Kaif highlights how Tushar Deshpande MS Dhoni (Photo Source: Getty Images) Former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif is very impressed with the captaincy of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain MS Dhoni. Kaif talked about how players like Tushar Deshpande and Ajinkya Rahane grew under Dhoni’s captaincy and took their performance to the next level. The former cricketer highlighted that both the players did not have a very good IPL career before moving to CSK. But his career changed only after coming to CSK. During a conversation on a show on Star Sports, Tushar Deshpande said, “You can talk about the cameos of Tushar Deshpande and Ajinkya Rahane, especially in the final.” I can say that these are players who do not have a good record in IPL, but when they go to Dhoni and Chennai, I wonder what happens to them, what kind of special guidance they get that everyone wants to play well. Starts. Dhoni has this quality which helps players to be fit, alert and play well for the team.” Now Irfan Pathan gave his opinion regarding MS Dhoni Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan was also present in the discussion and talked about the difficulties that MS Dhoni might face as a captain in the IPL 2024 season. Deepak Chahar will be back in action, but his form may not be that good due to his return from injury. He said, “This time Deepak Chahar is coming back from injury, Pathirana’s performance for Sri Lanka has not been good, the form is also not very good, Conway has also got injured. Now if your 3 or 4 key players are injured or their form is not good then the challenge of team management becomes more difficult. So there is a challenge for MS Dhoni but since we know Dhoni is a mastermind, he will do something and manage as he does every year.”

Special Opinion: Won the series 4-1 but still some questions troubled me, batsmen are getting defeated in front of spinners at home.
In recent times, Team India’s batsmen have been seen struggling against the spinners. Virat Kohli (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The Indian team won the five-match Test series against England by 4-1. By winning this Test series, the Indian team strengthened its claim for the first place in the World Test Championship. After playing the World Test Championship final twice in a row, Team India has staked its claim to play the Test Championship final this time too. The Indian team may have won this series by 4-1, but in this Test series and the Test series played at home in the last few years, one shortcoming of the Indian team has been sharply exposed. Such a deficiency has been exposed in which the Indian team once had expertise. In the last few years, the Indian team has proved to be poor in playing spin. The Indian team is now facing problems in playing spin in India itself. Whereas earlier this was the mantra of victory for the Indian team. He used to prepare spin tracks against foreign teams and defeat them. Now it has happened that when foreign teams tour India, they trouble the Indian team by including two-three good spinners. After coming here, even their average bowlers become great bowlers. Whereas in the past, Indian teams have batted brilliantly on spin-friendly pitches in domestic and subcontinental conditions. However, at present the Indian team seems to be struggling completely in facing spin. The bowling of the Indian team has been excellent in India since the beginning. Now it has become stronger while there has been a decline in the art of playing spin in batting. The Indian team which once used to trouble the opponents with its spin bowling in the 70s. At the same time, in today’s time our batsmen get troubled. In the 70s, there was the famous quartet of Eerappalli Prasanna, BS Chandrasekhar, Venkat Raghavan and Bishan Singh Bedi, who used to dominate against foreign teams on Indian pitches. These people had created so much fear in the minds of the foreign batsmen that the teams touring India started practicing spin a month in advance, but still their quartet did not give the batsmen a chance to do anything special. After that, from 1980 to 2010, the Indian team had such batsmen who left their mark not only in India but also abroad. There were some batsmen who were adept at playing spin at home and were also adept at playing swing and pace if they toured abroad. During that time, many such great spinners also came to India, who left their mark in the whole world but bowed down before the Indian batsmen. Many such greats came from Shane Warne to Muttiah Muralitharan, but Indian batsmen faced those great spinners boldly and also showed the world the art of playing spin. What happened in the recent past that what was our strength has become our weakness. Indian players who have grown up playing on spin-friendly pitches are not able to face spin effectively today.
