Having an impact player is a luxurious because it makes decision-making simpler, Chennai Super Kings skipper M.S. Dhoni stated on March 31.
Under the newly-introduce ‘Impact Player’ rule, a batter or bowler might be changed in the course of the sport as per the match scenario, to make it extra thrilling.
“It’s a luxury to have (impact player). It becomes slightly easy to take the decision because you can use it at any time,” Dhoni stated on the toss for the match opener between CSK and Gujarat Titans.
But the World Cup-winning captain feels the rule will scale back the function of an all-rounder within the crew.
“Influence of all-rounder has become slightly less because of the rule,” Dhoni added.
