Chennai Super Kings need MS Dhoni in their crucial match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League 2024. It is a knockout game as the winner of the contest will become the fourth franchise to qualify for the playoffs.
RCB need to beat CSK by 18 runs or complete the chase in 18.1 overs to play in the next round. Meanwhile, Dhoni is still nursing knee injury, which has impacted his arrival to the crease. He is batting late in the matches, often leaving the franchise in trouble.
Although he has hit several sixes, the five-time champions expect more from their star player. Irfan Pathan, who has played with Mahi, thinks that the veteran will have to take more responsibility.
“Stop thinking about your knee injury. Forget about it. You will have to take more responsibility in the game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. You know how the job is done.
“Instead of one or two overs, Dhoni will have to bat for three or four to win the contest for Chennai Super Kings. It is high time that Dhoni shows his class once again,” Irfan Pathan said on Star Sports.
