MS Dhoni acted immediately after Ravindra Jadeja was forced to change his bat during the ongoing match between Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
The incident took place immediately after Jadeja walked out to bat. The Indian allrounder had to come out to bat inside the powerplay after CSK lost two wickets inside five overs.
CSK again struggles with the bat
Asked to bat first, the hosts were off to a disastrous start as Mohammed Shami dismissed Shaik Rasheed for a golden duck on the very first delivery of the match.
Sam Curran could not make an impact with the bat either and was dismissed by Harshal Patel. The England star departed after scoring 9 runs off 10 balls. Curran was replaced by Jadeja in the middle.
However, even before Jadeja could take the strike, he was asked to change the bat after it failed the gauge test. The on-field umpire checked Jadeja's bat, and the gauge did not pass through it. As a result, Jadeja was forced to change it.

Talking about the game, CSK were on 73/3 after 9 overs at the time of writing this report. After losing the wickets of Rasheed and Curran, CSK also lost the wicket of Ayush Mhatre inside the powerplay. In the sixth over, Pat Cummins dismissed the youngster to reduce CSK to 47/3.
Ayush Mhatre impresses everyone
Mhatre departed after scoring 30 runs off 19 balls. Jadeja and Dewald Brevis were batting in the middle at the time of writing this report.
Both CSK and SRH will be desperate to win the ongoing game to keep alive their slim chances of progressing to the playoffs. Both teams have 2 wins from the first 8 games and need something remarkable to progress ahead of the league stage.
