"Chennai Super Kings is missing Suresh Raina" - Amit Mishra's viral tweet!
Home > News Shots > Sports newsThe Chennai team is fielding worse than ever in this season.
IPL 2022…
The 15th edition of the IPL has been going on 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.
CSK Series Failures
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. But since then they have now lost to Punjab and have lost 6 of their last 8 matches so far and their play-off chances have been very sluggish.
Bad fielding
Poor fielding by CSK players is the main reason for this series of defeats. In every match there are many forts like missing catches, stumping miss. This creates an environment where opponents add extra runs. Captain Ravindra Jadeja, who is said to be the King of the field, missed some of the catches, much to the displeasure of the fans. Former cricketer Amit Mishra said, "Chennai Super Kings is missing Suresh Raina in fielding, more than anything else at the moment. Quick fire throws, direct hits and forever safe catching hands."
Mr IPL
Chennai Super Kings player who has dominated the IPL cricket series to the extent known as Mr. IPL. If Dhoni is fondly called as Thala, then Raina is remembered as Chinna Thala. Suresh Raina, who played for the Chennai Super Kings in 11 seasons, has been instrumental in helping win many matches. But he was not picked by any team, including CSK, in this year's auction. Thus he is now working as a Hindi commentator in IPL 2022 season. This will be the first IPL series without Raina.
The 8th Behindwoods Gold Medals Awards will be held this year on May 15 and 22 at the Island Grounds in Chennai from 6pm to 11.30pm. Ticket booking for this is currently underway.
