Pandya has praised Dhoni a lot. Pandya said, ‘The best thing about Dhoni is that he can use the bowlers very well. They decide that you have to score 10 extra runs to register a win. If we manage to win the next match, nothing can be better than facing CSK in the final. It is not good to have regrets in life. We went for 15 more runs and we couldn’t do much better with the bat. We have to come back after two days and think about making it to the finals. Significantly, Gujarat Titans had secured the Qualifier 1 ticket by topping the points table. However, Gujarat has a chance to play Qualifier 2. Qualifier-2 will be played on 26 May.
