MS Dhoni’s valiant effort not enough to propel CSK to IPL 2024 playoffs
Speaking of CSK, the five-time champions failed to make it to the knockout rounds of the ongoing IPL 2024. The side faced RCB in a do-or-die clash in the tournament at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on May 18.
Batting first, RCB posted a total of 218 runs and CSK had to score 201 to maintain their run rate and reach the playoffs. However, RCB’s bowling attack had CSK in shambles. Ravindra Jadeja and MS Dhoni did put in valiant efforts with the bat during the run chase. Jadeja went unbeaten on a score of 42 runs in 22 deliveries, with Dhoni scoring 25 runs in 13 deliveries. CSK managed to score 191 runs in 20 overs, losing the game by 27 runs.
