Chennai Super Kings’ (CSK) IPL 2018 match with Kings XI Punjab at Mohali on Sunday saw a limping MS Dhoni, as he almost guided his team through to their third win of IPL season 11. However, CSK fell short in the final analysis as the severely hampered Dhoni could not capitalise on the last over of the match. Dhoni scored an unbeaten 79, which is his highest score in T20 cricket.
“It’s bad. How bad it is, I don’t know,” Dhoni said in his post-match television interview.
” However, God has given me enough power. I don’t need to use my back a lot. The hand can do the job.”
“We will assess how bad it is. It should not be too bad because I know what really happened. Once you know what kind of injury it is, it becomes slightly easy to get out of it,” Dhoni said.
“Also, we have three-four days now before the next game, so (there’s) enough time. Also, I am quite used to playing with a few injuries; whether it is back, fingers, elbow or something else. So, you have to be tough and play out the game,” he added.
