MS Dhoni And Chennai Super Kings Look For Another Win
MS Dhoni and Chennai Super Kings have once again done an exceptional job after winning the toss at home to invite SRH to have a go with the bat first. Chennai’s bowlers worked in perfect unison to restrict SRH to just 134 runs in their designated 20 overs at the loss of 7 wickets.
MS Dhoni was on fire behind the stumps picking up a stumping and a catch as the former Indian skipper continues to be a rock-solid member of CSK’s eleven. Chennai have a big chance to go for their 4th win in their sixth outing and bag two crucial points.
CSK have been amazing when it comes to their batting this season with different players from Devon Conway, and Ruturaj Gaikwad to Shivam Dube and MS Dhoni stepping up to the occasion and delivering with their team in need.
