You want to make a good start to your captaincy career with a win and that is what happened. What was impressive was the variation in his bowling. Look how they used Mustafizur. The way he used Mustafizur was absolutely amazing. He kept rotating Deepak Chahar and relied on Tushar Deshpande for the final over. I think given that Tushar Deshpande had conceded 25 runs in an over, he had the opportunity to use another bowler, but he still showed confidence in Tushar Deshpande, and Deshpande did that with a brilliant final over. responded to.” He further added, “So, yes, I think the captaincy was the most impressive. And we see here, of course, he has MS Dhoni around him, who guides him, tells him and encourages him. Sometimes, even a small gesture from an experienced and accomplished person like MSD makes a big difference.”

IPL 2024: ‘Dhoni’s presence will increase Gaikwad’s problems’ – MSD fans will be enraged by Wasim Jaffer’s statement regarding change in CSK captaincy.

(Image Source: CSK/X) Indian Premier League 2024: Former Indian cricketer and commentator Wasim Jaffer has criticized MS Dhoni for leaving the captaincy of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) before IPL 2024 and handing over the reins to Ruturaj Gaikwad.MS Dhoni) has raised questions on the timing of the decision. MS Dhoni surprised everyone and announced his resignation from the captaincy just a day before the first match of IPL 2024 between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). Actually, Ruturaj Gaikwad was seen in the captains’ photoshoot for IPL 2024 on March 21, only after which everyone came to know about Dhoni’s decision. The timing of MS Dhoni leaving the captaincy like this was not right: Wasim Jaffer Meanwhile, Wasim Jaffer believes that the timing of Dhoni leaving the captaincy like this was not right. The former batsman said that if Dhoni was not part of the team, the move would have been more appropriate. He also expressed concern that Dhoni’s presence in CSK could potentially create challenges for new captain Ruturaj Gaikwad. “No, I don’t think it was the right time for MS Dhoni to resign as captain,” Wasim Jaffer was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo. I think it would have made more sense if MS Dhoni was not part of the team. If he had retired and was not in the team, this timing could have been right. If that had happened, things would have become much easier for the new captain.” “If Dhoni was not there, then…” Wasim Jaffer further said, “Since he is still a part of the team, things are going to become difficult for Ruturaj Gaikwad. Ruturaj Gaikwad takes a decision or not, and whether Dhoni agrees with that decision or not. What, will he like those decisions? And you are on your own, and we all know that Ruturaj Gaikwad would have been the next captain of CSK. But I think if Dhoni was not there, all this would have been much easier.”

Kohli will be seen playing on the cricket field for the first time after the birth of son Akay. Virat Kohli. (Image Source: IPL-BCCI) IPL 2024 is going to start from today and in the opening match, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will face Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. However, considering Virat Kohli’s record on this ground, this is not an ideal place for him. Kohli will be seen playing on the cricket field for the first time after the birth of son Akay. Kohli had left the five-match Test series against England because his wife Anushka Sharma recently gave birth to a son. Now after that break, Virat has returned for the upcoming season of IPL. Last time, Virat Kohli played a fighting innings and scored a half-century against Australia in the league stage match of the ODI World Cup at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. Therefore, he will hope to continue the same form here in IPL 2024.

Despite being a good batsman of spin, he has had to struggle here. He has been able to score only two half-centuries. RCB has also faced several defeats on this ground, including the 2011 final against MS Dhoni & Co. Nonetheless, RCB won three matches during the 2021 season. Kohli has not looked impressive here, but what is more worrying is his strike rate. He has scored runs at a strike rate of only 125. The last time CSK and RCB started the IPL season in Chennai, Kohli was out after scoring 6 runs in just 12 balls, his second lowest score at the stadium.
