Chennai Super Kings dropped to the second position on the points table on Monday afterlosing by 3 wickets to Delhi Capitals in a low-scoring encounter in Dubai. CSK put up 136 runs on the board in their 20 overs after being put into bat by DC skipper Rishabh Pant. Ambati Rayudu was the top scorer with an unbeaten knock of 55 from 43 deliveries. The pitch wasn’t the easiest to bat on with the ball not coming on to the bat and that ensured even DC batters struggled to get going. Eventually, it was a cameo of 28 runs off 18 deliveries from West Indies batter Shimron Hetmyer that saw DC through.
While there was no question about the pitch being a difficult one for batters, CSK captain MS Dhoni’s knock of 18 runs off 27 deliveries is something which left many wondering what could have been if the in-form Ravindra Jadeja had come in to bat above his skipper. Jadeja, who has time and again bailed CSK out with quickfire knocks in the death overs, got to play just two deliveries.
“The honest truth is if you are picking a Chennai batting unit on a must-win day, you could argue that MS Dhoni should come behind Jadeja, Bravo and Thakur, with the way that he is playing. That is just the honest truth,” Vaughan said, while in conversation with veteran cricket commentator Harsha Bhogle and cricket presenter Gaurav Kapur.
