Talking about the game, MS Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings (CSK) suffered yet another defeat against the Gujarat Titans, failing to defend their score of 178. However, Ruturaj Gaikwad emerged as the star performer for Chennai, smashing an impressive 92 runs in just 50 balls, including four fours and nine sixes. Despite Gaikwad's heroics, the Titans fought back with a blistering 63 runs in 36 balls by Shubman Gill, followed by a late surge from Rahul Tewatia and Rashid Khan, ultimately securing a five-wicket victory.
In response to Gaikwad's outstanding performance, MS Dhoni had nothing but praise for the young batsman, describing his batting as a "pleasure to watch." Dhoni acknowledged the challenge of playing in dewy conditions and suggested that Chennai could have done more with their batting.
