MS Dhoni? Virat Kohli? Or Man United's Andre Onana? Fans online continue to attempt to decipher who the Protean legend could possibly be referring to. From shunned names making their impact felt to big ones failing to fire on all cylinders, the ongoing IPL 2025 season has been a mixed bag of emotions for all to witness. But now, it seems like someone has irked the legendary Dale Steyn with their play, as the South African pace legend vented his frustration at what remains a mystery player currently, claiming that some were just not meant for the big stage.
In a cryptic post that was uploaded to his official X handle, Steyn threw shots at what people have assumed to be a major player in this season’s IPL, seemingly calling them out for their inadept play. “There’s some guys that really shouldn’t be at this league," Steyn wrote in a short yet sharp tweet on X. Many have been left puzzled at who the Protean legend may be commenting on, with several believing it to apply to a varied list of players: from Liam Livingstone (for his failure to find form lately) to Virat Kohli (for his seemingly animated reaction towards KL Rahul) to the talisman MS Dhoni (for his deflated and poorly-timed performance so far).
Some others have deliberated over whether Styen could be talking about a different sport altogether, with a handful correlating his tweet to be aimed at Manchester United keeper Andre Onana, who put up a shambolic performance at the UEFA Europa League quarterfinal against Lyon right around the time Steyn tweeted the message. With Steyn’s affinity for football, and especially Premier League club Chelsea, having been well-established, it is also likely that the Protean legend could be referring to a footballing league as well. Regardless, Steyn has left the conversation open for deliberation over whom he may be referring to in which league, with no replies or tweets yet expounding on the same from his side.
