[Watch] Ruturaj Gaikwad Takes a Dig at MS Dhoni’s Age After CSK’s Victory Over MI in IPL 2024 Match
Ruturaj Gaikwad referred to MS Dhoni as a 'young wicketkeeper-batter' during the post-match presentation.
In a high-stakes clash of IPL 2024, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) clinched a crucial 20-run win against their long-standing rivals, Mumbai Indians (MI) at Wankhede Stadium on Sunday, April 14.
While the CSK batters put on a great batting show, it was the timely brilliance of seasoned campaigner MS Dhoni that turned the tide. Age-defying MS Dhoni unleashed a ferocious onslaught in the final over against Hardik Pandya, smashing an astounding 20 runs off only 4 deliveries.
His extraordinary performance elevated CSK’s total to a commanding 206/4 at the end of the first inning. CSK’s newly appointed captain, Ruturaj Gaikwad, wasted no time in acknowledging Dhoni’s game-changing performance.
In the post-match presentation, Gaikwad praised the “young wicketkeeper” for his explosive batting. Here’s what Ruturaj Gaikwad said in the post-match presentation:
“The young wicketkeeper scoring those three sixes helped us a lot, that proved to be the difference. We needed those 10-15 extra runs for this kind of venue.”
