Mumbai: After India lost to New Zealand in the 2019 World Cup semi-final, a few moments stood out amongst the heartbroken Indian fans and one of them was when a throw by Guptill sent MS Dhoni back to the pavilion. Dhoni was India’s last hope after all other major batsmen had been dismissed.
During the aftermath, a collage went viral over the internet, showing a crying photographer, apparently reacting to Dhoni’s dismissal. Here’s the photo collage.
