A similar scene was seen in the match against Gujarat, when facing 11 balls, he played an unbeaten inning of 26 runs with the help of 1 four and 3 sixes. However, his innings could not help the team as Chennai had to face defeat. In such a situation, while talking about Dhoni, Sehwag took a dig and said not to get involved in this matter. Actually, during the conversation on Cricbuzz after the end of the match, Virender Sehwag gave a big statement.

He said, “I do not want to get into this debate. Wherever he is batting, everything is fine. They played well and entertained the crowd, who cares whether CSK is winning or losing. Dhoni entertained the people, that's all. We should end the debate on Dhoni's batting order because he knows very well what he wants to do. If MS is not coming to bat at the top of the order, then the batsmen at the top need to raise the level of their game.”
