Why Lungi Ngidi Not Playing Today
Losing the toss Kohli said, “Happy to be bowling, we’ve stacked up our bowling accordingly. Richardson misses out and Christian comes back in as finisher. Shahbaz misses out and Saini comes in. We have players to bowl cutters so we wanted someone like Saini to go hard up front. It’s easy to look at the table and focus on what others are doing rather than your thing; that’s something we’ve done good so far.”
On the other hand, the toss winning captain Dhoni said, “Heat is a factor and chances the wicket will slow down, so that’s why we’re batting first. It’s not about keeping anyone happy, all of us have got some kind of batting, you’ll always complain if you have enough batting or not but you can’t really manage that. You can try and give exposure in situations but you can’t guarantee that. Managing yourself is key, it’s a day game so it’ll be different from the games we’ve played with dew. Have to figure out lengths quickly. The spinners may come in to it a lot more. Moeen is not fit, and Lungi makes way. Bravo and Tahir come in.”
While absence of injured Moeen Ali broke a million of CSK fans’ heart, absence of Lungi Ngidi confused some of the them. It seems like Chennai Super Kings wanted to trust the experienced member of the side more against the unbeaten IPL team. Imran Tahir got his first IPL game of the season.
