<p>The race for the IPL 2022 playoffs is getting intense and a bit complicated with each passing day and match. With 56 matches done and dusted in the league stage, the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and&nbsp;Gujarat Titans (GT) hold the top-two spots, respectively, and one of them are set to book a slot in the playoffs on Tuesday evening (May 10).</p>

<p>While Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) -- both tied on 14 points -- also&nbsp;look set to be the other two teams to enter the playoffs, one can expect some more twists and turns with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Delhi Capitals (DC), Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) all tied on 10 points. On the other hand, defending champions and four-time winners Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are also somehow alive in the competition with 8 points from 11 games. Five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) are the only team confirmed to be out of the race.</p>

<p>As there is total chaos in the mid-table, here's how KKR and CSK -- who have lesser chances compared to the other teams stranded in the middle -- can qualify for the playoffs:</p>

<p><strong>KKR's scenario:</strong></p>

<p>With 5 wins in 12 matches, Shreyas Iyer &amp; Co.&nbsp;have 10 points. They are set to play two more matches in the league stage. The franchise can earn two more victories, at the maximum, to take their overall points tally to 14.&nbsp;</p>

<section>
<p>KKR's NRR&nbsp;is presently at -0.057. Since 4 teams are already of 14 points, the two-time winners need a miracle. They&nbsp;would hope for the above teams&nbsp;to lose all of their matches handsomely.&nbsp;Seems unlikely!</p>

IPL 2022: EXPLAINED! How MS Dhoni's CSK and KKR can still qualify for the playoffs

<p>MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) locked horns with the Rishabh Pant-led Delhi Capitals (DC) in match 55 of IPL 2022 edition on Sunday evening (May 08), at the DY Patil Stadium, Mumbai. Despite losing the toss, Chennai dominated the proceedings after their openers Ruturaj Gaikwad (41) and Devon Conway (87) set the tone for a big total courtesy of their impressive 110-run stand.</p>

<p>As a result, CSK posted a mammoth 208-6 and later defended the total by a whopping 91-run margin. While CSK's slim chances of entering the playoffs remain alive, captain Dhoni achieved yet another illustrious feat in his T20 career. Courtesy of his rapid 8-ball 21 not out, the 40-year-old veteran keeper-batter became only the second T20 captain to enter the 6000-run club. Thus, he joined Virat Kohli in a special list with Rohit Sharma at the&nbsp;third spot.</p>

From superstar Virat Kohli to finisher Dinesh Karthik: Top ten run-getters in IPL

<p>On Sunday evening (May 09), the MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) locked horns with the Rishabh Pant's Delhi Capitals (DC) in match 55 of IPL 2022, at the Dr. DY Patil Stadium, Mumbai. In what was a crucial game for both sides in a bid to stay alive in the playoffs race, Dhoni &amp; Co. demolished DC by 91 runs courtesy of Devon Conway's 87, the captain's finishing touch with the bat and Moeen Ali's 3 for 13.</p>

<p>Conway, who was playing only his fourth game of the season, continued his merry run ever since he was included back into the playing XI after Dhoni's reappointment as the skipper. The left-hander timed his innings beautifully and stitched an impressive 110-run opening stand with Ruturaj Gaikwad (41). Conway, however, continued from his end to return with a 49-ball 87, laced with seven fours and five sixes at 177.55.</p>

<p>While his timing was immaculate, Conway stepped out of the crease on several occasions, against the spinners, and launched some big hits. Post his match-winning knock, the New Zealand opener credited Dhoni for his useful batting advice. "I have got to give credit to MS tonight," Conway told Star Sports. "In the last game (versus Royal Challengers Bangalore) I swept quite a lot, and I unfortunately got out playing the sweep. And he said to me, 'I think the guys are going to try to bowl fuller to you tonight. So maybe come out and try to hit them straight.' So he sort of gave me the guidelines to try to execute that.

'Well done old man': MS Dhoni hilariously trolls Dwayne Bravo after his fielding effort during CSK vs DC tie

<p>Chennai Super Kings (CSK) thrashed Delhi Capitals (DC) by 91 runs to earn a resounding win in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Sunday (May 08). Devon Conway and Moeen Ali starred with the bat and the ball respectively as CSK bagged their fourth win of the season to keep their playoffs hopes alive.</p>

<p>CSK had lost as many as six out of their first eight games in IPL 2022 getting off to a disastrous start before all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja decided to step down from captaincy and hand back the reins to MS Dhoni. Dhoni has since guided the defending champions to two wins in three games and has been marshalling his troops to perfection once again.</p>

<p>However, CSK's chances of making it to the playoffs still hang by a thread as they only have eight points in eleven games so far this season. They have three matches remaining in the competition and can reach a maximum of 14 points if they manage to win all three games. However, 14 points might not be enough to see them qualify for the top four.</p>

<p>Royal Challengers Bangalore and Rajasthan Royals both have 14 points each so far in the tournament and if both teams manage to win one game each, CSK will be knocked out of the tournament. Following their dominant win over DC on Sunday, CSK skipper Dhoni was asked about his team's chances of making it to the playoffs this season.</p>

<p>Dhoni, who is one of the most successful captains in the history of IPL, gave a cheeky response and said he is not a big fan of maths since his school days. Dhoni said he would like CSK to take one game at a time and advised the players to enjoy themselves rather than worrying about the permutation and combination.</p>

<p>"One (game) at a time is good enough. I am not a big fan of maths. Even in school, I wasn't good at maths. You write your own fortune," said the CSK skipper.</p>

<p>"What is important is to always be at your best. No point thinking as to this team needs to beat some other team, run rate ... it just adds pressure. Just turn up for your game, plan well, execute your plans, look to win the game and enjoy the rest of the IPL matches. You don't want to take pressure. Two other franchises are playing and you are under pressure. Enjoy the IPL; it's good. If it happens, it happens," he added.</p>

With this big victory, the four-time winners and defending champions Chennai remain alive in the playoffs race, however, they have a very slim chance of moving forward.</p>

<p>While Dhoni had relinquished CSK captaincy at the beginning of the season, handing it to all-rounder Ravindra Jadjea, he was requested to lead again after the latter resigned following Yellow Army's eight encounters this season. Recently, the 40-year-old Dhoni was asked about his IPL future by Danny Morrison. To this, he dodged the question by saying, "You will definitely see me in the yellow jersey.&nbsp;Whether it is this yellow jersey or some other yellow jersey, you will have to wait and watch."</p>

<p>Thus, Dhoni continues to keep mum on his IPL future. While many had thought this would be his last season after he gave up captaincy, now people remain perplexed and clueless regarding the superstar cricketer's IPL future.</p>

Dhoni had led India to a memorable triumph in the inaugural edition of the T20 World Cup with a thrilling win over arch-rivals Pakistan in the final in South Africa.</p>

<p>While the decision to appoint Dhoni as captain proved to be a masterstroke, not many had expected the wicket-keeper batter to take over the reins as he had never led in domestic cricket or international cricket before. It was a surprising decision from the BCCI to appoint Dhoni as captain as there were a number of senior players in&nbsp;the side.</p>

<p>One of the senior players was Yuvraj Singh, who was also India's vice-captain during the team's tour of England where Rahul Dravid was leading the team. The T20 World Cup was after the conclusion of the England series and Yuvraj was among the favourites to be appointed as the captain of the team after senior players like Sachin Tendulkar, Dravid and Sourav Ganguly pulled out of the T20 World Cup 2007.</p>

<p>However, as it turned out, Dhoni was appointed as captain of the Indian team and t marked the start of an era of dominance for Team India as it went on to win several laurels under the former captain. Dhoni led India to three major ICC trophies along with several bilateral series wins across the globe.</p>

<p>Yuvraj has now claimed it was he who was supposed to lead the Indian team at the T20 World Cup 2007 but his stand during the Greg Chappell incident cost him the captaincy. Chappell, who coached India from 2005 to 2007 had feuds with some of India's senior players including Ganguly and Sachin.</p>

<p>Yuvraj claimed he always supported Sachin during the fiasco which didn't go down well with some BCCI officials, who decided against appointing him as captain of the Indian team. Yuvraj revealed he was also sacked as India's vice-captain after the incident.</p>

<p>“I was supposed to be the captain. Then the Greg Chappell incident happened. It had become Chappell or Sachin. I was probably the only player who supported…that I support my teammate. And there were a lot of people in the…Some of the BCCI officials did not like that. It was said that they should make anybody the captain but not myself. This is what I heard,” Yuvraj said during an interview on Sports18.</p>

<p>“I am not sure how true it is. Suddenly from vice-captaincy I was removed. Sehwag was not there in the team. So, out of nowhere, Mahi (MS Dhoni) became captain for the 2007 T20 World Cup. I thought I was going to be the captain," he added.</p>

<p>Yuvraj, who enjoyed a stellar career for India at the international level, never got the chance to lead the national team. He was part of India's 2007 T20 World Cup and 2011 ODI World Cup-winning teams under Dhoni and played an instrumental role in both the triumphs. The all-rounder said he has no regrets about missing out on captaincy.</p>

<p>“Viru (Virender Sehwag) was senior but he was not on the England tour. I was the vice-captain of the ODI team while Rahul (Dravid) was the captain. So, I was supposed to be the captain. Obviously, it was a decision that went against me but I have no regrets about it. Today, if the same thing happens, I will still support my teammate," said Yuvraj.</p>

'Was supposed to be the captain': Yuvraj Singh claims he lost India captaincy to MS Dhoni due to Chappell row

<p>Mother's Day is celebrated across the globe on May 08 as a tribute to all mothers around the world. Mothers are real-life heroes, life-givers and a child's first teachers. Tributes and messages have been pouring in on social media as the world celebrates motherhood and&nbsp;maternal bonds.</p>

<p>The Indian cricket team had once come up with an incredible gesture to pay tribute to their mothers during an ODI game against New Zealand in 2016. The MS Dhoni-led Indian side proudly sported the names of their mothers on their jerseys during the fifth ODI of the home series against the Kiwis at the Dr Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam.</p>

<p>The likes of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Dhoni and other members of India's squad took the field sporting jerseys which had their mothers' names instead of their names on the back. The brilliant gesture had been appreciated by many and had touched the hearts of many as it sent out a great message.</p>

<p>Speaking at the toss, Dhoni was asked about the gesture and he compared a mother's contribution to one's life to that of a soldier's.&nbsp;“It was always how emotionally I was connected to my mom. The mother’s contribution is something which we don’t appreciate it that often,” Dhoni had said at the game before comparing mothers to soldiers.</p>

Mother's Day: When MS Dhoni-led Indian team paid tribute to mothers by sporting their names on jerseys

<p>Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have not had the best of campaigns in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 as they have managed only three wins in their first ten games so far this season. CSK had a disastrous start under new captain Ravindra Jadeja as they lost their first four games in a row before registering their first win of the season against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).</p>

<p>While they were expected to gain some momentum after the win, CSK slipped to another defeat against Gujarat Titans in their next game before bouncing back to beat Mumbai Indians. They lost against Punjab Kings in their next game as their hopes to qualify for the playoffs&nbsp;were handed a huge blow.</p>

<p>With just two wins in their first eight games, the inevitable happened as Jadeja, who had taken over the baton from MS Dhoni at the start of the season, stepped down as captain to hand back the reins to the veteran wicket-keeper batter. Dhoni guided CSK to a much-needed win against Sunrisers Hyderabad in his first game as captain before the defending champions lost a close encounter against RCB to suffer their 7th defeat of the season.</p>

<p>With just three wins in ten matches so far, CSK are currently reeling at the ninth spot on the points table and have been virtually knocked out of the tournament. However, it is still mathematically possible that Dhoni &amp; Co. can qualify for the playoffs if they can go on a miraculous run in their remaining matches this season.</p>

<p>CSK's loss against RCB in their last game can prove fatal to their chances of making it to the playoffs this season. While they are all but out of the race, there still remains a glimmer of hope for the four-time champions. CSK have only four matches remaining this season and will have to win all of them to get to 14 points.</p>

<p>However, that won't be enough and CSK will also need the results of some others teams to go their way to stand a chance of finishing in the top four. Besides maintaining a four-match winning streak in the remainder of the season, CSK will also have to ensure they win these matches by big margins to improve their net run rate, which can prove crucial going forward.</p>

IPL 2022: Rohit Sharma hits 200th six in MI jersey, joins Virat Kohli in elite list of batters

<p>Ravindra Jadeja has been far from his best in the IPL 2022 edition. The former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain, who led the Yellow Army for the first in the 15th season and in only eight games, has struggled for runs as well as wickets (despite some tidy spells in the last two appearances).</p>

<p>So far, Jadeja has only 116 runs at 118.36 and has managed to claim only five wickets in ten encounters. Thus, many have blamed Jadeja's below-par all-round performances and leadership for the four-time winners and defending champions' struggles in this year's season. However, former Indian opener Aakash Chopra has defended the star CSK all-rounder.</p>

<p>"I won't blame Jadeja for CSK'S troubles because this is not his team. When I haven't made the team, why would I take all the blame? Jaddu the captain was always going to be a question mark as he doesn't have experience of captaincy at any level. On top of it, you made a 'reunion' team,"&nbsp;said Chopra on his Youtube channel.</p>

'You made a reunion team' - Former Indian opener defends Ravindra Jadeja amid CSK's IPL 2022 struggles

AB de Villiers to Yusuf Pathan: IPL superstars with most Player-of-the-Match awards

<p>MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have neared elimination in IPL 2022 with their seventh defeat of the season, after losing match 49 to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by 13 runs. With another loss, the four-time winners and defending champions are on the verge of an early exit as their disappointing season continues.</p>

<p>While some of their batters haven't been at their best, the bowling has leaked runs on many occasions, the change in captaincy has been one of the main reasons for their failures. Prior to IPL 15's start, the franchise had announced that MS Dhoni would be stepping down as the skipper, with Ravindra Jadeja succeeding him. Jadeja led in eight games, winning only two encounters, before handing back the captaincy duties to 'Thala' Dhoni.</p>

<p>With the constant change in leadership and Jadeja's inability to respond to the additional responsibilities, the CSK franchise are now starring on the brink of an early exit. Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag, thus, commented on Yellow Army's struggles.</p>

<p>"The first mistake they did was at the start of the season when they announced that MS Dhoni won't be captaining and it will be Ravindra Jadeja, it was a wrong decision," Sehwag told Cricbuzz after CSK were beaten by RCB on Wednesday (May 04).</p>

<p>"There was no settled playing XI. Ruturaj Gaikwad didn't score runs in the beginning. They started off poorly, the batters didn't score runs and from there on, there season was always going to be full of turmoil.

MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have neared elimination in IPL 2022 with their seventh defeat of the season, after losing match 49 to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by 13 runs.

MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have neared elimination in IPL 2022 with their seventh defeat of the season, after losing match 49 to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by 13 runs. With another loss, the four-time winners and defending champions are on the verge of an early exit as their disappointing season continues. While some of their batters haven't been at their best, the bowling has leaked runs on many occasions, the change in captaincy has been one of the main reasons for their failures. Prior to IPL 15's start, the franchise had announced that MS Dhoni would be stepping down as the skipper, with Ravindra Jadeja succeeding him. Jadeja led in eight games, winning only two encounters, before handing back the captaincy duties to 'Thala' Dhoni. With the constant change in leadership and Jadeja's inability to respond to the additional responsibilities, the CSK franchise are now starring on the brink of an early exit. Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag, thus, commented on Yellow Army's struggles. "The first mistake they did was at the start of the season when they announced that MS Dhoni won't be captaining and it will be Ravindra Jadeja, it was a wrong decision," Sehwag told Cricbuzz after CSK were beaten by RCB on Wednesday (May 04).

They started off poorly, the batters didn't score runs and from there on, there season was always going to be full of turmoil. If Dhoni had been the captain from the beginning then it would've been better and maybe CSK wouldn't have lost match so many matches," Sehwag added. With four games remaining, CSK will aim to win all the matches but their playoffs chances are now not solely dependent on their victories alone. They need a miracle to enter the top-four and their fate seemed to be sealed in IPL 2022, which has been a disappointing affair for Dhoni & Co.

CSK were wrong to replace MS Dhoni with Ravindra Jadeja as captain: Sehwag opines on Yellow Army's struggles

Updated IPL 2022 points table after Chennai Super Kings versus Royal Challengers Bangalore clash

<p>Match 49 of the IPL 2022 edition saw the MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) take on their close rivals Faf du Plessis-led Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the MCA Stadium, Pune on Wednesday evening (May 04). Being in a precarious situation with the playoffs race heating up, both sides were in need of a win before RCB eventually emerged on top by 13 runs.&nbsp;</p>

<p>At the coin toss, CSK won the toss and opted to bowl first. Skipper MS Dhoni unlocked another major milestone in his staggering IPL career to become only the second player to play 200 matches for a single franchise (after Virat Kohli). RCB openers Faf and Kohli started off a bit slowly but&nbsp;stitched an impressive 62-run opening stand within 8 overs before skipper Faf was removed by his former teammate Moeen Ali. Moeen, who replaced Mitchell Santner, also picked up the wicket of Virat Kohli. Kohli never got going throughout his innings as he only managed a 33-ball 30.</p>

<p>From thereon, RCB young guns Mahipal Lomror (42)&nbsp;and Rajat Patidar started the recovery process. The duo added a valuable 44-run stand for the fourth wicket as the big guns Faf, Kohli and Glenn Maxwell had perished soon.</p>

<p>In reply, CSK openers Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway (56) ensured a good start for the four-time winners and defending champions. Ruturaj, playing once again on his home ground, looked in good touch but Shahbad Ahmed sent him back for a 23-ball 28. Conway continued from his end but lost the support of Ambati Rayudu and Robin Uthappa as RCB spinners Wanindu Hasaranga and Maxwell chipped in with regular breakthroughs.

IPL 2022: RCB beat MS Dhoni-led CSK by 13 runs as defending champions near elimination

<p>MS Dhoni has done wonders in world cricket since his debut in late 2004. The veteran cricketer has made a resounding name for himself with his unorthodox yet effective wicketkeeping, finishing skills, power-hitting in limited-overs whereas he also did reasonably well in the purest format of the game.</p>

<p>Apart from his runs and centuries, ending with 17,266 international runs, 16 tons, 108 half-centuries and 829 dismissals behind the stumps, Dhoni has been inspirational as a leader. For Team India, he won all three major ICC titles as captain and also led the national side to the No. 1 spot across formats. Even for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Dhoni has guided the Yellow Army to four IPL trophies and two Champions League titles.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Dhoni is known for his street smartness, proactive and calm and composed nature, ability to effortlessly groom youngsters and change plans as per situations and opposition while leading a side. His tactical acumen has been hailed by many over the years. Prior to IPL 2022, Dhoni gave up CSK captaincy as Ravindra Jadeja succeeded him. However, he was reappointed CSK skipper for the remainder of the season after eight games. Talking about his leadership abilities, former Indian cricketer Ajay Jadeja reserved high praise for the keeper-batter and lauded him.</p>

<p>“When Dhoni comes to the fore, it’s always a positive for the Chennai Super Kings. Earlier, it was the same case for India as well. He makes a difference. I am not saying that his captaincy won CSK the last game," Jadeja told&nbsp;<em>Cricbuzz.</em></p>

<p>"It is not like Chennai have not lost matches under Dhoni. Players and captains come and go but a leader like Dhoni comes once in a lifetime. When he is in charge, he is something special. He has been doing this since 2007. If people haven’t understood in 15 years, what Dhoni the captain brings in, there is no point explaining anything to them,” Jadeja added.</p>

If people haven’t understood captain MS Dhoni in 15 years, no point explaining: Ajay Jadeja

<p>Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have not had a smooth ride in IPL 2022. The four-time winners and defending champions find themselves languishing at the ninth spot in the points table, with three wins from nine encounters. While they remain alive in the playoffs race, by the barest of margins, the Yellow Army have lots to do to enter the top four.</p>

<p>Among many other reasons, it is believed that MS Dhoni's decision to hand over captaincy to Ravindra Jadeja, prior to the season-opener, also led to CSK's poor form. Under Jadeja, Chennai looked clueless and won only two games from eight matches. After that, he requested Dhoni to take back captaincy as CSK beat Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by 13 runs in their previous encounter.</p>

<p>While Dhoni is the CSK captain for the remainder of the season, the future doesn't look bright for the Yellow Army. They are nearing elimination in IPL 2022 and struggling to find someone who is capable enough to succeed Dhoni. In this regard, former Aussie spinner Brad Hogg feels that CSK have no one to take over as captain after Dhoni. "Who is going to take over from MS Dhoni at the end of this year? I can't see a player on CSK's team list that can captain this team effectively and efficiently. They will have to go to the auction next year to find a player of captaining ability, and try to find an Indian to do the job is going to be hard because all the best Indian T20 players have already been assigned to other franchises," Hogg said on his YouTube channel.</p>

<p>He added, "They will have to go to an international player. It will be difficult to find a player that will fit in to the balance and the game plan that CSK already have in place."</p>

<p>Hogg also opened up on Jadeja's decision to quit CSK captaincy in the middle of the season. With captaincy responsibilities, the star all-rounder was struggling to contribute with the bat and had managed only five scalps in the first eight fixtures. "He is one of the best all-rounders in the world, and he is the centerpiece of CSK's lineup, so you have to take the pressure away from him. We have learned that Jadeja is not right for the role, but he is a leader in his own right. Sometimes you lead in different ways, so MS Dhoni had to take over the role," said the Aussie.</p>

<p>Lalit Yadav became a part of the Delhi Capitals (DC) since IPL 2020. While last year, he featured in almost half of the games for the Rishabh Pant-led Delhi camp, the all-rounder has been a regular in the DC playing XI in IPL 2022.</p>

<p>The 25-year-old Lalit has also chipped in with handy contributions with both bat and ball. With the willow, he has had a few starts and was one of the main protagonists in DC's four-wicket win over Mumbai Indians (MI) in their IPL 15 season-opener. At present, he averages at over 25 and has also scalped four wickets. Overall, he has an economy&nbsp;rate of&nbsp;7.90.</p>

<p>As the Delhi cricketer is learning the ropes in the star-studded DC franchise, Lalit interacted with WION's Aditya Sahay and dwelled on several aspects of his game, such as working closely with DC head coach Ricky Ponting, assistant coach Shane Watson, captain Rishabh Pant. In addition, he heaped praise on his inspiration Virender Sehwag and the famed trio -- Virat Kohli, MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma.</p>

EXCLUSIVE | Want to pick Kohli's aggression, Dhoni's finishing skills and Rohit's stroke-making: Lalit Yadav

<p>Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will be looking to continue their winning run against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Tuesday.

<p>CSK will be looking to make it two wins in a row against RCB when they meet Faf du Plessis' men at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Wednesday.

<p>The four-time champions will be hoping to carry the momentum from their win against SRH under Dhoni's captaincy. The captain himself will be aiming to achieve a few milestones when he takes the field against RCB. Dhoni is on the cusp of receiving twin milestones in the game on Wednesday.</p>

<p><strong>Here is a look at the milestones MS Dhoni can achieve against RCB:</strong></p>

<p>1) MS Dhoni has so far played 199 matches for CSK in the IPL and is all set to become the first player to complete the milestone of 200 matches for the defending champions. Dhoni has been leading CSK since the inception of IPL in 2008. He turned up for now-defunct Rising Pune Super Giants in 2016 and 2017 when CSK were banned from the IPL for two seasons.</p>

<p>2) MS Dhoni is just six runs away from completing 6,000 runs as captain in T20 cricket. RCB star Virat Kohli is currently the only batter in the world to have scored over 6,000 runs as a captain in the shortest format of the game, Dhoni will become only the second batter after him to achieve the feat.</p>

MS Dhoni on cusp of twin milestones as CSK gear up to face Faf du Plessis-led RCB in IPL 2022

<p>Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will be looking to continue their winning run under MS Dhoni when they lock horns with Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Wednesday. CSK defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by 13 runs in their last game to bag a much-needed win as Dhoni took over the captaincy from Ravindra Jadeja.</p>

<p>Dhoni had stepped down as CSK's skipper ahead of the start of the season to hand over the baton to Jadeja. However, the star all-rounder decided to hand back the reins to the legendary wicket-keeper batter once again after CSK's disastrous start to the season with six defeats and only two wins in their first eight matches.</p>

<p>The biggest positive for CSK in their win against SRH was opener Ruturaj Gaikwad bouncing back to form with a brilliant 99 off 57 balls while his opening partner Devon Conway also slammed an unbeaten 85 off 55 balls to grow in confidence after his initial snub from the playing XI.</p>

<p>While their batters are finding the momentum, CSK's bowling woes are still intact. Dhoni's biggest challenge will be to get the best out of his struggling bowling attack as he aims to keep CSK alive in the race for the playoffs. With just three wins in six matches, their chances are currently hanging by a thread.</p>

<p>On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bangalore have so far managed five wins and five losses in ten games this season. They had started off well but have struggled in their last few matches. RCB are currently on a losing streak of three matches and will be hopeful of bringing an end to it against CSK on Wednesday.</p>

<p>Virat Kohli roared back to form for RCB with a gritty half-century against GT in their last game after a string of low-key scores. However, there remain concerns in their batting line-up as they have failed to deliver as a unit so far. Their bowling attack too has been under pressure in the death overs and will have to step up against CSK.</p>

IPL 2022 today match prediction: Who will win Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Chennai Super Kings clash?

<p>MS Dhoni returned as captain of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 after star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja decided to step down as the skipper of the side and hand over the reins back to Dhoni. Dhoni led CSK to a much-needed 13 run-win over Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on his comeback as the skipper to keep the four-time champions alive in the race for the playoffs this season.</p>

<p>Dhoni had himself passed over the baton to Jadeja ahead of the start of the season keeping the future in mind. However, Jadeja decided to quit captaincy as CSK endured a horrible start to the season with just two wins and six defeats in their first eight matches. The pressure of captaincy had also started affecting Jadeja's game adversely.</p>

<p>Reacting to the captaincy saga at CSK this season, former CSK star Faf du Plessis, who is leading the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCb) this season, said Dhoni should be the captain at CSK as long as he is in the team. Du Plessis said he was surprised when the change in captaincy happened mid-season but insisted the move was in the making.</p>

<p>"I'm surprised that the captaincy change happened midseason, but I was also surprised at the way it happened the way before the season. So, it is like two surprises cancelling each other out. Obviously, there's no secret that when MS is there and he is the captain, he does get the best out of the players, and that has been a big part of CSK's success," Du Plessis said in a video shared by RCB ahead of their clash against Dhoni's CSK in IPL 2022 on Wednesday (April 04).</p>

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) bounced back to winning ways as MS Dhoni made his return as captain of the side against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Sunday.

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) bounced back to winning ways as MS Dhoni made his return as captain of the side against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Sunday. Dhoni took over captaincy once again after Ravindra Jadeja decided to step down from his post following CSK's disastrous run in the tournament. CSK rode on brilliant knocks from Ruturaj Gaikwad (99) and Devon Conway (85*) to post a strong total of 202 runs on the board and went on to defend the total successfully to bag their third win of the season. It was CSK's first win under Dhoni after his return as captain of the side this season. The atmosphere was electric at the MCA Stadium in Pune as CSK fans thronged the stadium in huge numbers to see Dhoni return as skipper of the four-time champions. Dhoni had received a huge reception from the fans when he walked out to bat at number three after the dismissal of Gaikwad during CSK's innings. The cheers didn't die down even when CSK were out on the field defending the 203-run target during SRH's run chase. SRH superstar Nicholas Pooran was left in awe of the unreal love that Dhoni gets from his fans across India. The West Indies batter said it was one of the moments he would never forget in his career.

<p>Talking about defending champions CSK's run in IPL 2022, the Yellow Army haven't lived upto expectations. One of the most successful and consistent franchises, CSK are languishing at the penultimate position in the points table with only three wins from nine encounters.
