College mistakenly 'fails' an absent MS Dhoni


Fans of skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni would say that it's just not cricket. The college authorities initially declared that Dhoni, who did not appear for his B Com part-I examination, had 'failed' his exams. The mistake has since been rectified.

The second semester results of B Com part-I results were announced on Tuesday by the Ranchi University. The list, which appeared at the St Xavier's college, had 'fail' before Dhoni's name. The family members and fans of the cricketer were shocked at the news and the issue was brought to the notice of the college administration.

The college administration was prompt to verify the facts and rectify the mistake. "It was a mistake and the list has been revised," Nicholas Tete, principal of St Xavier's College, told reporters. Now Dhoni has been marked 'absent', a source in the college administration said.

Dhoni is a part-I student of St Xavier college of Ranchi. He could not appear in the second semester examination held in May and June. At the time Dhoni was in South Africa for the Indian Premier League (IPL) T20 matches.

To become a graduate, Dhoni will have to clear six semesters in five years. According to the college, a student has to clear six semesters in three years. If a student fails to clear a semester, then the student will be given a maximum of five years to clear all semesters. Dhoni has already cleared the first semester and now he has to clear five more semesters in four years.

Dhoni took admission in St Xavier's College last year under sports quota. He was exempted from attending classes. Advertisement
