Rituraj Gaikwad showed the way to reach the playoffs
It is not going to be easy for Chennai Super Kings to reach the playoffs. But, after the defeat at the hands of Lucknow Super Giants, captain Rituraj Gaikwad told how his team will now reach the top-4.
In the post match presentation, Ruturaj Gaikwad further said, ‘For us the equation is very clear. Now whatever matches we play, we will have to win at any cost. I think there is nothing complicated in it, everything is quite simple. From here the path ahead is clear for us, there is nothing to worry about. We just have to keep in mind that we have a good day and whichever player has a good day, he should take full advantage of it. Hopefully we can turn the tables from here.
Captain praised the batsmen
Even if Chennai had to face defeat at the hands of LSG. But captain Ruturaj Gaikwad praised his batsmen. He says that better batting could not have been done than this, because 180 was a good score.
Regarding the match, Ruturaj said, ‘I felt there was a little help for the fast bowlers on the pitch. When we were batting, it was becoming a bit difficult for us to hit the balls coming on ‘hard length’ and their bowlers bowled very well. Although we were thinking of scoring 160 or 170 runs, but we scored 180 runs. So I think our batting could not have been better, we gave our best.
Unstoppable🔥🔥
