New Delhi:

Now the whole cricket world knows that Chennai Super Kings captain MS Dhoni (MS Dhoni) has been famous for taking his bold and shocking decisions on the field.

Whether it was the year 2007 T20 World Cup, or any other stage, Dhoni took such decisions that the pundits pressed their finger under their teeth.

And these awkward decisions of AIIMS seem to be going in his favor as well, but in the Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) that started on Friday, a similar decision of MS taken against Gujarat came under Sehwag's target.

And the decision was to field young pacer Tushar Deshpande as an impact player and get him to bowl the last over of the innings.

Getting the last over Impact and young player Tushar Deshpande, but this decision proved wrong and within the first three balls, Gujarat sealed the victory.

In total, Deshpande gave 51 runs in four overs of the quota.

On this decision, former veteran Sehwag said that it was shocking to ignore regular bowler Moeen Ali and give preference to Deshpande.

He said that if Dhoni had used Moeen Ali in the middle of the innings, he would not have needed Tushar Pandey.

Thushara proved to be very expensive.

Viru said in a conversation with a website that you do not often expect such mistakes from Dhoni.

But when the right-handed batsman was hitting consistently, you could expect wickets from the off-spinner. 

At the same time, former cricketer Manoj Tiwary also said that he was surprised by Dhoni's decision to make Tushar Deshpande bowl the last over of the innings.

Instead of him, Rajvardhan Hungarekar could have proved to be different.

Tiwari said that when MS handed over the last over to the substitute Deshpande, I was surprised.

In domestic cricket, he often bowls later.

I think MS could have made Hungarekar bowl with the new ball.
