Sarfaraz Khan got a chance in place of Dhoni, Irfan Pathan chose CSK's best-11, know who gave place to whom?

New Delhi. Chennai Super Kings is ready to win the IPL title for the sixth time. After some strong purchases in the auction, it is time for action on the field. Ruturaj Gaikwad is definitely the captain, but the biggest strength of the team is Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who has made the team champion 5 times under his captaincy. Everyone's eyes are going to be on this former Indian veteran captain this season. Fans are eager to see in what role the team uses him. CSK will face Rajasthan Royals in its first match of the tournament. Earlier, Irfan Pathan has selected the best-11 of Chennai Super Kings, in which he surprised Dhoni by leaving him out.

Irfan Pathan says that Sarfaraz Khan is the right choice for batting at number-6. Pathan said that if Dhoni is ready to take any big responsibility in batting then it is fine, otherwise Sarfaraz Khan should get a chance at number-6. Irfan said, 'Sarfaraz Khan gets a place in this team at number six.'

What is the reason for ousting Dhoni?
Irfan said, 'If Dhoni says that he will play regularly… because there comes a time when even the best batsman in the world leaves the game. Will he play every match or not? I have been saying for a long time that his fans like his coming to the field for just two overs, but the team does not get much benefit from it. If Dhoni has to play, he should play four overs, only then the team will benefit. If he doesn't play, would he like to build a team where the batsmen get full opportunities? Because this is Dhoni's team only.
