Jadeja’s Dhoni Post Breaks the Internet Amid CSK’s Struggles

Chennai Super Kings (CSK), five-time IPL champions, have had a rocky start in the 18th edition of the tournament. After a win in their opening match against Mumbai Indians, Ruturaj Gaikwad’s team suffered consecutive losses to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Rajasthan Royals. However, all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has reassured the franchise’s fans, promising better days ahead.

The day after Rajasthan Royals’ defeat in Guwahati, Ravindra Jadeja posted a picture with MS Dhoni at the center. In the caption, he assured that the franchise’s luck would improve, writing, “Things will change.”

“Dhoni’s Limited Batting Role and CSK’s Narrow Defeat Against Rajasthan Royals

Ravindra Jadeja and MS Dhoni tried their best to get CSK over the line against Rajasthan Royals earlier. The equation was 39 off the final two overs. Both batters hit 19 runs in the penultimate over of the match, bowled by Tushar Deshpande.

In the final over, CSK needed 20 runs, and Sandeep Sharma had the ball in his hand. The first delivery was wide, and MS Dhoni looked set to achieve the unthinkable.

However, Sandeep Sharma and Shimron Hetmyer combined forces to dismiss the wicketkeeper-batter on the first ball of the over and CSK’s hopes of a memorable victory were dashed. In the end, CSK came up short by six runs, and Rajasthan Royals registered their first victory of the season.

Dhoni got out for 16 off 11 balls, while Jadeja remained unbeaten on 32 off 22 balls.

MS Dhoni walked out to bat at No.7 against Rajasthan Royals. Earlier, the former India captain batted at No.9 against RCB, which led to a huge furore. After the game against RR, CSK head coach Stephen Fleming explained that Dhoni could not bat for a longer period due to his dodgy knees.

“MS judges it. His body is, his knees aren’t what they used to be. And he’s moving okay, but there’s still an attrition aspect to it. He can’t bat 10 overs running full stick. So he will gauge on the day what he can give us. If the game’s in the balance like today, he will go a little bit earlier, and he backs other players when other opportunities are up. So he’s balancing that,” said Fleming.
