Though brevis

Chennai Super Kings: The hapless run of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL 2025 continued when the MS Dhoni suffered a clinical six-wicket defeat at the hands of Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday.

Though they made 187/8 and had run-rate upwards of ten most times, skipper MS Dhoni lamented the loss of one-two extra wickets coming back to hurt them at the end. “If you look at the amount of runs we had put on the board, it was very good, but you got to see the wickets column as it puts pressure on the lower-middle order that you might not bat 20 overs.”

“I think Brevis' innings was very nice, he was taking chances and I feel run-rate was nice, that's the phase we want to improve slightly. I felt the run-rate was up but where we lacked was losing 1-2 extra wickets,” said Dhoni in the post-match presentation ceremony.
