In Chennai Super Kings (CSK) knock against the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), the Yellow Army lost their third match in a row in the 13th season of the Indian Premier League. 

As CSK were asked to chase 166 at the Dubai International Stadium. Sadly, they could not achieve the feat as they managed to score only 157 runs in 20 overs. 

Also, the whole responsibility of the result was again put on CSK captain MS Dhoni, who rightly did his job along with Ravindra Jadeja.

Dhoni, who is one of the fittest cricketers in world cricket could not manage the humid climate and was seen running out of breath during the match. After the match, Dhoni talked about the situation, saying that his throat had gotten dry so he started to cough. 

“I tried to get as much time as possible. It is quite dry out here. So, the throat gets dry and you start to cough. When you have legal signs, you can take some time off," Dhoni said post match.

“I was not able to middle a lot of deliveries. Was trying to hit it too hard. When the wicket is slightly at the slower side, it is better to time it. Looking at outfield it was subconsciously coming to us to hit the ball hard,” Dhoni added.

Further talking about the changes that he made in his team. Dhoni stated that, “Long time back once we lost three in a row. We need to get a lot of things right. It is the professionalism. We need to take our catches not bowl no-balls. Those are the controllables and may be we are getting too relaxed,” he pointed.

“We have been a bit too relaxed at times. After the 16th over, we had two good overs but overall we could have been slightly better. Nobody wants to drop catches but at the same at this level, we need to draw a line and say these catches that need to be taken especially when the team hasn’t been doing that outstandingly well. Catches that these can hamper your knock out stage games. It is very important to be at your best. There are plenty of positives in this game but we will try to come back strong," he finally added.
