Virender Sehwag Openly Sledges Ambati Rayudu Over MS Dhoni In IPL: "Just Correcting The..."

Ambati Rayudu, former Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians player, has been quite vocal in his support for MS Dhoni. At 43, Dhoni is the oldest player in the IPL 2025. After his batting order spot was criticised, there seems to be a change in. Dhoni came to bat at No. 5 against Punjab Kings scoring 27 off 12 balls. While he hit three sixes and a four, Dhoni could not take his team over the line as CSK lost to PBKS. After the match, Rayudu praised Dhoni while commentating. Virender Sehwag and Aakash Chopra were also present in the panel. Here's how the conversation went. 

"There was a statement about an uncapped player, who hails from Jharkhand, 'used to' hit helicopter shots, he batted yesterday. He came in late yesterday, but it was not his fault. He came in late in the context of the match, because by the time he comes, it is too...but he couldn't come earlier yesterday," Aakash Chopra said on Star Sports. 

"See, there he is Thala. What an innings he played. He played with intent. He is a special player, Viru paji. The excitement is rising in the commentary box too," Rayudu replied. 

To which Sehwag said: "I am not denying that player is special. But you said the 'young player' used to hit helicopter shot. I was just correcting the grammar. He still hits those shots. You should have said this."
