33 Runs In 1 Over: CSK Coach Explains Why MS Dhoni Went With Khaleel Ahmed vs RCB In 19th Over
Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming backed pacer Khaleel Ahmed to the hilt despite leaking 33 runs in the 19th over against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, but said they will be exploring more options going forward in the Indian Premier League. CSK skipper MS Dhoni turned to Ahmed despite the impressive Anshul Kamboj (3-0-25-0) having one over remaining, but the left-arm quick wilted under Romario Shepherd's assault. "Khaleel has done really well for us this season, so, there's no reason for MS to have changed that. Kamboj is growing into his role nicely. He has the ability to do death (over bowling). He will be an option going forward, but there was no reason why Khaleel would be replaced to do that," said Fleming in the post-match press conference on Saturday night.

"MS Dhoni Doesn't Have Magic Wand..." Stephen Fleming's Fiery Reply On CSK's Poor Form In IPL 2025
Ahead of his side's away game against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), Chennai Super Kings (CSK) head coach Stephen Fleming said that after five successive losses, the five-time champions will be working with stand-in skipper MS Dhoni to turn things around, but the legend is not a "soothsayer" and does not have a "magic wand". The fourth-placed LSG (with four wins and two losses in six games) will be aiming to continue their fine home run against a bottom-placed CSK, who have secured just one win in six matches so far.
MS Dhoni Achieves Embarrassing IPL Record Amid Growing Retirement Chatter
It was yet another embarrassing performance from MS Dhoni as he failed to complete the run chase for Chennai Super Kings during their IPL 2025 encounter against Delhi Capitals on Sunday. Although he did score an unbeaten 30 off 26 deliveries, it was not enough to clinch the match for his side. During his stay at the crease, Dhoni slammed his first boundary - a six off Mukesh Kumar - on the 19th ball of his innings. This was the slowest any batter has taken to hit a boundary this season. Dhoni stitched together a partnership with Vijay Shankar but the duo never looked in control of the match as they slumped to a loss.
"It Was Tough To Watch": Blunt CSK Coach On MS Dhoni, Vijay Shankar Slow Stand In Losing Cause vs DC
Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming said MS Dhoni is "still going strong" and putting an end to the former skipper's run in the IPL is not a role assigned to him. The presence of Dhoni's parents -- Pan Singh and Devaki Devi -- at the Chepauk for CSK's match against Delhi Capitals on Saturday had fuelled speculation about an imminent his retirement. "No, that's not my role to put an end to it. I have no idea. I'm just enjoying working with him. He's still going strong. I don't even ask these days. You guys are the ones that ask (about retirement)," said Fleming in the post-match press conference.
On Chepauk Home Advantage, CSK Coach's Honest Verdict: "Last Couple Of Years..."
Following the loss against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 on Friday, Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming stated that the five-time champions have failed to understand the Chennai pitch in the last few years, reported ESPNcricinfo. During the IPL 2025 mega auction, the Chennai-based franchise went behind the spinners as the MA Chidam Stadium helps the slow bowlers more during the match. However, that was not the case in their second home game of the 18th edition of the cash-rich league, as they lost to RCB by 50 runs.
India Test Icon, Bought By CSK In 2021, Counters Stephen Fleming's "Home Advantage" Remark
Indian Test legend Cheteshwar Pujara believes that Chennai Super Kings is "one franchise" that has always prepared tracks at the Chepauk as per its strengths and hence finds it difficult to digest head coach Stephen Fleming's comment of "not having any home advantage". CSK suffered their heaviest home defeat while chasing, losing by 50 runs to Rajat Patidar-led Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Pujara, who was with the franchise for a season in 2021, also indicated that CSK middle-order comprising Deepak Hooda, Shivam Dube, Sam Curran and Mahendra Singh Dhoni might have to shoulder more responsibility.
