@Swordsoffreedom I believe that CSK has underperformed this season, because there’re many old player’s in the squad, who cannot accelerate the run rate when it’s required, and this brings pressure on other player’s which is a key reason for their downfall in this year’s IPL.
Yeah, it is the reason. Too many old players in their squad. But they were very skilled and like a t20 specialist. I think they lack coordination among themselves. So, they are not able to present themselves properly. Their coach should pay attention on this.
I've never seen CSK play like this shit before . Their team is very strong . It is never desirable for them to lose in such a bad way . Just look at their squad . They have S. Watson , Faf du Plessis and MS Dhoni . They are one of the greatest player in cricket history . On the other hand , S. Curran , Jadeja and Bravo are great finisher at T20 cricket . Yet they are losing easy wins .
Each team has played more than 6 matches . I have decided that i would not bet any more for RR and Csk . They are disappointed me every time .
Don't you think this bad performance is something to do with pandemic ? The players are out of touch and did not play any significant cricket in the past six months and they are finding hard to regain their form ?
Big NO. I don't think it. The pandemic was not just for CSK's players but for everyone. everyone was away from all types of cricket for a long period. If other players can do perform well, why can't CSK’s Players?
