(Milcah Anila, Intern Journalist) Dubai: Chennai Super Kings performed poorly once again. The batsmen completely failed in the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore. After the match, Dhoni said he was “deeply dissatisfied” with the team’s performance. ‘The batting problem in our team has been there before. Through this match, it became clear again. Top-order batsmen failed to score fast in the middle overs. This puts increasing pressure on lower-order batsmen. It didn’t matter if he played big shots in the final overs but mostly dot balls. Never mind when it comes to bowling. We have a bowling line-up that can tie opponents. Given more runs in the first six overs or the last overs, we can tie the score on the whole. There are a lot of issues on the team. We have to rectify all that, ”Dhoni said.
Chennai lost the match by 37 runs to Bangalore. The Chennai batsmen failed to crack the 170 targets set by Bangalore. Ambati Rayudu (42), Jagadeeshan (33), Duplessis (14), and Dhoni (10) were the only batsmen to score double figures. As a result, he lost eight wickets in 20 overs and made only 132. This is Chennai’s second defeat in a row. He has won just two of his seven matches and is sixth in the points table.
