Especially Jadeja played the most role in this final match as he was an old experienced player. Due to which he managed to score ten runs in two balls and in the last moment of the match the entire gallery audience was surprised and they thought that Gujarat would win. But this dream of Gujarat was broken by the last two balls and Chennai collected the IPL cup for the fifth time.
I heard in a news media that this was the last match in Dhoni career. Because of his age, his followers believed that this IPL season was the last win of his career. But Mahindra Dhoni said that I want to play another match because of the love of the audience. There are few experienced all-rounders like Dhoni so he would like to use his intelligence and get another IPL season in his career.
After scoring big target Gujarat were in good position but CSK which was chasing this have good start and then good hitting from their batsmen in middle overs also help them for having this target and trophy as well Jadeja done his work on right time for his captain with this all things were favoring Dhoni and his team for the fifth title.
With mostly are feeling Dhoni play his last match already for the CSK and most chances now in coming season he could be joined this team as mentor because CSK wants to keep him for better results and motivation of their new generation players which will give them good confidence which helps for having positive results as well now IPL surely needs player like Dhoni for some more time because his presence could be having good impact for the fans as well which is important for the IPL as well.
Even if MS Dhoni does not provide too much value with the bat he is still one of the best wicketkeepers in the whole world.
Of course, he is still the best captain in my opinion. He can create a winning situation in a match for his team from a situation that does not look like anything winnable.
It would be better if he played in the IPL next season, in my opinion.
I don't see his performance dropping at all.
If anything his hands behind the stumps have actually gotten quicker. He is one captain that any team would like to have.
