RCB vs CSK IPL 2025: When Ayush Mhatre (94) was at the crease with Ravindra Jadeja (77*) chasing 214 runs by RCB, CSK’s possibility of victory was 75 percent but the match overturned after Mhatre was dismissed. After the dismissal of Dewald Brevis, MS Dhoni came to the crease, but he too could not win the team. In the last 3 balls, CSK needed 6 runs, but Yash Dayal defended it with brilliant yorker balls.

After the match, CSK captain MS Dhoni admitted that most of the batsmen in his team were uncomfortable in hitting paddle shots, while in the modern era, batsmen should come to play it. He said that batting is an area where we lagged behind. He also believed that he also made a mistake, who could not play big shots.

What did MS Dhoni say after the match

Dhoni said, “I felt that I should have played some more shots and reduce pressure, so I blame this defeat. Shepherd was the best in the death overs, whatever we were bowling was able to score maximum runs. We need to practice more yorker. If you can kill, low full toss is the best (option). Anyone like Pathirana, he can also throw bouncers, and if he misses the yorker, the batsman has a chance to kill it. “

He added, “Not all batsmen are comfortable playing paddle shots. In the modern era, batsmen need to practice it. But most of our batsmen are not comfortable playing it. Jadeja plays that shot but he was playing his shots (downwards) more behind.
