IPL 2019: MS Dhoni is My Inspiration, My Friend, My Brother and My Legend Quips Hardik Pandya

One of the finest all-rounders of the modern generation, Hardik Pandya is known to be a huge admirer of former India skipper MS Dhoni. It was evident yet another time when Hardik Pandya went up to MS Dhoni and shook his hands with the CSK skipper and shared a few insights of the game after Mumbai Indians defeated Chennai Super Kings quite convincingly in the Qualifier 1 to directly qualify for the final. The big finale will be played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Sunday.
Hardik Pandya took to his Twitter handle and shared the picture of MS Dhoni shaking hands with him with a loving caption. “My inspiration, my friend, my brother, my legend @msdhoni,” the tweet read. Hardik Pandya has been in the form of his life especially with the bat in hand. He has taken his striking abilities to a whole new level and has been one of the most consistent performers for Mumbai Indians this season.

On the other hand, it has also been a productive season for MS Dhoni. He has not only led his troops to perfection but has also been the highest run scorer for Chennai Super Kings in this competition so far. The rest of the top order and the middle order has been pretty below par and has not managed to score on a consistent basis.
Meanwhile, it was Mumbai Indians who managed to beat Chennai Super Kings for the 3rd time in the tournament in Qualifier 1. It was a thoroughly professional performance from MI who managed to beat Chennai Super Kings twice in their den in this edition only. There is a possibility that these two teams might again meet in the final.
The eliminator clash will be played between Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad and the winner of the clash will play the Chennai Super Kings in the Qualifier 2 a couple of days later. The final will be played coming Sunday.
