Dhoni's presence affecting balance as CSK face Punjab
Hindustan Times Jammu
|April 08, 2025
The distinct lack of firepower in Mahendra Singh Dhoni's death overs batting is a sensitive area that Chennai Super Kings need to address ahead of their away IPL clash against Punjab Kings here on Tuesday.
MULLANPUR:
In one of their worst starts to an IPL season, CSK have now completed a hat-trick of defeats, all while chasing. While Punjab Kings lost their previous game against Rajasthan Royals at home but on current form as well as on paper, Shreyas Iyer's side looks more well-rounded than CSK who are grappling with combination problems.
Dhoni's presence at the back-end, which once was considered a boon, is turning into bane for the 'Yellow Brigade'. But such is the aura of the man playing his 18th IPL season (only one apart from Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma), that no one in the CSK ranks can probably walk up to the man and show him the mirror.
