Out of the four matches played in IPL 2024, Chennai has won 2 and lost 2.
Things seem to be getting worse for five-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK), who started IPL 2024 with a win, in the ongoing season. Let us tell you that the team had won two consecutive matches in the ongoing 17th season of IPL.
So after this he has had to face defeat in two consecutive matches. On March 31, CSK was defeated by Delhi Capitals by 20 runs in the third match of the tournament, while yesterday on April 5, the Yellow Army was defeated by Sunrisers Hyderabad by 6 wickets at home.
After two consecutive defeats of CSK, there is constant talk in the cricket world about changes in their playing eleven. But let us tell you that CSK has a history that they do not believe in much change in the team. But still there are 3 big reasons due to which he should bring back Indian all-rounder Shardul Thakur in his team’s playing eleven. So let us try to know these three reasons in this article today:
1. CSK’s Indian pace bowling looks weak.
It has been seen so far in the tournament that CSK’s Indian fast bowling looks very weak. The team’s main fast bowler Deepak Chahar has not been able to find his rhythm yet, he is continuously spending runs at an economy of 9.63.
On the other hand, Tushar Deshpande has not been able to show anything special yet. Tushar has been able to take only 2 wickets so far, while he has spent runs at an economy of 8.68. But if Shardul Thakur returns to the playing eleven of Chennai, then perhaps he has been able to perform better for them. Let us tell you that Shardul has a lot of IPL experience of bowling in death overs along with powerplay. Also, Shardul’s variation can be useful for CSK.
