Michael Vaughan also gave advice to CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad
Ruturaj Gaikwad (Ruturaj Gaikwad) led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to a 7-wicket win against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Monday, April 8. First, the lethal bowling of Ravindra Jadeja and Tushar Deshpande restricted KKR to just 137 runs. After this, captain Ruturaj Gaikwad led the team to victory by playing a half-century innings.
Meanwhile, former England captain Michael Vaughan believes that CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad is still feeling the pressure from former captain MS Dhoni to take over the lead role of the team. He believes that Ruturaj’s batting performance in IPL 2024 has been affected by this.
Despite Ruturaj Gaikwad’s brilliant innings against KKR, Michael Vaughan feels the CSK captain was feeling the pressure. Vaughan cited the example of former Manchester United coach Sir Alex Ferguson to explain how it would be difficult for Gaikwad to replace Dhoni at five-time IPL champions CSK.
He has taken over from God- Michael Vaughan
Vaughan told Cricbuzz, he has taken over the charge from God. It’s like Sir Alex Ferguson is still in the dressing room when the new manager comes in. MS Dhoni is still there. It will be very difficult. It is difficult to give instructions to Dhoni, but I think it is MS who has taken the decision to step aside.
Other than this michael vaughn Also gave advice to CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad. He said that till now I have not seen Ruturaj in complete control in the middle. The only advice I would give him is to focus on scoring as many runs as possible. If he can do that, I think his team will be in a better position.
Let us tell you that under the captaincy of Ruturaj Gaikwad, Chennai Super Kings has played five matches so far this season. Out of these, they have won in three, while they have faced defeat in two. The team is at fourth position with 6 points.
