MS Dhoni and Rishabh Pant will be in action when Delhi Capitals play Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2020 on September 25 (Friday).

CSK vs DC Dream11 Team Selection Best Pick As Wicket-keeper: MS Dhoni or Rishabh Pant
Dhoni remained not out on zero in the first match and on 29 from 17 deliveries in the second match. Against Rajasthan Royals in the second game, CSK were chasing 217 to win. But Dhoni came to bat at no 7 when the game was almost lost for CSK. The former CSK captain later explained that he hadn’t batted for a long time and therefore needed to push himself lower down the order. Dhoni, however, showed glimpses of his former self with three successive sixes in the final over of the innings.
Pant, on the other, stitched an important half-century partnership with skipper Shreyas Iyer after the fall of three early wickets and steadied the ship for Delhi Capitals during the KXIP vs DC match in IPL 2020. Delhi were down to 13/3 after just four overs but Pant halted the collapse with a 73-run stand. He scored 31 off 29 deliveries with the help of four boundaries. Pant also came to bat in the super over and hit the winning runs to give Delhi Capitals a winning start in IPL 2020.
Fans should pick Pant ahead of Dhoni in their Dream11 fantasy team as Dhoni will once again come to bat lower down the order for CSK, which automatically lowers his chances of playing a high-scoring knock. Dhoni has been out of action for over a year and is slowing getting back into the groove. He suggested he will be batting at No 6 or 7 for some more matches before moving himself up the order. Pant, on the other, is settled at No 4 for Delhi Capitals and will be facing more deliveries.
