CSK vs LSG Highlights: “Will Have To Play Under New Captain” Dhoni Fumes As CSK Wins Against LSG By 12 Runs

IPL 2023 CSK vs LSG Highlights: On Monday, the KL Rahul-led Lucknow Super Giants were defeated by 12 runs in the Chennai Super Kings’ first home match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. CSK scored 217/7 in 20 overs in the match with the most runs scored. In spite of a strong start, LSG scored 205/7 runs in 20 overs. Even though CSK won, their bowlers gave up too many extra runs: 18 (leg-byes, wides, 13 no-balls, and 3 no-balls). The bowlers gave up a whopping 12 extra runs in CSK’s first match as well, against the Gujarat Titans (lb 6, w 4, nb 2).

CSK vs LSG Highlights

In terms of the game, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, and Moeen Ali performed admirably for Chennai Super Kings in their inaugural home match, a 12-run victory over Lucknow Super Giants at their fortress, the M.A. Chidambaram stadium. Batiing first, CSK posted a commanding 217 for 7, with Gaikwad scoring his second fifty in a row and partnering with Conway (47 off 29) to score 110 runs for the first wicket.

MS Dhoni’s big statement

MS Dhoni, captain of CSK, issued a severe warning to his bowlers: We need to slightly improve our fast bowling. We need to bowl in accordance with the circumstances. The most important thing is to keep an eye on the bowlers in opposition. They will also have to bowl no extra wides or no no-balls, or they will have to play with a new captain. “I’ll be leaving after my second warning,” he declared.

Dhoni was additionally astounded by the pitch at the Mama Chidambaram Arena. “It was a great game with a lot of points scored. We were all imagining how the wicket would look. We questioned it. The game scored a lot. Dhoni said, “Overall, I think it was a perfect first game that happened, and it was a full house for the first game we’ve played here in five or six years.”

“I was expecting it to be much slower. It was a wicket where runs could be scored, but it got a little slower overall. We’ll have to wait and see how it goes in the next six home games, but we should be able to score here. Force batters to hit over the fielders, even if it’s flatter.
