Throughout the IPL 2023 season, the storyline for Chennai Super Kings has stayed the same. When MS Dhoni enters the game in the final over, Ravindra Jadeja typically throws his wicket.
And he decides to go for the big hits, sending the crowd into a frenzy. At Eden Gardens, Wankhede and Ahmedabad, it was the same.
Dhoni was prevented from a late flourish by some stunning deliveries from an uncapped Indian quick, much to the dismay of the crowd.
After the CSK captain denied a strong finish in the most recent game against Chennai. Dhoni made an unmatched gesture to an uncapped Indian quickly.

Why then should Chepauk experience a change in the narrative, especially in their season-ending league match against Kolkata Knight Riders? To the fans’ dismay, Dhoni was prevented from a late flourish by some jaw-dropping deliveries from an uncapped Indian quick.
On Sunday at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, fast bowler Vaibhav Arora was tasked with bowling the decisive over with well-positioned Ravindra Jadeja and Shivam Dube at the crease.
He dismissed Jadeja with a slower pitch. As the batter attempted to guide it over the short third man. After giving up only five runs in the first three balls. The crowd couldn’t get any louder, as Jadeja also lamented during the previous game.
Dhoni entered the field with two balls left, to the loudest roar from Chepauk. But unlike Dhoni, who has typically been able to hit a few sixes or boundaries in the remaining deliveries he faced, Arora denied him those chances.
His initial strategy was crystal clear: throw wide-yorkers to move the ball out of the hitting zone. Dhoni was extremely impressed by it. Because he had missed the first attempt but had nailed it perfectly on the second. But it ended up being a no-ball.
Arora then altered his line and hit the yorker on the middle stump. And bowled Dhoni, though it wasn’t recorded. On the final pitch, the KKR quickly repeated the same play, and Dhoni scored just two runs as CSK finished with 144 for six.
The CSK performance was not what the Chepuak crowd is accustomed to seeing. Varun Chakravarthy struck twice to remove both Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ajinkya Rahane after a promising start.
Sunil Narine then claimed two wickets in one over to reduce CSK to five down in the eleventh over for just 72 runs. Shivam Dube maintained his batting consistency with a knock of 48 runs off 34 balls.
