Why is Dhoni’s Last IPL not going As per Plan

M.S. Dhoni the talismanic former Indian captain who is playing his last IPL wanted to leave the cricket field on a high but things do not seem to be going his way.

Defending champion Chennai Super Kings is currently ranked 3rd on the points table and it is almost certain that Chennai would not finish in top two. But it is not Chennai’s performance that is drawing cricket lover’s attention. It is Dhoni’s on filed antics that has become a matter of great discussion amongst the fans as to why Dhoni is behaving the way he is. Recently in a match against Punjab Kings played on 5th May 2024 he came out to bat at 9th position whereas he usually bats at number 6 or 7. Later it was revealed that because Dhoni was suffering from leg muscle tear, he came down the order because it will be difficult for him to run for too long. Also, since the team’s other wicket-keeper Devon Conway was out of the tournament because of injury Dhoni had no option but to play.

This begs the question as to why Devon Conway was replaced by English cricketer Richard Gleeson who is a bowler. Dhoni is a part of selection committee of Chennai Super Kings and it is obvious that Richard’s selection had Dhoni’s approval. Devon should have been replaced by a wicket-keeper but that was not done. For more click on the link. https://njssnews.in/why-is-dhonis-last-ipl-not-going-as-per-plan/
