Post poor performance in the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) Ravindra Jadeja has decided to step down from the tole of captaincy and has requested MS Dhoni to lead Chennai Super Kings again. Jadeja has taken the decision to focus and concentrate more on his game. “MS Dhoni has accepted to lead CSK in the larger interest and to allow Jadeja to focus on his game,” read the CSK statement.
The 2021 champions incurred one of their worst starts to a season as they lost their first four games in a row before claiming their first victory against Royal Challengers Bangalore on April 12. And just when it was expected a turnaround for CSK under the leadership of Jadeja, CSK lost two more matches in their next three games to stand ninth in the points table.
