Former Indian Captain MS Dhoni is in top form for his IPL Franchise Chennai Super Kings in the ongoing season. His 22-ball 51, laced with two boundaries and five sixes, against Delhi Daredevils on Monday earned high praise from his teammate, South Africa skipper Faf du Plessis.
“He is in really good form at the moment and it’s extremely tough to bowl to him when he is form like that because he has got such a big arch and if you want to bowl wide he can still hit you to leg side,” said Du Plessis.
“So he has got lot of options so it make life difficult for bowler to plan and bowl to him and even a captain where they want to put the field because he can hit any ball to wherever he wants to,” said Du Plessis after Super Kings recorded a 13-run win over the Daredevils.
It was Dhoni’s third fifty of the season which took his tally to 286 runs after eight matches with a strike rate of 169.23 which is his best since IPL’s inception in 2008 and way above his career strike rate of 138.73.
