Pietersen.
“But sometimes you don’t need fielders!”, CSK captioned the photo.
Chennai Super Kings’ savage reply won millions of hearts, drew a lot of attention on the platform and also ended up receiving more retweets than Kevin Pietersen’s initial tweet.
