IPL 2022 RCB vs CSK: This season of IPL 2022 has been no less than a nightmare for the current champion team Chennai Super Kings (CSK), who have captured the trophy 4 times in the history of IPL. Their chances of making the playoffs were completely ruined with their defeat against RCB on Wednesday night. In 10 matches played so far this season, the CSK team has won only 3 matches.
It was expensive to replace Dhoni with a new captain
Even before the start of the season, Dhoni resigned from the captaincy post of CSK and handed over the responsibility to Ravindra Jadeja. But Jadeja could not handle this pressure of captaincy and the team had to pay the brunt of it with defeat. Now the captaincy has been handed back to Dhoni. But in doing so, the Chennai Super Kings management delayed it.
Sehwag told where did CSK go wrong
IPL 2022 RCB vs CSK: Meanwhile, former Team India opener Virender Sehwag believes that handing over the captaincy to Jadeja early in the season was the team’s biggest mistake. According to him, CSK would not have lost so many matches under Dhoni’s captaincy. Sehwag told Cricbuzz after CSK’s defeat against RCB on Wednesday, “The first mistake he made at the start of the season was to replace Dhoni with Jadeja as the captain. It was a completely wrong decision. No playing XI was fixed. Rituraj Gaikwad did not score runs in the beginning. They started poorly, the batsmen didn’t score runs and from there, things got worse. If Dhoni had remained the captain from the beginning, then CSK might not have lost so many matches.
Jadeja’s performance was suppressed by the pressure of captaincy
Jadeja was under the pressure of captaincy in such a way that Jaddu, who was in excellent form before the start of the league, could score only 116 runs in 10 matches of the season at an average of 19.33, while in bowling also only five wickets at an economy rate of 7.52. have taken. In the last match (RCB vs CSK) on Wednesday, Jadeja could contribute only three runs against Royal Challengers Bangalore, which led to a 13-run defeat for CSK. CSK has just six points from 10 matches and the team is almost out of the tournament.
