IPL 2024: MS Dhoni's Epic Response When Asked How He Reacts To Missed Catches Steals The Spotlight

In the program, the anchor asked Rachin a question, to which Dhoni responded in a way that stole the show. The anchor asked Rachin, "When you miss a catch, do you look towards MS? How do you react?"

Dhoni reacted to this question, saying, "Now there's a new captain." He further added, "I don't react much when I miss a catch, especially when a player is making his debut, and I feel Ruturaj is just like me, but it's amusing to see Rachin wandering around the field."

"I don't react a lot on the missed catches especially when the guy is having a debut and I feel Rutu is quite same just like me"???

Jadeja was also participating in the event. He made a humorous remark about Dhoni, saying, "I think after Sakshi bhabhi, maybe I am the one who has been picked up by Mahi bhai."

Dhoni couldn't help but smile at Jadeja's comment. This video is going viral on social media. It's worth mentioning that during the IPL 2023 final, when Jadeja led CSK to victory, Dhoni lifted him in celebration. Fans still remember that moment, and perhaps Jadeja does too.

Notably, MS Dhoni, the former captain of Chennai Super Kings (CSK), showcased his brilliance on the field during the IPL 2024 match against Gujarat Titans at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.

Despite not having the chance to bat yet in the tournament, Dhoni made a significant impact with his fielding prowess, much to the delight of fans at the venue and those watching on television or via live-streaming.

During the eighth over of Gujarat's innings, CSK's Daryl Mitchell induced an edge off Vijay Shankar's bat with a fuller delivery outside off. Dhoni, positioned behind the stumps, executed a flawless full-length dive to grasp the ball with both hands, securing Gujarat's third dismissal with the team's score at 56 runs. Sunil Gavaskar, expressing his astonishment, exclaimed on air, "The man!"

An excellent diving grab behind the stumps and the home crowd erupts in joy?

Despite the catch appearing routine for Dhoni, its significance was heightened by his recent recovery from a knee injury. Throughout IPL 2023, Dhoni had visibly struggled with his knee, which affected his running between the wickets and necessitated the use of a kneecap after every match. Following CSK's triumph in the tournament final on May 29, Dhoni underwent knee surgery and dedicated the ensuing months to rehabilitation, aiming to return to action for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2024.

CSK has won both of its matches so far. In the first match, CSK defeated RCB, and in the second match, Chennai Super Kings put up a fantastic performance to defeat Gujarat Titans. The way CSK has started IPL 2024 indicates that Chennai's team might succeed in winning the title once again this year.
