MS Dhoni’s stunning conclusion to the Chennai Super Kings’ (CSK) run chase against the Delhi Capitals (DC), according to Aakash Chopra, made all cricket gurus seem foolish.
IPL 2021 As such, CSK chased down the 173-run goal with four wickets and two deliveries remaining to become the first club to qualify for the Indian Premier League (IPL) final in 2021. Dhoni smashed 18 runs off just six balls to lead the three-time champions to their seventh IPL final.
“Mahi maar Raha hai. Mahendra de-dan-a-dan Dhoni. Mahi hai to abhi bhi mumkin hai. MS Dhoni showed once again that whenever the book on cricket is written, he will write the final chapter, and it will be written on him. He knows it best; we all looked like fools in the end.” he said
“I was saying before this that this team is playing with nine players because Raina and the captain were not scoring runs. Now the captain has scored runs, Robbie has scored runs; now this team is playing with proper eleven men.” Chopra explained
Uthappa, who came in at No. 3 after Faf du Plessis was dismissed early, hit 63 runs off 44 balls and put together a 110-run second-wicket stand with Ruturaj Gaikwad.
MS Dhoni played some magnificent shots during his brief stay in the middle, according to Aakash Chopra.
Tom Curran
“Some of MS Dhoni’s shots, the six he hit off Avesh Khan. The leg-side boundary was short of course, but it was an 84m six. After that, he hit Tom Curran towards covers because it was shorter on that side. Absolutely sensational, 18 runs off six balls.” He elaborated
Following the lows of last year, CSK has made an incredible return. They’ll be hoping to win their fourth IPL title on Friday, as it may be the last time their stalwart captain leads them out on the field.
