One of the most experienced campaigners of the Chennai Super Kings, Faf du Plessis, has underlined the importance of MS Dhoni in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Faf du Plessis has also backed MS Dhoni’s decision to continue his stint in the IPL because of his greatness and fans’ affection towards him.

Notably, MS Dhoni, on Sunday, announced that he will continue his stint in the Indian Premier League after having retired from international cricket earlier this year on August 15. Dhoni also emphasized on the reconstruction of Chennai Super Kings for the next year, now that they are eliminated from the tournament and have played their last game in IPL 2020.

Faf du Plessis Hails MS Dhoni

“It’s great. When you say CSK, you think of MS Dhoni. The IPL needs MS Dhoni to play, he’s such a big player, the fans love him so much,” Faf du Plessis said in an interview with Lungi Ngidi after the game against Kings XI Punjab.

As soon as Dhoni announced that he will continue playing for CSK in the Yellow jersey, not only cricket fans, but veterans all around the globe also reacted ecstatically to the news.

Chennai Super Kings Have Had A Forgetful IPL 2020

Chennai Super Kings and MS Dhoni have had one of their worst IPL seasons this year in the UAE. They have been dominated by other teams throughout the tournament and the team has failed to impress in any of the departments of the game. They have finished on the 7th spot in the points table and that just goes on to show how poor a season CSK have had by their standards.

However, they have bounced back quite well in the last 3 games of the tournament as they won all the three games in succession. Ruturaj Gaikwad has emerged as a very bright prospect as he has smashed 3 consecutive half-centuries in the last three games, becoming the first-ever CSK player to do so.
