AB de Villiers gave advice to CSK, said- As long as MS Dhoni is in the team, he should be the captain.
Former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) batsman AB de Villiers believes that, if MS Dhoni is still a part of the playing eleven then he should lead Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Now AB de Villiers has made this comment after Chennai was eliminated from the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 after losing to RCB at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. With Dhoni at the tail end of his career, the wicketkeeper-batsman decided to hand over the reins to young opener Ruturaj Gaikwad. Although Gaikwad captained well, he could not take his team to the playoffs. CSK’s points remained equal to those of Royal Challengers, but on the basis of net run rate, Royal Challengers left behind the defending champions and secured a place in the playoffs. As long as MS Dhoni is in CSK, he should be the captain of the team- AB de Villiers During a discussion on Jio Cinema AB de Villiers Said, “But being around MS, I always felt that it would be a waste not to have him as captain. He had tried this before also. It didn’t work (when Jadeja was replaced in the middle of the season). And unfortunately, this year, yes, you have to look at the results.” He further added, “They played well in most of the matches, but at the end of the day they could not qualify for the knockouts. It is definitely not because of Gaikwad’s captaincy. Although I always feel that when MS is around, he should be the captain.” Dhoni is arguably the most successful captain in the history of IPL. He has led in 226 matches, won 133 times and has a winning percentage of around 60. CSK has won five IPL trophies under the captaincy of MS Dhoni.
“If Virat wants to win the trophy, he will have to leave RCB”- Kevin Pietersen gave a strange advice to VK
The former English captain further said, “I really think it should be Delhi (Delhi Capitals). Delhi is where Virat needs to go. Virat can go away, and stay at home most of the time, I know he has a house in Delhi. He has a young family. He can spend more time there. He is a Delhi boy, why can’t he go back? Delhi is also desperate like Bengaluru. I think it is time for Virat to think long term. Beckham is gone, Ronaldo is gone, Messi is gone, Harry Kane left Spurs and went to Bayern Munich.
