Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper MS Dhoni was not all happy by his crew’s bowlers even after successful their second match of the IPL 2023 towards Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on Monday night time. Four-time IPL champions CSK defeated LSG by 12 runs to bounce again from a gap day loss final week.
However, CSK bowlers conceded a ton of wides and no-balls as they got down to defend 218 runs in Chepauk on Monday. One of the mail culprits was CSK and Mumbai pacer Tushar Deshpande, who’s a serial offender relating to bowling ‘no-balls’. In the match towards LSG, though Deshpande picked up a few wickets, he bowled 4 wides and three no-balls in his 4 overs.
In truth, Deshpande was the one bowler to bowl any no-balls for CSK within the match. As quickly because the match ended, Dhoni was seen angrily confronting pacer Deshpande about bowling no-balls within the match. In a video that has gone viral on social media, the CSK skipper will be seen having a phrase with Deshpande as quickly because the match ended.
MSD had a dialog with Tushar about noball, he even confirmed how to not bowl him. Tushar will come good for us, belief THALA _. pic.twitter.com/6mH50ZIPz0

In truth, Dhoni was so irate on the bowlers, he warned them that in the event that they stick with it, they may need to play beneath a brand new captain in IPL 2023 quickly. Dhoni’s trademark comedian timing was on present in addition to the CSK bowlers leaking 13 wides and three no-balls in a wayward show towards KL Rahul’s LSG.
“They’ll have to bowl no no balls and less wides. We are bowling too many extra deliveries and need to cut them out otherwise they’ll be playing under a new captain,” Dhoni stated bluntly on the post-match presentation.

Dhoni stated he was shocked by the Chepauk pitch which produced numerous runs on Monday. “It was a terrific game, high-scoring game. All of us were thinking how the wicket will be. We had that doubt. It was a high-scoring game. Overall I think it was a perfect first game that happened and it was a full house for the first game in 5 or 6 years since we’ve been here. I thought it will be much slower. It was a wicket where you could score runs but overall it got a bit slower. We’ll have to see how it plays over the next six games at home but hopefully we can score here,” he added.
CSK’s subsequent match is the IPL 2023 ‘El Clasico’ conflict towards arch-rivals Mumbai Indians on the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Saturday.
