CSK team had to face defeat in the match played between RCB and Chennai Super Kings. After this defeat, CSK's dream of qualifying for the playoffs was shattered. It is worth noting that even if CSK had lost, it would have qualified by touching the 200-run mark on the basis of net run rate, but the team could score only 191 runs. Many questions are being raised after this defeat of CSK. Questions are also being raised on MS Dhoni batting at number eight. Star bowler Mohammed Shami also raised a similar question.

Questions raised on Dhoni's lower order batting

Shami analyzed the match between RCB and CSK. He has posted a video regarding this on his YouTube channel. In which Shami raised questions on the decision to bat under the leadership of Dhoni. Shami said- MS Dhoni came to bat after Mitchell Santner. If he had come to bat before that, he would have been given four extra balls.

Shami further said- Dhoni arrived late because you cannot follow a batsman like Santner in this important match. I think a mistake has been made here. If Dhoni had gone ahead of him, perhaps CSK would have qualified, but he came into his rhythm and was out after scoring 25 runs in 13 balls.

Questions raised on Shivam Dubey's performance

Along with this, Shami also raised questions on the performance of Shivam Dubey. He said- Shivam Dubey has failed once again. He scored only 7 runs in 15 balls. This is T20 format and you are batting at a strike rate of 46. Shivam Dubey has been batting like this for the last four-five matches and getting out, but he is not able to understand on which track to bat. Batting in first gear or fifth gear. If you do not bat wisely in such an important match, your result will also be the same.

Shami praised RCB's bowling. He said- Maxwell and Mohammad Siraj bowled brilliantly. Siraj proved to be a bit expensive, but acceptable if you have the runs. Yash Dayal also bowled the last over brilliantly.
