IPL 2025 NEWS: The Biggest Controversy Ever in the IPL 2025 was when Mahendra Singh Dhoni came to Bat at the number of 9. Some Cricket Experts said it was so unfair and also did not make any sense.
On Sunday, the Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bangalore match saw some unexpected events.
Because former India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni is coming out to bat at number 9.
The team that once won by scoring 200+ runs under Mahi’s captaincy, and had big players like Mike Hussey, Matthew Hayden, and Albe Morkel, today got stuck at just 146 runs after trying to score 196 runs.
The Biggest Controversy For M.S. Dhoni’s Batting Order
Cricket expert Irfan Pathan has long said that Mahendra Singh Dhoni has done what he did for the Indian team to make him bat in the middle order, but he doesn’t understand why he is batting late in the order.
But no one can tell by looking at this that the 42-year-old player Mahi has impressed everyone by hitting two sixes and a four in the death over.
Singh Saab, meaning Bhajji Pa, said that he is very disappointed with Dhoni’s batting at number 9, but he suggested that if he continues like this, then he should be dropped completely because he was a captain and Chennai Super Kings are wasting his batting ability, he also said that why was Shardul Thakur sent in first? – Harbhajan Singh (Ex-Indian National Team Bowler)”
Former Aussie All-rounder & Former CSK Player Shane Watson once played as an all-rounder for Chennai. He said
Dhoni is still playing the same way he used to, but CSK are insulting his form, Watson said CSK have deprived him of his attacking power and leadership, fans are hoping that Dhoni will take more responsibility and come from the late order to bat in the middle order like he used to do before.
Former batsman and wicketkeeper Robin Uthappa says that playing Dhoni up front is really necessary, as it has been seen that Dhoni comes out when the match is out of hand, but if Dhoni bats first, it will help the scores come quickly.
Chennai Super Kings have won the Indian Premier League title 5 times, which is really amazing. That team has enough potential to win the title this time too, and Mahendra Singh Dhoni has won the IPL title 5 times under his captaincy. One should think about it, so it seems unfair to Dhoni.
