Former Team India cricketer Aakash Chopra has exposed a major weakness of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain Ruturaj Gaikwad. Actually, Chennai Super Kings has to play a match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Hyderabad on Friday, April 5 and just before this match, Aakash Chopra talked about the biggest weakness of the Chennai captain this season.
Aakash Chopra said that Ruturaj Gaikwad has been troubled a lot by the left arm pacers this season. Left-arm fast bowlers have dismissed Gaikwad in all three of his innings in the current edition of the IPL. Yash Dayal, Spencer Johnson and Khalil Ahmed have sent him to the pavilion by getting him caught out by the wicketkeeper or at first slip.
In a video shared on his YouTube channel, Chopra picked Gaikwad as Chennai Super Kings’ star performer for Friday’s match. They said that, “I am focusing a lot on the captain because Ruturaj has top class numbers against this team. He has won the Player of the Match award and scored 50 or more runs. So why not Ruturaj Gaikwad? What has happened so far – the left-arm seamers are troubling him.”
The former India batsman said that the CSK opener cannot face T Natarajan and Marco Jansen. They said that, “However, we don’t know whether T Natarajan is available or not and I don’t see Marco Jensen playing. When the pitch is so flat, I am very hopeful that he will score runs. He looks in good form but the number of runs is lacking.”
Chopra also believed that SRH’s bowling attack could have Jaydev Unadkat as a left-arm fast bowler. However, he also said that the Saurashtra bowler has less chances of dismissing the CSK batsman and even if he does, their batsman will not get out cheaply against CSK.
