Former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh has hailed MS Dhoni and CSK for keeping things simple and credited this approach is behind their success.
Speaking on Star Sports’ Cricket Live, Harbhajan said, “Once his team is set, MS Dhoni and the team management doesn’t tamper with the Playing 11 no matter who is available on the bench. A player like Ben Stokes – their most expensive player at auction – had to sit on the bench even after regaining his fitness because the team combination was doing well. Belief in players takes a big team forward and CSK is testimony to the same.”
In an exclusive interview on ESPNCricinfo, Tom Moody and Sanjay Manjrekar previewed the IPL final between Titans and CSK. They discussed what is CSK’s best chance to dismiss Shubman Gill early and whether the toss will play a factor for Gujarat Titans.
