Veteran Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin recalled an incident when former Indian skipper MS Dhoni got angry with fast bowler S
Sreesanth. However, we all know that Dhoni stays calm and cool on the field and hardly shows his emotion but Ashwin shared a story where he mentioned how the legendary wicketkeeper-batter got angry.
However, India were playing a game in South Africa at Port Elizabeth (now named Gqeberha) in 2010 and R Ashwin had been carrying drinks. Dhoni was disappointed not to see Sreesanth sitting with the reserves in the dugout as well. In his book ‘I Have The Streets- A Kutty Cricket Story’, Ravichandran Ashwin shared his chat with MS Dhoni and how he got angry when Sreesanth didn’t come down from the dressing room despite Ashwin reminding him as well.
“I return to my drink duties. The next time I have to go with a helmet. This time I can sense MS is angry, and I have never seen him lose his cool. ‘Where is Sree (Sreesanth)? What is he doing?’ MS asks sternly,” Ashwin wrote.”I tell him he is getting a massage. MS doesn’t say anything. In the next over, he calls me to return the helmet. He is calm now. While giving me the helmet, he says, ‘Do one thing. Go to Ranjib sir (the team manager). Tell him Sree is not interested in being here. Ask him to book his ticket for tomorrow so he can go back to India,” he added.

“Sree quickly gets up and gets dressed. Not only that, but now he assumes the drinks duties. The next time MS needs a drink, Sree makes sure he charges out. Instead of taking the drink from him, MS motions for me to come over. ‘Did you tell Ranjib sir or not?’ he asks me,” Ashwin shared this in his book.
