Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni met his teammate Mathisha Pathirana's family ahead of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 final on Sunday (May 28). Sri Lanka's Pathirana is often compared to Lasith Malinga because of their similar unorthodox slinging-arm bowling action. The 20-year-old has played only a single match for Sri Lanka in international cricket, making his debut against Afghanistan in UAE, last year. Pathirana was used very wisely by MS Dhoni in IPL 2023. He was mostly included in the team as an 'Impact Player' for bowling in the death overs and he lived up to his skippers' expectations, providing breakthroughs at regular intervals.
