One of Indian cricket’s most dependable source of runs towards the final overs, MS Dhoni has shown the world he is not done yet and is ready for the coveted World Cup which begins at the end of this month. He has been scoring runs at regular intervals for the Chennai Super Kings this edition and is looking to lead them to an unprecedented 4th IPL title.

On his way, he currently finds a roadblock in the Delhi Capitals. The young brigade of Capitals have done a tremendous job thus far and have knocked out the Sunrisers Hyderabad on Wednesday in a thrilling contest. Indian batsmen will be crucial in these sticky, dry and slow tracks and going by how the Vizag wicket played, MS Dhoni and his team will relish playing there.

MS Dhoni has been batting well on the toughest track this season in Chepauk. Considering how well he has handled top-class spinners this season, he could turn out to be a huge difference between both sides. We saw Rishabh Pant and Prithvi Shaw go bonkers the other day, which is a clear indication that this pitch is completely not against the batsmen.

It will demand high-quality responses from the batters, especially when spinners are operating. MS Dhoni has registered 405 runs this season and is Chennai’s highest run-scorer as it stands. In the two games against the Delhi Capitals in group stages, he remained unbeaten on 44 and 32. He also has a brilliant overall record against the North-Indian franchise, which makes him a huge threat to deal with for Shreyas Iyer and company.
