Dubai, Oct 3 : Veteran Chennai Super Kings batsman Suresh Raina has congratulated MS Dhoni after the former Indian captain became the most capped played in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
During Friday’s game against SunRisers Hyderabad, Dhoni played his 194th IPL match, surpassing Raina’s tally of 193.
Raina took to Twitter to congratulate Dhoni and said: “Congratulations Mahi bhai at becoming the most capped IPL player. Happiest that my record is being broken by you.” “All the best for the game today and am sure Chennai Super Kings will win this season’s IPL,” he added.
The wishes, however, didn’t work as the Dhoni-led CSK lost the match against the David Warner-led side by seven runs, thus registering their third straight defeat in the ongoing season.
During their chase of 165, Dhoni was seen struggling in the searing heat at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. However, he continued to bat and helped his team get to 157/5 in their allotted 20 overs.
