MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings (CSK) made a phenomenal start to their title defence by defeating Virat Kohli’s Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the IPL 2019 openerꦗ by seven wickets at the Chepauk stadium o🔯n Saturday.
The three-time champions were all over their opponents in what was a one-way contest, despite it being billed as a fixture to look out for. Batting first, RCB werﷺe bowled out for a paltry 70, and then the hosts chased it down comfortably.
After the match, Dhoni was seen giving some valuable batting tips to RCB youngster Shivam Dube who played his first ♊IPL game last night. Other young guns like Prayas Ray Barman and Washington Sundar were also jotting down those tips from the stalwart.
