Dhoni: Having an Impact Player is a luxurious

Having an Impact Player is a luxurious because it makes decision-making simpler, Chennai Super Kings skipper MS Dhoni stated on Friday.

Under the newly-introduced ‘Impact Player’ rule, a batter or bowler might be changed in the midst of the sport as per the match scenario.

“It’s a luxury to have (Impact Player). It becomes slightly easy to take the decision because you can use it at any time,” Dhoni stated on the toss for the match opener between CSK and Gujarat Titans.

But the World Cup-winning captain feels the rule will cut back the position of an all-rounder within the staff.

“Influence of all-rounder has become slightly less because of the rule,” Dhoni added.
