Sunil Gavaskar on MS Dhoni: Only a few days are left for the start of IPL 2023. The first match of the tournament will be played on 31 March. This match will be played between Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings in Ahmedabad. Earlier, former Indian captain Sunil Gavaskar praised Mahendra Singh Dhoni fiercely. He told why Dhoni is different from others? What makes him a different captain from others.
Sunil Gavaskar praised Dhoni’s captaincy while talking on ‘Star Sports Network’ before the start of IPL 2023. He told how Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings won the title after 2 years of ban.
‘Says a lot about your captaincy ability’
The former Indian captain said, “I think it was a great thing when Chennai Super Kings came back and won the trophy, because the whole team was not together for two years and they were playing for different franchises, then they Returned. It tells about your captaincy ability.
Talking further, Sunil Gavaskar said, “It tells you how one man can bring the team together after a gap. Bringing the team together after a gap is commendable. I think the shots he played that season, I remember in one match the team needed 20 runs in the last over to win and Dhoni hit a shot outside the off-stump, which went for a six over long-on. We have seen this from Dhoni earlier also.
2022 season was not good for CSK
The last season i.e. IPL 2022 was very bad for Chennai Super Kings. Chennai was at the 9th position in the points table with 10 teams. The team won only 4 matches in 14 that year and lost 10.
