IPL 2024: Chennai Super Kings have once again faced defeat in IPL 2024. Contrary to all predictions, CSK could not do anything against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Even veterans are raising questions regarding this. The biggest question is about the role of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Regarding this, Rituraj Gaikwad is also being asked that 'Why is Dhoni not being sent first in the batting order?' In the match against Hyderabad, Chennai batted very slowly in the last overs. Everyone expected Dhoni to be fielded early, but when he did so, there were only three balls left to play.
Michael Vaughan criticized Ruturaj
Michael Vaughan has criticized the new captain of Chennai Super Kings Ruturaj for this. He said that considering the situation, Dhoni should have been sent in the batting order first. Dhoni had shown his batting prowess in the last match. Then he played a tremendous inning of 37 runs in just 16 balls against Delhi Capitals. Despite such a good game, Dhoni got very little chance to play against SRH. In this regard, the former England captain said that I was surprised to see why Dhoni did not come to bat early!
Irfan Pathan gave this argument
Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan said that if Dhoni had come to bat first, he would have performed better against bowlers like Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jaydev Undkat. Irfan said in a tweet, 'Given the preparation of the pitch, use of offcutters, Dhoni would have been the best option.'
Rituraj told the reason for defeat!
After the match, CSK captain Ruturaj attributed the defeat to slow batting and excessive play in the powerplay in the last over. He said, 'To be honest, the pitch was very slow. SRH bowled very well in the last overs. We batted well in the beginning. We expected the pitch to be slow, but it turned out to be much slower than that.
