Ravindra Jadeja was sent in to bat at No. 5 against RCB, ahead of Sam Curran, DJ Bravo and Dhoni himself.
The wicketkeeper-batsman said they made this move to give the southpaw extra time in the middle. Indeed it worked in their favor as Jadeja scored 62 off only 28 deliveries.
MS Dhoni, in hindsight, opined that 165 was a par score. But he acknowledged that the extra runs on the board put the opposition under pressure.
MS Dhoni reiterates the importance of getting the process right
Speaking about his decision to bat first, MS Dhoni mentioned that these decisions keep changing according to different conditions.
When asked if the team has changed anything since last year, MS Dhoni said that CSK is focused on the process. He believes this has helped them excel so far this season.
Chennai Super Kings are currently placed at the top of the points table with four wins in five games.
