The Dream11 Indian Premier League 2020 (IPL 2020) season will move ahead with the 41st match of the tournament as Chennai take on Mumbai in Sharjah. As has been the case throughout the season so far, ex-Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag once again gave his take on the upcoming game as part of his social media show, Viru Ki Baithak. Through his most recent episode, the former Indian opening batsman made fun of Chennai's players by pointing out the presence of a number of senior players in their side.

Ahead of the upcoming Chennai vs Mumbai live action, Virender Sehwag took to social media to take a playful shot at the MS Dhoni-led side. The three-time winners have been struggling this season, despite their win against defending champions Mumbai in the opening match of the tournament. Claiming Chennai will register just two more wins in their next nine games, Virender Sehwag claimed MS Dhoni and co have been performing like a ‘Senior Citizens Club’ this year.

The former Indian cricketer also mocked Ravindra Jadeja’s poor run of form in the tournament. So far in the season, the veteran Indian all-rounder has picked up just four wickets in 10 matches at an expensive economy rate of 9.34. Sehwag said that Ravindra Jadeja has been performing like the character of Rajpal Yadav from a popular Bollywood comedy film released in 2003.
