We are known for that and there was a lot at stake. You won’t always win games and a lot didn’t go our way last time, and it’s important not to make excuses and we have done that this year.”The boys did well to keep the momentum going, and they’ve taken responsibilities to keep all departments of the game in balance so the players and the support staff get the credit,” MS Dhoni said on Thursday.Glad we rapid the fans’ faith: DhoniMS Dhoni made a special mention about their loyal fans, saying it felt good to repay the faith they had in the team after a disappointing campaign in IPL 2020.”Not much needs to be said of the fans, who have supported us through thick and thin and I’m glad we have repaid their faith,” he added.Dhoni lauded his bowling unit which delivered once again in Sharjah. It was their second win of the tournament at the iconic venue where they had gone winless in 2020.Josh Hazlewood picked up 3 wickets for 24 runs while Dwayne Bravo continued his fine run with the ball, picking up 2 wickets for 17 runs as the two seasoned bowlers broke the back of Sunrisers’ batting unit on Thursday.”The bowlers tried to swing it up front and got hit straight when they pitched it up too much, but then adjusted very well. I told the bowlers that they needed to exploit the conditions in today’s game. If the oddball stopped early on, it started coming onto the bat later,” he added.CSK, who will now look to finish inside the top two spots, will face Rajasthan Royals on Saturday.
