Chennai Super Kings (CSK) faced a disappointing defeat against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) In its recent game IPL 2025, losing by 50 runs. An important containment point was the decision to have veterans Ms woman Bat at number 9, a movement that caused widespread criticism and confusions between fans and cricket experts.
During the game held at the Chidambaram Stadium, CSK pursued a bewildering goal of 197 runs, but soon fought, losing three doctors in power. Despite the terrible situation, Dhoni did not go out until 16, after the fall of the Ravichandran Ashwin wick. At that time, the possibilities of CSK’s victory were scarce, and Dhoni’s missing (30 not outside) cameo of 16 balls was considered ineffective.
Cricket experts react to Dhoni Batting at 9
Dhoni’s unusually low position at number 9 has caused criticism of the old cricketers and commentators.
IRFAN PATHAN He was firm in his position, claiming that he would never support Dhoni beating so deeply in the order.
I will never be in favor of Dhoni Batting at number 9. It’s not ideal for the team.

Robin Uthappa He questioned the strategy, arguing that it did not make sense and indicated the lost opportunity to improve the networking rate of the team.
Uthappa even suggested that if Dhoni had beaten earlier, he could have reduced the margin of defeat and minimize the net impact of the race rate.
Important victory for RCB. A victory at Chepauk’s strength will be a great impetus in his campaign this year. Dhoni who reaches the number 9 of DINT makes sense. What came earlier could have helped CSK NRR in his campaign this year.

Harsha Bhogle It also seemed perplexed by the CSK team’s management decision to send Dhoni after the fall of the eighth Wicket.
Dhoni at number 9 🤔?

In the meantime, the ex -ator of India VIRENDER SEHWAG Dhoni mocked in a playful way during a discussion about Cricbuzz, joking that the CSK legend had come to beat earlier than usual, as he usually prefers the last two.
“Jaldi Aa Gaye Na” (He went out early), seized Sehwag, causing laughter between the panel.
Cricter ex India Manoj tiwaryAlso part of the discussion, he said, saying: “We were joking that maybe I would enter the number 10.”
Sehwag added even more, “When he entered, 16 tests had turned upside down. It usually reaches 19 or 20, so technically it was early. Either he went out early, or his batters lost their doctors too quickly.”
