It was about <strong>Rachin Ravindra<\/strong>, a guy with a name so cool it sounds like a fusion of Raichu and Rohan from Lord of the Rings \u2014 who stepped up, smacked some runs, and stirred the pot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>After Thumping Win Over Mumbai Indians, CSK Star Rachin Ravindra Calls This Player \u201cWorld Class\u201d. Not MS Dhoni.<\/strong> Yes, you heard it right. It <em>wasn\u2019t<\/em> the legendary Thala, the icon, the finisher, the ice-in-his-veins MS Dhoni. Who was it then?

He tackled Mumbai\u2019s bowling attack like a cat taking on a laser pointer \u2014 relentless and precise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But when reporters asked who impressed him the most, Ravindra <em>didn\u2019t<\/em> point to the man in yellow gloves.

Former New Zealand skipper <strong>Kane Williamson<\/strong>, in his smooth Kiwi accent, noted that Rohit Sharma\u2019s kryptonite continues to be left-arm pacers \u2014 in this case, <strong>Khaleel Ahmed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cIt\u2019s just the first match,\u201d Kane said, sipping metaphorical chamomile tea. \u201cBut Khaleel in the powerplay is like a sniper.
