jalebi_bhai Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 Considering how the chase panned out, this decision was stupid. Possible logic?
Vickydev Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 So Dhoni can quietly slip down to #11 next match they play and nobody would bat an eyelid Mosher, Indwin, beetle and 1 other 3 1

Its very simple dear jalebi. Allow me to explain. This is surely Dhoni's last season in the IPL. (I'm already all tears .) If he loses the match, he gets questioned for longer in the post match ceremonies. If you notice the losing captain gets asked more questions and spends more time in the presentation ceremony answering pointless question. Winning captain is asked nothing in comparison. This is just another of Dhoni's brilliant schemes to spend more time in front of the camera interacting with his fans. He's won the IPL thrice already. Do you think he cares about winning some pointless season opener anymore? Edited April 10, 2021 by Mariyam express bowling, New guy, asterix and 7 others 10
SK_IH Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 I think Ngidi being in quarantine was the reason. I think Dhoni has to play both Ngidi & Behrendorff when he is available.
IndianRenegade Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 Precisely, what’s the point in stacking the team with batsmen? Bravo didn’t bat even after they were 7 down & didn’t bowl till the 10th over, by that time the game was lost. So what is role in the team? They need someone who can bowl real quick at the top, if it means dropping bravo, so be it.

diga Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 And Dhoni starts complaining about early 7:30 start giving an advantage to team bowling first. .. What if he had won the toss? https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/ipl-2021-csk-vs-dc-starting-ipl-games-early-gives-team-bowling-first-an-advantage-ms-dhoni-1258565

Rutu getting out early damaged their plans. And then the raina run out. But you still need quality bowlers to defend 200+ scores on pattas. DC finished the chase with 8 balls to spare after slowing down towards the end.
