Chennai Super Kings (CSK) top-order batsman Ajinkya Rahane reckoned that CSK pacer Tushar Deshpande will learn a lot under the four-time IPL champion team's captain MS Dhoni. Rahane also felt that Deshpande, who is also his Mumbai Ranji teammate, is improving every match in the ongoing IPL.


Both, Rahane (27-ball 61) and Deshpande (2-31) contributed immensely to CSK's seven-wicket win over Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday.

Rahane heaped praise on Deshpande's strong comeback and the way he clean bowled Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma. “Tushar has been bowling really well. He had a great season [first-class] for Mumbai and even before this match [v MI], his comeback [against LSG] was really great. I am very happy for him. These are still early days for him and I am sure he will learn a lot more while playing. And when you are playing under Mahibhai, you learn something every time you are out in the middle," Rahane told mid-day.com in reply to a question.
