Pujara Critiques Dhoni’s No. 8/9 Role Ahead Of IPL

Cheteshwar Pujara says MS Dhoni shouldn’t bat at No. 8 or 9 for Chennai Super Kings. “It’s wasted talent,” Pujara argued, stressing Dhoni could single-handedly turn matches if he faced more balls. The veteran’s game-changing potential deserves a higher spot to make a real impact in IPL 2026.
