MS DHONI JOKES AFTER WINNING TOSS IN IPL 2020 OPENER; STEALS LIMELIGHT INSTANTLY!
Home > News Shots > SportsAs Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain MS Dhoni made a return to cricket after nearly 14 months, fans are overjoyed to see him play.
Dhoni made him return in the opening game of the 13th edition of IPL against Mumbai Indians in the UAE, where he stole the limelight with his hilarious best at the toss.
Soon after winning the toss, Dhoni took some time before announcing his decision to either bat or ball first. So instead, he asked a hilarious question to commentator Murali Karthik.
“Wanted to know if we can have a slip (in line with social distancing),” Dhoni joked. I will bowl first. Late evening you get dew. Also to keep wicket in good condition they water it, so it tends to be tacky at the start,” Dhoni, further added.
Further in his conversation, Dhoni spoke about how the players were required to stay in and during this time the players have to keep themselves fit.
“Have the liberty during lockdown to spend time on yourself to keep fit. Have to applaud every member of the squad. First six days in quarantine is very difficult. Felt each individual used that time well and nobody was disappointed or frustrated. The practice facilities were very good. After the first 14 days it was nice to get out,” he added.
