- DC’s ability to just about chase the total, according to Fleming, demonstrated how difficult the pitch was.
CSK captain MS Dhoni’s slow innings against DC in the 2021 IPL on Monday might be due to the challenging circumstances at the Dubai International Stadium. According to head coach S.Fleming.
Dhoni scored 18 runs off 27 balls, the slowest innings in IPL history (minimum 25 balls faced), as CSK batted first and scored 136 runs for the loss of five wickets.
Dhoni scored at 66.6 with ten dot balls. In a knock that once again underlined his lack of match experience, he failed to smash a single six or a boundary.

Even DC could only knock down the target with three wickets and two balls to spare, according to Fleming.
In the post-match press conference, Fleming said, “Well, he (Dhoni) wasn’t the only one who suffered.” “Strokeplay had a tough day today.”
When 137 (136) is nearly enough, I believe it was a difficult wicket on which to score big in terms of big shots.
As a result, both teams struggled with it as the innings progressed. You can sometimes set your sights too high, [desire] too many, and we were probably only 10-15 runs away from a match-winning score.
