The four-time IPL champions Chennai Super Kings have been playing good cricket in the ongoing edition of the IPL. They outplayed Delhi Capitals on Wednesday and sealed the second spot in the points table. It seems they are looking for no less than an IPL title this year too as MS Dhoni has also been scoring runs. He has not played any big innings but coming down the order, has made some crucial contributions with the bat for his team.

In the game against Delhi Capitals, Dhoni made 20 runs in 9 balls and also stitched a 38-run stand with  Ravindra Jadeja for the 7th wicket. Talking about the former India skipper's fitness, evidently, the 41-year-old Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been facing a bit of an issue with his knee and a sudden strain causes him a lot of pain. But despite all the problems, he has been batting well, keeping wickets too. However, after seeing Dhoni upset, former India pacer Irfan Pathan was disappointed. 

The 38-year-old Pathan took to his Twitter handle and wrote, “Heartbroken to see Dhoni limping between the wickets. I have seen him running like a leopard.”

Seeing Dhoni limping thru running between the wickets breaks my heart. Have seen him run like a cheetah.

On Thursday, Pathan met Dhoni and shared pictures on his Twitter handle. “Jaha se chorte hai wahi se fir se shuru hoti hai Hamari dosti. Never been a time where we met and didn’t remember our good old days. Some funny memories comes back to the life every time we meet”, he captioned the post.
