IPL 2020: Irfan Pathan's Cryptic Tweet After MS Dhoni-Led CSK's Loss Against SRH Sparks Controversy

Former Indian all-rounder player Irfan Pathan has targeted Dhoni without naming him. Irfan Pathan took to twitter and tweeted, "Age is just a number for some and for others a reason to be dropped".

MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings suffered another defeat in IPL 2020 on Friday night. CSK lost the game by 7 runs in the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad and it was their third successive defeat in their fourth match of IPL 2020. In this match, Dhoni once again struggled with his batting. For finishers like Dhoni, it was a perfect match, but he could not make the most of this opportunity and his team had to face defeat.

After this match, former Indian all-rounder player Irfan Pathan has targeted Dhoni without naming him. Irfan Pathan took to twitter and tweeted, "Age is just a number for some and for others a reason to be dropped".

Irfan Pathan was part of Team India in the 2007 T20 World Cup and bowled brilliantly against Pakistan in the final.

Pathan played his last Test for India in 2008, ODI and T20 2012. At the same time, he has not been playing IPL for the last three years. In January this year, he announced his retirement from all forms of cricket and now appears to be busy with cricket coaching and commentary.

In the match played between Hyderabad and Chennai yesterday, the top-order batsmen of Chennai failed once again in this match. The first four wickets of the Chennai team fell for 42 runs while chasing the target of 165 runs scored by Hyderabad, batting first. Jadeja showed some resistance by scoring 50 off 35 balls, but he was not enough for the team.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni also went for the big shot when the match went out of his grip. In the end, Dhoni also appeared tired on the field. By the end of the innings, Chennai scored 157 runs at the loss of 5 wickets. At the same time, Dhoni played an unbeaten innings of 47 runs.
