In spite of the loss and loss of a chance to ensure a season-finisher billet, MS Dhoni appeared to be feeling jaunty.
On Sunday, Chennai Super Kings had a chance to become the first team in IPL 2023 to guarantee a playoff spot.
Gujarat Titans, still the table clinchers, lost their chance on Friday after misfortune to Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede.
CSK, on the other hand, struggled against a resurgent Kolkata Knight Riders team, losing by six wickets at the Chepauk.
Except for Shivam Dube, CSK’s batters in their season’s final home game managed only 144 for six.
MS Dhoni seemed happy even though his team lost.
According to the custom, the horrible group skipper addresses the reporters just after the match and before the procedures head to the post-match show.
As a result, the CSK skipper took the microphone from the commentator and smiled as Simon Doull asked his first question. Doull’s voice was drowned out by a tremendous roar from the Chepauk crowd, leaving the captain speechless.
Before he moved closer to the speaker, Dhoni first indicated that he could not understand the question.
The camera then, at that point, discovered him expanding the volume. Even though the crowd continued to chant “Dhoni,” Doull once more repeated his question. This time the skipper was able to hear it.
When we batted first, I don’t think we could have reached 180. I believe the dew had a significant impact.
In the event that you contrast the primary innings with the subsequent innings. There was much more buy for the spinners in the main innings and that truly got to us,” said Dhoni.
In shielding the low aggregate, CSK bowlers got going optimistically. As KKR decreased to 33 for three in the fifth over.
However, a noteworthy organization of 99 runs among Rinku and Rana, both of whom scored their half-hundreds of years.
Assisted KKR with nullifying the CSK spinners through the center-overs and set up a truly necessary win.
