VIDEO: MS Dhoni and Sachin Tendulkar’s ‘master’ plan to dismiss Shahid Afridi

In an ODI match between India and Pakistan in 2007 in Guwahati, Sachin Tendulkar was bowling the 39th over.  The second ball of the over was hit for four by Shahid Afridi. Afridi was looking to step out and make room on the off side. MS Dhoni noticed this from behind the stumps and asked Tendulkar to bowl wide outside off. Following Dhoni’s advice, Sachin bowled a wide delivery. Looking to charge Tendulkar, Afridi stepped out and  made some room to hit over the off side. The ball spun away from Afridi, beat the outside edge of his bat and Dhoni whips off the bails with Afridi well outside of the crease. Watch it here:
