Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals met in the match held on Sunday night at the IPL. In this match, Chennai captain Dhoni played a fast inning of 21 runs on 8 balls. Just before this short but explosive inning, Dhoni was seen sitting in the locker room and chewing on the bat. Although this is not the first time he has been seen chewing on the bat, he has been seen doing it many times before. Now Amit Mishra has given the reason behind the habit of him.
Amit Mishra has said that Dhoni likes to keep his bat clean, so he keeps doing it. Amit writes in a tweet: “If you’re wondering why Dhoni keeps chewing on his bat so often, it’s because he likes to keep the bat clean of his.” He does it to remove the bat tape from him. You will never see a single ribbon or thread coming off his bat.
In case you’re wondering why Dhoni often “eats” his bat. He does it to remove the tape from the bat because he likes his bat to be clean. He won’t see a single piece of tape or string coming off MS’s bat. #CSKvDC #TATAIPL2022
