Pune, Pretr. Changing the captain of CSK in IPL 2022 was very costly and now this team is almost out of the playoff race. Ravindra Jadeja captained this team in the first eight matches and now again MS Dhoni is handling this responsibility. Jadeja had given up this responsibility due to his form deteriorating under the pressure of captaincy.

Now the team’s head coach Stephen Fleming has said that he is not too worried about Ravindra Jadeja’s form. And going forward the team will see which position will be suitable for the star all-rounder in the batting order. In 10 matches of this season, Jadeja has so far scored just 116 runs at an average of 19.33 while taking five wickets at an economy rate of 7.52.

CSK have just six points from 10 matches and the team is almost out of the tournament

On Wednesday, Jadeja was dismissed for 3 against RCB and his team lost by 13 runs. After this Fleming said in the virtual press conference that no, I am not worried. T20 matches can be tough and when you are batting at 5th or 6th position, you don’t get much time to pick up the momentum. He said that we will see which batting order will work for him next. But I am not worried about his form. CSK have just six points from 10 matches. And the team is almost out of the tournament and Fleming admitted that they were weak in all departments.

Fleming said that the match was snatched from us or we could not reach the target

He said that sometimes our fielding and dropping catches is a matter of concern. Most of our matches were close, we were really close to winning them. Fleming said that the match was snatched from us or we could not reach the target. But this was generally the case in the tournament. We fell short in all the three departments. He said that we did not even have some bowlers, you know but we were less. Injuries to key players have taken a toll on CSK with Deepak Chahar being the most important player to be ruled out of the season due to a back injury. Moeen Ali also missed a few matches due to a training injury.
