The MS Dhoni-led Chennai defeated a hapless Punjab unit by 10 wickets on Sunday, October 4, in the 18th match of the ongoing Dream11 Indian Premier League 2020 (IPL 2020) season. The win enabled the franchise to take the sixth spot in the updated Dream11 IPL points table, after they were languishing at the bottom prior to the one-sided game. Indian cricketer Manoj Tiwary, who has been teammates with MS Dhoni for the now-defunct IPL team Pune back in 2017, recently took to Twitter and praised the Chennai skipper and his team for their dominating performance in Dubai.
