Indian Premier League 2023: Mahendra Singh Dhoni has so far scored 96 runs in just 47 balls this season. Dhoni’s strike rate during this period has been 204. After seeing Dhoni’s batting, many former players have also advised him to come up in the batting order. Now Dhoni has made it clear that his role is not to play more balls but to score more runs in less balls.
Chennai Super Kings won by 27 runs against Delhi Capitals. With this victory, now CSK’s place in the playoffs is almost confirmed. After the match against Delhi, Dhoni said that this pitch saw more turn than the pitch in the second innings. Our spinners use more seam than other bowlers. Although we did not know what would be a sufficient score on this pitch. I want our bowlers to try to bowl well and not think of taking wickets on every ball.
‘I have already told the team what I want to do’
Regarding his role in this season, Dhoni said that I have already told the team about what I want to do. Don’t rush me too much, I just want to play a few balls. This scheme has proved to be effective so far and I am also happy with it.
Regarding the batting order of Chennai Super Kings, Dhoni said that I am happy that Ravindra Jadeja and Moeen Ali got a chance to bat in this match. Apart from these, other batsmen had already got batting in one or the other match. Now the tournament is going to the final stage and in such a situation all your players should be fully prepared.
