Despite dhoni

Chennai Super Kings: Former Australia opener Shane Watson feels that MS Dhoni should have batted ahead of Ravichandran Ashwin in Chennai Super Kings' 197 chase against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Chepauk on Friday

Despite Dhoni's late 16-ball 30 not out cameo CSK suffered a heavy 50-run defeat - their second straight loss in the season after losing to Mumbai Indians in their season opener.

Dhoni came to bat at No.9 after Ashwin even when Chennai were reeling at 80/6 after 13 overs. The situation was not ideal for Dhoni to inflict a turnaround but he smashed three fours and two sixes in his short stay at the crease.
