CSK have been officially eliminated from the IPL after the massive 89-run defeat to the Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad. Chennai ended the league stage with six wins, which marked their third failure to make it to the playoffs.
Criticism is obvious, but sometimes the fans can't hold onto their emotions and abuse cricketers in some undeserving fashion. Speaking on his YouTube channel, former CSK star Ravichandran Ashwin opined that fans have been too harsh with their criticisms of the young CSK skipper.
Having made a point that form is always temporary, and even the best of players go through rough patches, he established it further, drawing reference to Ishan Kishan, the renowned Indian batter who bounced back to excellent form after having experienced a lean patch over the past few seasons.
"Dhoni and CSK have made everyone habituated," Ashwin blames MS Dhoni for CSK fans' high expectations ahead of every IPL season.
After having backed Gaikwad for his batting form, Ravichandran Ashwin explained that CSK fans have their hopes soaring high every season, due to the precedent set by the former skipper MS Dhoni. Dhoni led CSK to five titles and almost doubled the number of times in the playoffs.
"Dhoni and CSK have made everyone habituated over the last 18 years that we will win, we will reach the playoffs; it's that easy. It is not like that now. There are 10 teams now. Every team plays good cricket.
Ruturaj Gaikwad might struggle to continue his reign as the skipper of CSK.
Ruturaj Gaikwad, the youngster from Maharashtra, emerged as one of the most special cricketers for the Chennai Super Kings under MS Dhoni's leadership. After some promising performances, he was backed as Dhoni's successor in the CSK team.
His strike rate was a major talking point for all CSK fans, especially after he scored his first half-century in the season off 49 deliveries. Criticism has grown louder around Gaikwad's lack of potential as a true successor for MS Dhoni in the role of CSK's captain.
