Chennai Super Kings captain MS Dhoni made a massive goof-up while naming the playing XI during the toss at their match against Delhi Capitals on Wednesday. When asked about any change in CSK's playing XI, Dhoni said Ambati Rayudu has come in place of Shivam Dube. However, when the official playing XIs of both sides were revealed, it turned out that both Dube and Rayudu were part of the team.
In a video shared on IPL's official website, Dhoni can be heard saying Dube has been left out to make way for Rayudu. However, the official playing XI list published by CSK on its Twitter handle showed both Dube and Rayudu are part of the team.
