I'm sick of seeing the same dumb comments: Jimmy Neesham clarifies after deleting his tweet on MS Dhoni's run-out

The biggest turning point of Indian Premier League 2019 final between Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians was Mahendra Singh Dhoni's controversial run-out. The umpire decision divided many fans, at that time New Zealand allrounder Jimmy Neesham also gave his opinion on that to which he received a lot of flak from Dhoni fans on social media.

Neesham wrote on his deleted Twitter post, "I love how passionate some fans are about our sport. I have huge respect for MS but how anyone could see the below photo and say it's not out truly astounds me."

Within a few hours, Neesham was targetted by many fans for his tweet.

One of the users on Twitter posted," Neesh, there are two sides to a coin mate.  Your very same picture at the exact moment from another angle. Care to Google about optical illusion maybe?" 

To which Neesham gave a cheeky reply and wrote, "I might google optical illusion if I was 4 years old."

Later the Kiwi batsman deleted his post after flooded by loads of hate comments by the Chennai Super Kings and Dhoni fans.

Frustrated Neesham cleared his stance on deleting the post regarding Dhoni's dismissal and posted, "I've deleted my tweet about MS Dhoni's runout, not because I've changed my mind, but because: 1. I'm sick of seeing the same dumb comments in my feed 200 times a day. 2. I just don't actually care. Please don't bother tweeting me about it again. Have a good day everyone."

While chasing a modest total of 150 in the final, the Dhoni run out happened on Hardik Pandya's delivery in the 13th over.
