MOHAMMAD KAIF FEELS DHONI IS STILL TAKING CSK ON-FIELD DECISIONS - DETAILS!
Home > News Shots > SportsThe former batsman has said that it was Dhoni's decision to give Shivam Dube's 19th speech in the match against Lucknow.
The IPL league match between Chennai Super Kings and Lucknow Super Kings was played on March 31. Batting first, CSK scored 210 for 7 wickets. Batting next, Lucknow won by 211 runs in 19.3 overs.
CSK all-rounder Shivam Dube's 19th over in the match was controversial. He did not even throw an over until then in the match. In such an environment, Captain Jadeja invited him to bowl the crucial over of the match. But 25 runs went in that over. This was a turning point in the game and the main reason for CSK's defeat. The CSK team has been heavily criticized by many former players for this.
Former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif has commented on this. In it, ‘Evin Lewis doesn’t play well on the spin. But Moin Ali did not give him even three overs. The Mumbai team released him because Evin Lewis did not play well on the spin bowling. He can hit sixes in a fast bowler's over.
So it was not Jadeja's decision not to give Moin Ali the 19th over. He is just learning. This decision was taken by Dhoni, ”said Mohammad. Evin Lewis, who scored 55 off 23 balls, led Lucknow to an unbeaten run in the final.
