Chennai Super Kings lost their third consecutive game in this IPL as they lost by seven runs to Sunrisers Hyderabad. MS Dhoni’s unbeaten 47 and Ravindra Jadeja’s maiden IPL fifty was not enough to see CSK home in a must-win game for them. After the match, Bollywood actor Kamaal R Khan took to Twitter and posted a disrespectful and cringy tweet on the former Indian skipper, criticising him about his inability to run fast between the wickets.
MS Dhoni, 39, was one of the fastest runners between the wickets in his prime for team India. However, he looked in a lot of pain and was gasping for breath throughout his innings in Dubai on Saturday. Taking this as his reason, the Bollywood actor posted his tweet.

Meanwhile, with the CSK intensifying with every game, CSK’s loss to SRH will not stand them inn good stead. They are already missing their experienced players in Suresh Raina and Harbhajan Singh. Now this defeat will be all the more difficult for them to come to terms as they had their key players available for the match.

Though MS Dhoni found a batting partner in Ravindra Jadeja (50), CSK failed to chase down the target with 78 needed from the last four. MS Dhoni scored an unbeaten 47, still, the question that looms around is whether he could have batted higher.
Earlier in the game, the CSK bowlers leaked runs in the death overs and dropped catches in the outfield. This is something that made MS Dhoni really angry at the halfway point. He even blamed his fielders for missing easy chances in this crucial game.
“It’s the professionalism – dropping catches, bowling no-balls. We’re making the same mistakes again. After the 16th over, we had two bad overs. Overall we could have been slightly better. Nobody wants to drop catches, but at this level, you have to draw a line that these catches have to be taken” said Dhoni.
