However, with the likes of Faf du Plessis and Dwayne Bravo having been injured in the Caribbean Premier League, MS Dhoni might need to promote himself up the order.

Speaking to ESPNCricinfo, here’s what Ian Bishop had to say:

Sanjay Manjrekar felt that CSK might not miss the services of Dwayne Bravo, but Du Plessis has been an important cog in their wheel. He too agreed that MS Dhoni might need to step up as a batsman in absence of some of their key players.

Got to admire MS Dhoni for sending Jadeja, Curran ahead of him: Sanjay Manjrekar on CSK batting

The IPL 2020 season for was an underwhelming one for CSK and one of the major reasons for that was the performance of the senior players. But Manjrekar was impressed with the way MS Dhoni demoted himself to allow others to score quick runs in the first half of IPL 2021.

IPL 2021 phase two will begin with an encounter between CSK and defending champions Mumbai Indians tonight.
