Ambati Rayudu clarifies he did not criticize Dhoni and Gaikwad
Amidst rumors circulating on social media regarding his alleged criticism of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain Ruturaj Gaikwad and former captain MS Dhoni, former CSK player Ambati Rayudu has come forward to clarify his stance.
Following CSK defeat against Lucknow Super Giants in a crucial match of the ongoing IPL cricket series, there were speculations that Rayudu had shared comments made by former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu, blaming Dhoni and Gaikwad for the loss.
Reacting to these rumors, Rayudu stated, “I did not comment on the match against Lucknow. I was picking mangoes in my farm grove. So how could I have spoken ill of them? First of all, journalists should behave responsibly before sharing such false news.”
The speculation had caused unrest among CSK fans who were displeased with Rayudu allegedly criticizing the team’s leadership. However, Rayudu clarification should put an end to the controversy.
In recent times, social media has become a platform for quick dissemination of information, often leading to misunderstandings and baseless rumors. Rayudu case highlights the importance of responsible journalism and the need for verification before spreading unverified news.
CSK, despite facing defeat against Lucknow Super Giants, remains one of the most successful teams in the history of the IPL. With a strong fan base and a talented squad, the team is expected to bounce back from this setback and continue their pursuit of glory in the ongoing season.
