The main reason for these defeats is seen in the absence of opener Rudraj Kejriwal, Deepak Sahar and the bowlers’ misalignment. It is assumed that CSK will be able to give the comeback only if all of this is fixed. Similarly, cricket critics believe that if new captain Ravindra Jadeja resolves his captaincy pressures in a better way and starts acting again, CSK will play immensely again and accumulate victories.
Pressure on Jadeja:
After Dhoni stepped down as CSK captain, Jadeja was given that responsibility. However, on the field, Dhoni is acting like a captain. This is a good thing for the team.
Still, Jadeja is likely to lose his temper. Already, Jadeja has been in a similar position in the first four matches. If Dhoni still acts as the shadow captain, it is likely to further affect Jadeja’s game. Thus, Dhoni has decided to hand over full responsibility to Jadeja in the upcoming matches. Dhoni made this clear at the team meeting. He also said that he would definitely provide advice to Jadeja if he needed it.
CSK executives did not raise any objection. Even if Dhoni makes a decision, the management is sure that it will be better.
Chennai Super Kings will take on Royal Challengers Bangalore in their next league match. The tournament will be held on the 12th.
