IPL 2021: Virender Sehwag trolls MS Dhoni for slow batting against DC, says ‘mast thodi der so jata hun’ - WATCH

CSK skipper Dhoni found accelerating the run-rate difficult against Delhi Capitals and could only score 18 off 27 deliveries that too without scoring any boundary. Meanwhile, former India opener Virender Sehwag took a dig at Dhoni for his dull batting and said that he wanted to go off to sleep while the CSK captain was in the middle.

Chennai Super Kings skipper MS Dhoni once again failed to impress with bat in the IPL 2021 clash against Delhi Capitals on Monday (October 4). The wicketkeeper-batsman found accelerating the run-rate difficult and could only score 18 off 27 deliveries before giving an easy catch to Rishabh Pant off Avesh Khan.

Notably, CSK were comfortably placed at 48/2 by the end of the powerplay, but slowed down considerably towards the middle overs, so much so that they couldn't hit a boundary in the next five overs.

Thanks to Ambati Rayudu's unbeaten 55 off 43 deliveries, CSK managed to score 136/5, but Dhoni couldn't get his strokeplay going, consuming 27 deliveries for his 18 runs and not hitting even a single boundary.
