IPL 2022: "WE STARTED WELL - THAT'S THE BEAUTY OF THE T20 TOURNAMENT" - JADEJA'S LATEST STATEMENT!
Home > News Shots > SportsChennai Super Kings are playing under Jadeja in the IPL 2022 season.
The 15th edition of the IPL has been in full swing in India since March 26. A few days before the start of the series, Dhoni, who was the captain of the Chennai Super Kings team, abruptly announced his resignation as captain. Following this, Ravindra Jadeja was given the opportunity to be the new captain.
In this context, for the first time ever, the Chennai team lost the first 4 matches of the IPL series. They lost the first match to Kolkata, the second match to Lucknow and the third match to Punjab. Thus the CSK team was lagging behind in the points table. Then the consolation RCB team won and started the account. These miserable victories also drew criticism from Jadeja's captaincy.
The Chennai team, which was expected to continue its winning streak after this, lost to the Gujarat Titans again yesterday. CSK, who batted first in the match, lost 5 wickets and added 169 runs. After a long day Ruthuraj Kejriwal scored a fifty. The Gujarat Titans then set a target of 170 for victory. Chennai bowled well from the beginning of the match and left the fort in the last phase. CSK bowler Jordan's 58 in 3.5 overs was the biggest setback. The Gujarat Titans won the last over. Miller captained the team with 94 off 51 balls.
With this fifth defeat, Chennai's play-off chances are fading. Speaking after the defeat, captain Jadeja said, "We started bowling brilliantly and performed well in the first 6 overs. When we were batting, the wicket was tough. The ball was tight, but in the last 5 overs we did not execute our plans. I thought Chris Jordan would throw his yorkers better. But he could not do so. That is the beauty of T20 cricket. " He talked about failure. It is noteworthy that Dhoni, the former captain of the CSK team, takes success or failure by default.
