MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings slumped to their biggest defeat in the IPL (in terms of balls remaining) on Friday. The five-time champions could manage only 103/9 in 20 overs against Kolkata Knight Riders, which the defending champions chased down in just 10.1 overs. This was CSK's fifth loss in six matches in the IPL 2025 and the side is placed ninth among 10 teams. This is also the first time in IPL history that CSK have lost three matches on the trot at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai in the IPL. After the loss, former India player and MS Dhoni's ex-teammate Manoj Tiwary had some blunt questions. "From hereon CSK's cart is going to go downhill. It seemed like that from the last three-four matches. You see the shot selection of the players, after playing form 20-25 years, you get to realise what can happen. I couldn't understand some things. Your Purple Cap winner is Noor Ahmad, but when did he come to bowl? In the 8th over. And in the first ball itself, he scalped the wicket of Sunil Narine. Naturally, the cricket sense tells you that if the opposition spinners are doing so well, then you have the Purple Cap winner, why not bring him early? Generally MS Dhoni does not make such mistake. I have not seen it in so many years. Why it happened today, maybe it is worth knowing," Manoj Tiwary said on Cricbuzz.
