Dhoni will be using a lighter-weight bat to combat reflexes..!?

Dhoni, the legend of the indian cricket team and former captain of the chennai Super Kings team, is preparing in a great way for the upcoming IPL 2025 season. The 43-year-old dhoni is expected to win the IPL trophy and bid farewell to the fans. In this situation, dhoni has given up the captaincy of the CSK team and is currently playing as an ordinary batsman. Also, dhoni is currently batting as the seventh or eighth player in the batting order. In this situation, dhoni is getting older and has made some changes in his batting style accordingly.
Dhoni has always been good at hitting balls. All the aggressive players like dhoni always use a bat that is even heavier. It is about 200 or 300 grams heavier than what other players use. With this, the ball flies for a six when hit with the bat. In that way, the weight of the bat used by dhoni is 1250 to 1300 grams. In this situation, dhoni has decided to reduce the weight of the bat as he is getting older. Due to his age, he cannot lift the bat as easily as before. Also, the reflex to throw the bat at the speed of the ball decreases with age.
 To overcome this, dhoni has now decided to reduce the weight of the bat. dhoni thinks that this will allow him to hit faster with thin bats. When using a bat with less weight, there will be no problems in the areas including the arms and shoulders. But only the ball will travel a long distance. To overcome this, dhoni needs to increase the speed of his bat. This is why dhoni has decided to use a lighter bat. It is noteworthy that dhoni is going to use a lighter bat for the CSK team for the first time in his 22-year cricket career.
