IPL 2023 match to gain direct entry to the finals on Tuesday. That means Qualifier-1 match is going to be played. This match will be played at Chepauk Stadium. Cricket lovers from all over the world are on this match between Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans. Because the world’s popular cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni is going to the match to reach the final. Everyone is wondering whether Mahi will cut the ticket for the final on Tuesday itself. All questions are being raised that Tuesday’s match in Chepauk will not be the finale for Dhoni. In such a situation, all attention will be on the game of Dhoni and Chennai.
However, Dhoni has only one problem in the match against Gujarat. That is, Rashid Khan. The bat of this mystery spinner Sham Dhoni is a bit quiet. Thus, Rashid’s return in the Qualifier 1 match may bother Dhoni and dampen the enthusiasm of the Chennai fans in Chepauk. But Mahi’s outlook is different, and he is set to land in Chepauk so nothing is certain about Dhoni’s streak.

Rashid’s return will disturb
Dhoni knows how to bat well against spinners. But Rashid Khan of Gujarat Titans team is a cause of trouble for Dhoni. If we look at Dhoni’s game in the season, he has batted at a strike rate of 190.74. Dhoni has scored 103 runs in the season. In which he scored 60 runs with only 10 sixes. But when it comes to Rashid, the figures are slightly different.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni has played a 35-ball game against mystery spinner Rashid Khan in IPL. In which he has registered only 24 runs. Thus the speed of Dhoni’s bat slows down on Rashid’s spin. Dhoni has faced Rashid 7 times. However, in these seven matches, Dhoni has not been able to bat well on the bowling of the mystery spinner. Dhoni has hit 10 sixes in the season, but has not hit a single six in the season against Rashid Khan. Dhoni’s strike rate against Rashid Khan is only 68.57.
A win will give direct entry to the finals
However, Dhoni has mostly been seen batting in the final overs of the season. That means he is coming to bat only in 19-20 overs. The question is whether Rashid and Dhoni will face this. If the top order returns to the pavilion quickly, then the encounter between the two will be certain. Dhoni will have to overcome the in-form Shubman Gill today. Shami and Rashid Khan are also getting wickets. Besides, the Gujarat team is full of confidence and Hardik Sena has not lost even once in IPL against Dhoni. By overcoming all these, Dhoni has to get a direct entry to the final.
