IPL 2024: Chennai Super Kings legend MS Dhoni has been spotted in Ranchi riding his bike in the latest viral video, as the five-time Indian Premier League (IPL) winner is enjoying his break after CSK suffered a heart breaking elimination from IPL 2024. The reigning IPL champions will not be defending their crown, as they are dethroned and a new heir is all set to take the throne, and the candidates are:
- Kolkata Knight Riders
- Sunrisers Hyderabad
- Rajasthan Royals
- Royal Challengers Bengaluru
A Match With Two Sides — MS Dhoni's Heartbreaking Exit Against Virat Kohli's Historic Comeback Qualification
Royal Challengers Bengaluru scripted history by doing the unthinkable, as they have qualified for IPL 2024 playoffs from bottom of the table. The Faf Du Plessis-led side were languishing a the foot of the table, until a resurgence period of theirs came and the side went in full throttle mode in the remainder of their fixtures.
The Bengaluru-based side were in inspired mode and recorded 6 consecutive wins to make into the playoffs on 14 points. Four teams finished on 14 points, but only progressed ahead, as RCB had a better Net Run Rate (NRR) and this epic journey saw the side tick all their boxes.
Virat Kohli played with a mesmerising strike rate of 160+, and bowlers finally stepped up when RCB needed them the most. A short stint of Will Jacks proved to be extremely vital and with the side into the playoffs, the absence of English all-rounder will be felt immensely. RCB have done what no other side ever achieved in the history of the league and can now potentially create history by becoming the second side (first being Sunrisers Hyderabad) to win the IPL from Eliminator.
However, this extremely-joyous moment had another side as well, as MS Dhoni failed to see his side through to the IPL 2024 Playoffs, and his fans across the nation were in complete disarray.
