Recently retired Gautam Gambhir, in an explosive interview took a pot shot at former India captain MS Dhoni who decided to initially bench him for the 2012 CB series involving Australia and Sri Lanka.

The former star opener revealed that Dhoni decided to bench him, Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag together in the XI, as they would leak runs on the field in Australia.

Gambhir had criticized Dhoni's selection policy in the 2012 CB series on Saturday.

However, people on twitter were not happy after Gambhir’s move and went on to slam the former Indian star opener.

Gautam Gambhir claims to be an 'honest' man but he chose to criticize MS Dhoni, selectors etc after his retirement. So, he certainly wasn't honest to them all these years

Year 2050, Rainy Season:

Gautam Gambhir :

'All these rains are because of Dhoni. He was not as honest as me towards the nature & nature got angry and taking revenge back on us. This is a massive shock to me. Dhoni shouldn't have done this"

Totally with Dhoni here. He saw the downfall coming from a long distance and put the foot on the pedal exactly at the right time in 2013.

If not for his massive call, Shikhar Dhawan would have been lost somewhere in domestic circuit. https://t.co/kxCuBj840S

Gambhir phir se Dhoni ke piche pad gaya. Dhoni's decision was absolutely right . If you cant digest a Long term decision that's your problem . IPL se captaincy experts ban jate hai Saab .

Very easy to comment on something after retirement. Very easy to take out the past and crib about it like a baby after retirement. Instead retire like a man and stick to it without cribbing about past decisions #Gambhir #Dhoni

Gautam Gambhir has once again proven his sickly attitude by badmouthing MS Dhoni. Navjot Siddhu refused to say a word about what happened in the dressing room after he retired midway through the series in England. Which scenario sees the righteousness upheld? Well.

We have good respect for you gambhir. Why suddenly you react like this. Just think about ur innings in world Cup finals. When you got out without hitting century, have you watched @msdhoni reaction??? If you really seen it U would not spoken so. Try to respect ur your teammates

I honestly wish good for you post retirement but common man stop being such a big hypocrite, you say Dhoni is the best captain you have ever played under in an interview and than in the next interview you give out such statementshttps://t.co/j7GrbyaxR0
