Meanwhile, after defeating MI, CSK skipper, MS Dhoni heaped praise on his spinners. He said: “Feels good. Not to forget we lost Deepak in the first over. He’s our new ball bowler and Magala is playing his first match. The good thing is the spinners bowled well. It was a bit two-paced and after seven overs, it started turning. The spinners and the fast bowlers came back well. Magala was good and so was Pretorius.”

Regarding Tushar Deshpande, the CSK skipper said: “We believe in him, and when you’re new you are under pressure but playing in the IPL for a few years brings different pressure. He had a great domestic season, he is improving. He has a lot of potential, but he can improve by not bowling those no-balls, and by being more consistent”.
