Its IPL fever in India, a lot of cricket along with entertainment is to come this season. Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) are making their comeback this season after the 2 year ban imposed on them. A lot of updates are coming everyday with respect to the teams.
CSK is one of the most consistent team in IPL. The biggest strength of the team is their captain Dhoni. His performances in recent time are watched so carefully by cricketing world. He has displayed his skills in batting as well as keeping as to a greater extend.
Dhoni’s batting position is so critical nowadays. He has always proved to be a world class finisher, has also turned many matches in favor of his team. In recent pasts, many cricketing minds have suggested that Dhoni should bat up the order.
The bond between the captain and the coach is really an important one. This has worked out really well for MS Dhoni and Stephen Fleming. They have a good record maintained in IPL history. In a recent interview, the super coach has opened up on Dhoni’s batting. The practice sessions also showed fans how much Dhoni has involved him in the training. It was not just him but the whole team pushing hard for the upcoming months.
“MS will bat relatively high. It’s not necessarily a position with him, but a time that we may choose depending on what conditions we see. But he will definitely play a more prominent role as a batsman.
We’ve picked Jadhav, Rayudu, Jadeja and Bravo so we can plan the middle phase. Looking at our side, there are a lot of multi-skilled players, and while not diminishing their main skills there is a lot of options that we can use,” Fleming said.
This has raised expectations on this year’s IPL to witness Dhoni as a batsman more than a wicket keeper.
