IPL 2025: The journey of Chennai Super Kings in the 18th season of IPL 2025 has been very disappointing. Chennai Super Kings have lost three out of four matches so far. Chennai’s team could win the match against Mumbai only. Since then, he has suffered a continuous defeat to Royal Challengers Bangalore, Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals.
After this defeat, many questions are currently arising about the performance of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Many people have even advised him to retire. Actually, not only Dhoni is responsible for this defeat, but the biggest mistake is the top order of Chennai. Which has not been able to perform very well yet. His opener is struggling to form partnerships and score runs. Also, many doubts are being expressed about Dhoni’s batting order.
Another player should be replaced by Dhoni.
After the failure of the CSK batsmen, former India opener Wasim Jafar has said that if Dhoni does not lead the Chennai Super Kings and keeps on batting in the same manner, then he should now make a place for a young player. Jafar told ESPNcricinfo that yes, if Dhoni is not captaincy, it would be a little sad to see him batting like this. In such a situation, they should get out themselves.
Dhoni had to struggle because of this ‘this’
Jafar credited Dhoni’s struggle in limited overs cricket. The 43 -year -old retired from international cricket in 2020 and now play only in the IPL. Jafar further said that this is not easy because Dhoni is not playing much cricket. This is the reason that he bat very little, but when you lose five wickets in 10 overs, Dhoni has no option but to bat. Because, only Ashwin is behind him. At least after that it was nice to see Dhoni batting at number seven.
Jafar further said that the biggest concern is when your top order is not scoring runs. It seems that they are not even in the race to chase the goal. He lost by 40 runs in the last match, this time he lost by 25 runs. This is not Chennai with the old days. Whenever Chennai chooses a player, you expect a good performance from him. But this time it does not seem to happen, whether it is Tripathi or Deepak Hooda. They are not in size. I have never seen Chennai Super Kings playing so bad at my home ground.
