'Guilty conscience': Yograj Singh blasts MS Dhoni over hookah controversy silence

NEW DELHI: The controversy sparked by the resurfacing of Irfan Pathan's five-year-old interview on social media refuses to take a back seat. In the clip, Pathan took a veiled dig at Dhoni, indirectly accusing the former captain of favouring players who arranged hookahs for him. Former India batter Yuvraj Singh's father, Yograj Singh - who had previously criticised Dhoni for allegedly cutting short his son's international career - has launched another scathing attack, this time targeting not only Dhoni but also Kapil Dev and Bishan Singh Bedi for treating fellow players badly. Yograj pointed out that it is not only Irfan Pathan who has spoken against Dhoni; Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag, and Harbhajan Singh have also shared their experiences of the treatment they received in the past. "It is not only about Irfan Pathan. You see Gautam Gambhir speaking about it. Virender Sehwag openly said about it as well. Harbhajan Singh spoke about how he was put out of the team like a fly. You should arrange a jury on why he did what he did. MS Dhoni doesn't want to answer. One who doesn't want to answer has a guilty conscience," Yograj said while speaking to InsideSport. Yograj claimed that players like MS Dhoni, Kapil Dev, and Bishan Singh Bedi mistreated team members during their tenures. He also acknowledged his strained relationship with Kapil Dev, revealing a shocking incident where he once pointed a gun at Kapil over his exclusion from the team. "I talk about Bishan Singh Bedi, Kapil Dev, MS Dhoni. I can talk about people whom I have been with. They have treated people like shit. Jo galat hai wo galat hai. Two wrongs cannot make one right. I say this openly, that our cricketers and team were destroyed by our captain."
