With MS Dhoni at the helm, the Indian Premier League is back. Fans were furious when Dhoni gave captaincy to opener Ruturaj Gaikwad on the eve of the Chennai Super Kings‘ season-opening game against Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Due to his poor batting position, the veteran, a CSK regular, has only batted twice this season. He made his batting debut in Delhi’s third match, a 20-run loss.
Despite the defeat, Dhoni astonished the Vizag audience with an undefeated 37 runs off 16 balls, which included four fours and three sixes. Chasing 192 runs, CSK reached 171/6 in 20 overs. On Friday, he batted once more, but only faced two balls and managed one run as CSK fell short of Sunrisers Hyderabad by six wickets.
Dhoni called his performance alongside Michael Vaughan during their “farewell tour” in Vizag. The legendary Englishman also compared him to Jurgen Klopp, who will be leaving Liverpool at the end of this current campaign.Â

Dhoni has to be the one. 37 out of 16 for the entire field. Remembering that CSK was playing away in yellow is crucial. Dhoni is on a farewell tour and may play another year. He went on, “They all want to watch MS Dhoni.”
“When I think about the UK, I think of Jurgen Klopp.” Klopp left his position at Liverpool. The final ten games are viewed by Liverpool supporters as a farewell tour. As he said in an interview with Cricbuzz, “CSK fans are doing the same with MS Dhoni.”
Dhoni and CSK are currently in third place in the points standings for the Indian Premier League 2024. They have a total of four points from four matches, with two victories and two losses. Monday is the day that the reigning champions take on the Kolkata Knight Riders, who have been defeated in both of their most recent matches.
