#4 Dhoni’s off day

MS Dhoni has been in the form of his life in this year’s IPL. He has displayed some vintage hitting at the death during this season. However, Dhoni was made to struggle by Delhi’s bowlers on a slowing pitch.

When Dhoni came to the crease, Chennai required a very gettable 93 runs off the last 10 overs. However, Dhoni struggled to get going as Delhi’s leg-spinners exercised total control. In the end, Dhoni could only manage to score 17 runs of the 23 balls he faced before depositing a low full toss into the hands of Shreyas Iyer.

Chennai’s fans must be hoping it was just an off day and that Dhoni would return to his usual best in the next game against Punjab.
