The IPL will continue from September 19, and MS Dhoni-led CSK will take on guarding champions Mumbai Indians in Dubai.

Talking on Star Sports appear Game Plan, former Group India batsman Gautam Gambhir talked about why MS Dhoni ought to work on the CSK batting order.

“MS was a player who would’ve actually batted at number 4 or 5 but we’ve seen in the first leg that he normally bats at number 6 or 7,” said Gautam Gambhir.

“There are times when he’s really pushed Sam Curran sometime recently him as well.”

However, Gambhir, a two-time IPL winner with Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) opined that MS Dhoni is attempting to be a guide. And a wicketkeeper, but his plan is to not bat up the order that might harm CSK within the long run.

“MS Dhoni is probably trying to be a mentor and a wicketkeeper, who can lead the side and keep wickets. If the situation comes to a point where he probably has to play 8 or 10 balls. He can just go out there and whack them,” said Gambhir.

“It’s aiming to be troublesome for him, since once you’re not playing worldwide cricket. The IPL may be a very troublesome tournament, it’s not like CPL and other leagues. IPL is where you confront top-quality bowlers.

“For me, I think the biggest challenge for CSK will be that the top-order needs to fire because that’s not the case anymore,” he added.
