'Questioning Dhoni's captaincy is wrong...', former Indian player defends Mahi despite Chennai's poor performance

Chennai Super Kings have performed disappointingly in IPL 2025. This team has been at the 10th position in the points table this time and since then questions are being raised on MS Dhoni, who took over the captaincy in the middle of the season after Rituraj Gaikwad got injured. However, now looking at the performance of the team, former India cricketer Atul Wassan has given a big statement regarding this.

Atul believes that the kind of team MS Dhoni has played with, he could have performed like this. It is not right to question the captaincy everywhere. The players also have to perform well and only then the team is able to do well. Apart from this, he has also given his reaction about Dhoni playing in the next season.

Atul Vasan made a big statement about MS Dhoni

Speaking in a show, Vasan said, "A captain is as good as his team is. If I give Clive Lloyd the Zimbabwe team, he will not be able to win with that team. If Dhoni's captaincy has to be rated, then it should be given on the basis of the team. I think sometimes we start giving too much importance to captaincy."

MS Dhoni is CSK

Vasan further said, "Dhoni is CSK and CSK is Dhoni. Even though he has not been able to perform well for his team and the team has also not been able to do well. However, he is making money for the franchise. Dhoni also knows that his good days are over and he is still playing despite criticism. This shows how Dhoni is connected with the team."

Chennai's victory in the last match

Chennai has won the last match. They defeated table toppers Gujarat Titans by 83 runs and registered their fourth win of the season. In this match, Chennai batted first and scored 230 runs for the loss of 5 wickets. In response, Gujarat's team was all out for 147 runs and they had to face defeat by 83 runs in this match.
