“It becomes really hard when you are batting in the middle order of a team where you have MS Dhoni. Despite MS Dhoni is close to three years of his retirement but the craze of fans and love for him is like a never-ending thing. No matter, whether CSK playing at its home ground or not, a huge crowd are coming just to see one glimpse of legend MS Dhoni,” Jadeja said.

“Whenever any player comes to bat ahead of MS Dhoni, fans pray for the player’s dismissal so that MS Dhoni can come to bat in the field,” he added.

“I keep hearing Mahi bhai’s chants. If I bat higher, then the crowd will wait for me to get out. As long as the team wins, I am happy,” he said in the post-match presentation.

The moment Chennai loses three wickets, fans start chanting Dhoni, and Dhoni, and the volume increases only. It shows the amount of love and admiration of fans for MS Dhoni. 

As of now in the IPL 2023, Dhoni has not played long innings but still, his strike rate is 204, creating impact in every match he is playing.

“This is what my job is, I have told them this is what I am supposed to do, don’t make me run a lot and it has been working. This is what I need to do, happy to contribute,” Dhoni said about his batting position.

As far as the points table is concerned, CSK is at the second spot with seven wins, four losses, and have secured a total of 15 points.
