"It is always a challenge to face MS Dhoni's team because he often has a very good squad by his side. As CSK often takes the field with a number of experienced players, it is always a closely fought battle against them. If KKR want to beat the likes of CSK and MI, then we will have to play like champions," Harbhajan quipped while speaking on the SportsTak YouTube channel.

"I do not feel that MS Dhoni will be in his mentor role at the moment. He is currently in the captain's role and I believe his complete focus will be on winning the championship for his team. It is uncertain if he will play next season, hence he will want to finish on a high note," he added,

CSK beat Mumbai Indians (MI) convincingly in the opening match of the second-leg of IPL 2021. The 20-run victory enabled Dhoni’s team to go to the top of the table. Their next match is on 24 September against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at Sharjah.
