[WATCH] MS Dhoni’s sly reply to Danny Morrison’s “comeback” question: “Don’t know I’m coming for the next game.”

Danny Morrison was on the pitch with CSK captain MS Dhoni as the toss took place. Morrison cheekily asked Dhoni if he would be coming back next year as the stadium reverberated with the sound of the crowd. The seasoned cheeky retorted, witty, “I don’t know I’m coming for the next game.” Although it seems improbable that Dhoni will declare his retirement in the middle of the season, his statement is concerning because a defeat to Punjab Kings would formally exclude CSK from the competition.

On April 30, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) faced off at Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium. Shreyas Iyer, the captain of PBKS, chose to field first after winning the toss. The starting lineups for both sides were the same going into the match.

The captain of CSK, meanwhile, acknowledged the value of home field advantage but also noted that the squad has fallen short of expectations there. “Team changes are usually minimal when only one or two players are out of form,” the veteran said. Additionally, he highlighted the necessity of reevaluating and working to determine the players’ optimal batting stances.

At the toss, MS Dhoni remarked, “I don’t know I’m coming for the next game (laughs).”

“The pride factor is one of the factors. You play most of your games at home. We haven’t been able to take use of home advantage, which is crucial. same group. We have been a side that hasn’t changed much. However, we’ve changed a lot this season. Reason is easy to understand. You should cut and replace one or two players if the majority of your players are performing well. However, that hasn’t worked for us this season. Additionally, it’s the first season following a new auction. You have an idea, but you need to determine where a batter would be more appropriate.

The ‘S’ in MS Dhoni stands for suspense! 🤫
