ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು: ಹದಿನಾರು ವರ್ಷಗಳ ಅಂತರರಾಷ್ಟ್ರೀಯ ಕ್ರಿಕೆಟ್ ವೃತ್ತಿ ಬದುಕಿಗೆ ಮಹೇಂದ್ರ ಸಿಂಗ್ ಧೋನಿ ದಿಢೀರ್ ವಿದಾಯ ಹೇಳುವ ಮೂಲಕ ಮತ್ತೊಮ್ಮೆ ಕ್ರೀಡಾಭಿಮಾನಿಗಳಿಗೆ ಅಚ್ಚರಿ ತಂದಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಅನಿರೀಕ್ಷಿತ ನಿರ್ಧಾರಗಳಿಂದಲೇ ಗಮನ ಸೆಳೆದ ಧೋನಿ ಆಗಸ್ಟ್ 15ರಂದು ನಿವೃತ್ತಿ ಘೋಷಿಸಿದರು. ಅದರ ಬೆನ್ನಲ್ಲೇ ಸುರೇಶ್ ರೈನಾ ಸಹ ನಿವೃತ್ತಿಯ ಘೋಷಣೆ ಮಾಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದಂತೆ ಎಲ್ಲ ಪ್ರಮುಖ ಕ್ರಿಕೆಟಿಗರಿಗೂ 'ತಕ್ಕ ರೀತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ವಿದಾಯ' ಹೇಳಬೇಕು ಎಂದು ಸಾಮಾಜಿಕ ಮಾಧ್ಯಮಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಅಭಿಯಾನವೇ ನಡೆದಿದೆ.
ಸೆಪ್ಟೆಂಬರ್ 19ರಿಂದ ಯುಎಇನಲ್ಲಿ ನಡೆಯಲಿರುವ ಐಪಿಎಲ್ ಪಂದ್ಯಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಚೆನ್ನೈ ಸೂಪರ್ ಕಿಂಗ್ಸ್ ತಂಡದ ಮೂಲಕ 'ಎಂಎಸ್ಡಿ' ಆಟ ಮುಂದುವರಿಸಲಿದ್ದಾರೆ. 2019ರ ವಿಶ್ವಕಪ್ ಸೆಮಿ ಫೈನಲ್ನಲ್ಲಿ ನ್ಯೂಜಿಲೆಂಡ್ ಎದುರಿನ ಪಂದ್ಯವೇ ಅವರ ಕೊನೆಯ ಅಂತರರಾಷ್ಟ್ರೀಯ ಕ್ರಿಕೆಟ್. ವಿಕೆಟ್ ಕೀಪಿಂಗ್, ಬ್ಯಾಟಿಂಗ್ ಹಾಗೂ ನಾಯಕತ್ವದಲ್ಲಿ ನಡೆಸಿರುವ ಸಾಧನೆಗಳು ದಾಖಲೆಗಳಾಗಿ ಉಳಿದಿವೆ. ರಾಜಕೀಯ, ಸಿನಿಮಾ, ಉದ್ಯಮ ಸೇರಿದಂತೆ ವಿವಿಧ ಕ್ಷೇತ್ರಗಳ ದಿಗ್ಗಜರಲ್ಲಿ ಹಲವು ಮಂದಿ ಧೋನಿಯ ಅಭಿಮಾನಿಗಳಿದ್ದಾರೆ.
ರಾಹುಲ್ ದ್ರಾವಿಡ್, ಸೌರವ್ ಗಂಗೂಲಿ, ಯುವರಾಜ್ ಸಿಂಗ್, ಗೌತಮ್ ಗಂಭೀರ್, ಜಹೀರ್ ಖಾನ್ ಹಾಗೂ ವೀರೇಂದ್ರ ಸೆಹ್ವಾಗ್ ಸೇರಿದಂತೆ ಹಲವು ಆಟಗಾರರಿಗೆ ಸೂಕ್ತ ರೀತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕ್ರಿಕೆಟ್ ವೃತ್ತಿ ಬದುಕಿನಿಂದ ಬೀಳ್ಕೊಡುಗೆ ನೀಡಲಾಗಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ಅಭಿಮಾನಿಗಳು ಬೇಸರ ವ್ಯಕ್ತಪಡಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ. 'ವಿದಾಯ ಪಂದ್ಯ' ಬೇಕು ಎಂದು ಬಿಸಿಸಿಐಗೆ ಆಗ್ರಹಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ.
Dear @bcci, a request from an Indian Cricket fan.

Can u please arrange a farewell match having Ganguly, Dravid, Laxman, Yuvraj, Zaheer, #MSDhoni, #Raina, Gambhir?
These Indian Cricket greats & legends deserve a farewell match for their contribution to the game!#DhoniRetired pic.twitter.com/goubFSkGeI
ನಿವೃತ್ತರಾಗಿರುವ 11 ಜನ ಆಟಗಾರರ ತಂಡವನ್ನೇ ರಚಿಸಿ 'ಇದೋ ಪಂದ್ಯಕ್ಕೆ ತಂಡ ಸಿದ್ಧವಿದೆ. ನೀವೂ ತಂಡ ರಚಿಸಿ, ಎರಡೂ ತಂಡಗಳ ನಡುವೆ ಪಂದ್ಯ ನಡೆಸಿ' ಎಂದು ಅಭಿಮಾನಿಗಳು ಬಿಸಿಸಿಐ ಟ್ಯಾಗ್ ಮಾಡಿ ಟ್ವೀಟಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಸಚಿನ್ ನಂತರ ದೇಶದ ಯಾವುದೇ ಪ್ರಮುಖ ಆಟಗಾರರಿಗೆ ಸರಿಯಾದ ಬೀಳ್ಕೊಡುಗೆ ನೀಡಲಾಗಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ನೊಂದು ಪೋಸ್ಟ್ಗಳನ್ನು ಪ್ರಕಟಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ.

Dhoni's most celebrated moment will always be the 2011 World Cup but the 2007 T20 World Cup heralded the arrival of the T20 era & will ultimately be his most enduring legacy. The game changed forever between September 2007 & April 2008 & Dhoni was the emblem of that change.

Every cricketer with whom mid-late 90s kids had a fond memory associated with, has retired. Childhood officially over.
Not an azaadi cricket lovers wanted from.

Every cricketer has to end his journey one day, but still when someone you've gotten to know so closely announces that decision, you feel the emotion much more. What you've done for the country will always remain in everyone's heart...... pic.twitter.com/0CuwjwGiiS

I join millions of cricket fans across the globe to thank @msdhoni for his unparalleled contributions to Indian Cricket. His cool temperament has turned several hot encounters in India’s favour. Under his captaincy India was crowned World Champions twice in different formats.
