During the IPL 2023, there were a lot of great performances by young players who made their names in the biggest T20 game in the world. Sai Sudharsan was one of the many young people who stood out this season, and his name was on everyone’s minds from the start. Kane Williamson got hurt while fielding in the first game of the event, so the 21-year-old took his place as an impact player.
Sai Sudharsan had back-to-back half-centuries in the second and third games of GT. In the final, he played a brilliant inning and made 96 runs off 47 balls. The batter from Chennai, who beat CSK badly in the big game, said that he had a chance to talk to MS Dhoni after Qualifier 1 and will remember what he told him.
“After Qualifier 1, I was able to talk to him for 10 to 15 minutes.” I think we talked a lot about cricket and getting to know ourselves. I think it was very helpful, and I will definitely use it in the future,” Sudharsan told News18.
He also said that the CSK captain is the most humble person he has ever met because he makes time for everyone.
“Dhoni is the most humble person I’ve ever met because he makes time for everyone. On the day I talked to him, many other people had already talked to him. He was very humble and gave everyone a lot of his time, which is something I really liked about him. I would also like to learn a lot from him because of how well he understands the game, and if I had the chance, I would like to talk to him in the future,” he said.
Sai Sudharsan was the player who cost the most at the TNPL sale.
Sai Sudharsan had a great IPL in 2023. In eight innings, he made 362 runs with an average of 51.71 and a strike rate of 141.40. He also hit three fifties. His 96 in the final is the third-highest score by an individual in IPL final history. The batter for Tamil Nadu will next play for Lyca Kovai Kings in the Tamil Nadu Premier League, which starts on June 12. Sudharsan, who was bought for INR 21.6 lakh, was the most expensive player this season.
