Harbhajan questions CSK’s decision to send Dhoni at no. 9 'I don’t understand'

Former India spinner Harbhajan Singh raised doubts over MS Dhoni batting at the No. 9 spot despite being in form during the Chennai Super Kings clash against Punjab Kings at the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.

The CSK icon for the first time in his illustrious T20 career, came at the number 9 spot to bat at the scenic Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association



Stadium.

As fans awaited the much-expected fireworks from the veteran’s bat, a delightful off-cutter from Harshal Patel on the final ball of the penultimate over cut short the celebrations, as Dhoni walked back for a golden duck. Harbhajan questioned the strategy behind reserving Dhoni for the last moment rather than sending him up in the order that would have allowed the in-form batter to make a big impact.
