Indian southpaw batsman Gautam Gambhir wants MS Dhoni to get rid of the white beard look. Dhoni is seen in a new avatar on the England tour as he is supporting a white beard. However, Gambhir believes that the white beard look makes Dhoni look a bit older than what he is.

Meanwhile, Gautam Gambhir said that Dhoni is still fit as a fiddle as he is doing the right things. Dhoni is a live wire on the field and the age factor doesn’t push him down as far as the fitness is concerned.

Dhoni looks 5-10 years older in this look, says Gautam Gambhir.

“MS Dhoni looks 5-10 years older than he is at the moment and I think someone needs to tell him that he is looking far older than he is. I think he is pretty much very fit, on the ground he is quick, he is as fit as any other youngster. I think the look makes him far older than he is,” said Gambhir while speaking to Cricbuzz.

Meanwhile, MS Dhoni had to face the aftermath of the fans following his knock of 37 off 57 balls. In fact, Dhoni didn’t receive support from the other end. However, there is no denying the fact that India’s run-chase lacked the intent that they would have liked.

Therefore, England was able to level the series 1-1. The host’s Test captain Joe Root was able to return back to form as he scored a fine hundred to take England’s total to 322 runs.

Furthermore, Liam Plunkett was able to scalp four wickets in the 10-overs quota to halt the Indian innings to a paltry 236 runs. Thus, the ODI series decider will be played tomorrow at Headingley, Leeds.
