Cummins gives a witty answer when asked about facing MSD with 6 needed off 1 ball

Former Team India skipper MS Dhoni, as numerous bowlers have stated in the past, was one of the toughest batsmen to bowl to in the death overs. The hard-hitting batsman would stay rooted to his crease, at times take a step back, and score at will. If a yorker was coming his way, he would pull out the 'Helicopter' shot. If it was a bouncer, Dhoni would either pull it or make room for himself to go over the point region. Simply put, he made bowlers' life very difficult. Australian pacer Pat Cummins can vouch for that. Cummins has been very active on his YouTube channel lately. While he mostly posts video blogs (vlogs), the pacer recently held a live Question and Answer (Q&A) session with his fans. One of the questions was about Dhoni. Cummins was asked by one of the fans about his thought process when he would be bowling to Dhoni with six needed off one ball. In response, the 28-year-old speedster said while he would prefer to be in that situation, he would mostly go for a bouncer or a yorker.

"I think I have seen like a million videos of Dhoni hitting sixes off bowlers who missed yorkers. So I wouldn't bowl a yorker, maybe a bouncer or slower ball or a wide yorker. I prefer not to be in that position," Pat Cummins said.
