India is currently taking on South Africa in the series decider at Cape Town. Batting first India posted 172 runs on the board. However, during South Africa’s innings, MS Dhoni was heard giving information to Suresh Raina.
JP Duminy put India to bat first after winning the toss. India banked on Shikhar Dhawan (47) and comeback man Raina (43) to post a challenging total on the board. Dhawan played the waiting game while Raina took the attack to the bowlers.
Some useful contributions down the order by Hardik Pandya and Dinesh Karthik helped India post a challenging total. Dhoni also chipped in with some runs.
However, in reply, host South Africa fell short of the towering run-rate. India bowled some tight lines as South Africa found it tough to score runs. Meanwhile, runs came here and there for the host. While they took Axar Patel for 16 runs, Raina also leaked few runs.
Dhoni shouts at Raina:
During the 15th over, Raina was bowling some short balls in an attempt to cramp the batsmen with pace. However, Christiaan Jonker made room for himself to score runs.
Meanwhile, Dhoni was giving information from behind the wicket on how to bowl. Dhoni asked Raina not to bowl quickly on the stumps. Meanwhile, Raina turning a deaf ear to Dhoni bowled a quick delivery on to the stumps and was rewarded with a boundary.

“Danda pe tez mat daalna ( Don’t bowl Fast on the stumps ),” Dhoni said to Raina.
Meanwhile, India are looking pretty confident to wrap up the series with the run-rates going up.
India will create history if they register a series win following their 5-1 series win in the ODI series.
