"Recommended Aniket Verma, Priyansh Arya, Etc. To CSK": Scout Makes Explosive Revelation

Chennai Super Kings are having a tough time in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The five-time champions opened their campaign with a thumping win over the arch-rivals Mumbai Indians but then succumbed against Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Rajasthan Royals. In both the losses, CSK's batting lineup faltered and failed to take the side across the line. To make the matters worse, the legendary MS Dhoni, who was once considered as one of the best finishers, also could not perform as per the expectations.

Former Indian cricket team skipper MS Dhoni is widely regarded as one of the best finishers in the game. However, in the recent past, he has failed to successfully complete run chases on multiple occasions for Chennai Super Kings in the IPL. The situation was once again the same on Sunday as he slammed 16 off 11 balls against Rajasthan Royals but was dismissed on the first ball of the final over as his team fell short of the target. Following the loss, his former teammate - Harbhajan Singh - revealed a stat that massively tarnishes his image of a 'chasemaster'. Harbhajan said that Dhoni seems to be a problem for CSK at this moment and his numbers are not helping his case at all.

Riyan Parag's captaincy stint with the Rajasthan Royals yielded its first win for the franchise at the IPL 2025 as it won against Chennai Super Kings by six runs. With Sanju Samson's role limited in the initial matches for RR due to injury, Parag was chosen as the leader. The Assam-born star has been a constant for RR over the past few years. Though he had his share of critics, regular good performances in the domestic competitions saw his stock rise. In fact in IPL 2024, he ended up scoring 573 in 16 matches at an average of 52.09 with a strike-rate of 149.22.

MS Dhoni No Longer A Match Winner For CSK In IPL. These Numbers Prove

One of the finest finishers in the history of the game, MS Dhoni is a name that needs no introduction. Over the years, Dhoni has led many successful run-chases, both for Team India and Chennai Super Kings (CSK). However, the last couple of years have seen Dhoni's role evolve into something completely different. Dhoni has rarely come out to bat above No. 7. In fact, in the match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), he played as a No. 9 batter, a never-seen-before feat for the former India captain.

First Time In IPL History: MS Dhoni Achieves Never-Done-Before Feat For Chennai Super Kings

MS Dhoni scripted history by becoming the first Indian batter ever to score 200 IPL sixes after celebrating his 30th birthday. Although Chennai Super Kings slumped to a narrow loss against Rajasthan Royals in their IPL 2025 encounter, Dhoni slammed a six off Tushar Deshpande in the 19th over of the match to etch his name in history books. Overall, Dhoni is only the second player to achieve the feat after Chris Gayle who slammed 347 sixes after turning 30. Rohit Sharma (113), Ambati Rayudu (109), and Dinesh Karthik (104) are the only Indians to score more than 100 sixes after turning 30.
