MS Dhoni Favoured Players Who Set Hookah for Him – Irfan Pathan’s Explosive Claim
Irfan Pathan claims Dhoni favoured players who set hookah for him, sparking controversy as video goes viral online.
Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan has sparked a storm with his latest remarks about MS Dhoni. In a video that has now gone viral, Pathan shared an old story from the 2004 VB Series in Australia, where he asked Dhoni for advice after struggling with his bowling. Dhoni’s response, according to Pathan, was blunt yet positive.
Pathan explained that Dhoni simply told him not to worry too much, adding that sometimes it is better to stay calm instead of over-explaining or arguing. He also mentioned how the media often twists such conversations, but stressed that he has always maintained respect, especially given his background as a Pathan.
But the former cricketer didn’t stop there. He went on to make a more controversial claim, suggesting that Dhoni favoured certain players off the field. Without naming names, Pathan hinted that some players who used to “set hookah” for Dhoni were given more chances in the team, while those who refused did not find the same support.

The comments have set social media buzzing, with fans debating whether Pathan’s words were taken out of context or if he was hinting at bias during Dhoni’s captaincy days.
