Chennai Super Kings skipper MS Dhoni on Monday asked the IPL organisers to prepare better wickets that encourages shot making, saying no team wants to play "timid" cricket. Dhoni was especially referring to the surface at CSK`s home ground Chepauk, which has been their citadel all these years but has turned out to be a nightmare for the five-time champions this season.
CSK finally snapped their five-match losing streak by beating Lucknow Super Giants by wickets and Dhoni played a pivotal role with a 11-ball 26-run cameo to finish off the game for the visitors. "One of the reasons could be that the Chennai wicket is slightly on the slower side. When we have played away from home, the batting unit has done slightly better. Maybe we need to play on wickets that are slightly better so that it`ll give the batters confidence to play their shots. You don`t want to play timid cricket," Dhoni said after the match.
