Did MS Dhoni’s Hat-Trick Of Sixes Come At A Cost? Video Leaves Fans Worried | Cricket News

[ad_1] MS Dhoni in action for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2024© X (formerly Twitter)MS Dhoni left both fans and experts completely spellbound as the Chennai Super Kings batter slammed Hardik Pandya for three back-to-back sixes during the IPL 2024 match against Mumbai Indians on Sunday. The Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai was witness to a trademark Dhoni knock that saw the veteran wicket-keeper batter score 20 runs in just 4 balls at an astonishing strike rate of 500. At 42 years old, Dhoni has vastly limited himself to a finisher's role for his franchise and his knock was instrumental in taking the total beyond the 200-run mark. However, it looked like the knock came at some cost as Dhoni was seen limping with padding around his knee in a video posted on social media.MS Dhoni last night at the...

MS Dhoni’s Brilliant Gesture For Heartbroken Rohit Sharma After MI vs CSK Game | Cricket News

The Mumbai Indians stalwart did his best, scoring an unbeaten knock of 105 runs but lacked support from the other end as MI floundered in the chase of 207 runs on Sunday.

“Better Death Bowler Compared To Hardik Pandya”: Wasim Jaffer On MI Captain’s Blunder | Cricket News

[ad_1] Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer feels that Mumbai Indians skipper Hardik Pandya's decision to bowl the 20th over instead of Akash Madhwal in the Chennai Super Kings innings was a "debatable" decision. Jasprit Bumrah bowled the 19th over, which left Hardik with the option to bowl the final over or let Akash Madhwal finish off the innings for MI. Hardik took the mantle and ended up conceding 26 runs, which was laced with MS Dhoni's hattrick of sixes, which powered CSK to 206/4, which seemed like a far-fetched thought.While chasing 207, Hardik came out to bat when the asking rate was under 13. The MI skipper was expected to live up to his reputation as finisher. However, a bouncer from Tushar Deshpande sealed his trip back to the dressing room."Well, I think if I have to criticis...

“Whenever MI Lost, Hardik Pandya Had A Big Role To Play”: Irfan Pathan’s Strong Charge | Cricket News

[ad_1] Former allrounder Irfan Pathan on Monday questioned Hardik Pandya's leadership skills, saying his inability to adapt to match situations and failure to come up with a proper plan has cost Mumbai Indians dearly so far in this IPL. Hardik, who replaced Rohit Sharma as captain of MI this season, has received a lot of flak from fans and former players alike following the five-time champions' dismal run so far."Hardik needs to manage MI really well. Whenever MI lost, Pandya had a big role to play," Pathan said on Star Sports Pressroom."Even yesterday, Akash Madhwal didn't bowl the last over, you need to give responsibility to him. When Shreyas Gopal got the wicket of Rachin Ravindra, why didn't you give him another over? He only bowled one over... there was some slowness in the pitch a...

[ad_1] Virat Kohli has been one of the few positives in an otherwise blow hot, blow cold campaign of Royal Challengers Bengaluru in IPL 2024. The former Indian cricket team captain has already scored a ton and two half-centuries in six matches to lead the run-scoring charts.
