“My prediction for the last over of the match is that MS Dhoni will be batting. The crowd will be roaring and 1166378 will hit a six to finish the match,” Hussey said.

The CSK batting coach added that the Delhi-based franchise will be desperate against Chennai on Sunday. However, Hussey added that they will be looking forward to showcasing ‘another’ good performance.

“They’re going to be desperate. They’re going to be looking to play a great match. We all start on zero and try and put another good performance against Delhi. Yeah, but I think if we can just focus really well on our game and try and execute our skills as best we can, then hopefully it gives us a good chance to get the result we’re after,” he added.
