VIrender Sehwag's Brutal Response On MS Dhoni's Controversial Dismissal vs KKR: "Wouldn't Have Made..."
MS Dhoni's return to Chennai Super Kings captaincy was a forgettable one as his team slumped to a massive loss against Kolkata Knight Riders in Chennai in the IPL 2025 on Friday. Sunil Narine's all-round efforts – a spell of 3-13 and a knock of 44 - played a critical part in Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) thoroughly outclassing Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by eight wickets in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. Narine, whose 18-ball 44 helped KKR chase down 104 with 59 balls to spare, said he endeavors to try and give his team flying starts.
Meanwhile, MS Dhoni's controversial dismissal left social media divided during Chennai Super Kings' IPL 2025 encounter against Kolkata Knight Riders in Chennai on Friday. Dhoni came out to bat at No. 8 behind the likes of R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja but he was dismissed for just 1. During the 16th over of the CSK innings, Dhoni was beaten by a delivery from Sunil Narine that crashed into his pads. The on-field umpire raised his finger but the veteran CSK star instantly went for a review. There were very small spike in the UltraEdge when the ball went past the bat but the third umpire decided to stay with the existing decision. The decision led to a lot of chatter on social media with many criticising the third umpire for his call.
Later, Virender Sehwag was asked about whether decision would have made a difference had Dhoni been not out. "I don't think it would have made a difference had MS Dhoni been given not out. Had he been not out, how much would CSK have gotten to? Maximum 130? So, by when did KKR chase down the target (10. 1 overs)? We would have analysed the match at 11:30 pm instead of now. That would have been the only difference," Sehwag said on Star Sports.
