At the twilight of his career, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper MS Dhoni has impressed one and all with his exploits in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) season. With the bat, Dhoni has amassed 76 runs from seven innings at a phenomenal strike rate of 200. He has faced only 38 deliveries while batting in the lower order, hitting 8 sixes and 2 fours.
Dhoni has also led CSK exceptionally well as the team is placed second on the points table with 6 victories from 11 matches. Moreover, the CSK skipper seems to be enjoying his time out there in the middle and a glimpse of the same was witnessed on Wednesday (May 10).

Coming to the toss, CSK skipper MS Dhoni won the flip of the coin and opted to bat first.
During the toss, MS Dhoni said, “We will bat first. We have played a few games on this wicket. There are chances of this wicket slowing down. We can’t complain about this track. We try to keep it simple. We try to keep reiterating the same thing. Try to accomplish your plan. Try to execute your plans. We have one change. Rayudu comes in for Dube.”
