Aakash Chopra Cites Problems For CSK Regarding Ravindra Jadeja- Ravindra Jadeja has become a vital player for Team India over the years. His batting has become better with every passing year, and he was already a wicket-taker with the ball. Moreover, he is a gun fielder and can change the course of the game with his fielding skills. So, he is obviously one of the first picks on the team. He has definitely been an asset for the team in Test cricket. However, his performances have not been up to par or consistent in T20 cricket. Jadeja has started to leak off runs in his four-over quota. Moreover, he has not been able to score quick runs for the team lower down the order. So, his place in the T20 team is definitely a question mark.
The same has been the case with him in his performances for the Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League. However, CSK has still kept him as one of the most vital players in the squad.The IPL 2024 is just 10 days away, and analyses are being done on the strengths and weaknesses of the 10 IPL teams. Aakash Chopra, the former Indian opener, talked about CSK’s weakness and Ravindra Jadeja’s role.
Aakash Chopra Cites Problems For CSK Regarding Ravindra Jadeja
Aakash Chopra expressed concerns regarding the spin department of CSK. He noted that aside from Ravindra Jadeja, there are no Indian spin-bowling options likely to be in the playing XI. This situation places additional pressure on the overseas players to shoulder the responsibility of spin bowling. Chopra opined that relying heavily on overseas players for spin bowling might not be ideal. This could potentially affect the balance of the team and put undue pressure on the non-Indian players.
“There are slight concerns in the spin department. They don’t have any Indian spin-bowling option, barring Ravindra Jadeja, who will play in the XI…So there is more pressure on the overseas contingent, that they should do more spin bowling, which, in my opinion, is not the greatest of things,” Chopra said in his YouTube video.
