IPL 2020: You won’t believe what Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming said after loss against Rajasthan Royals
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) head coach Stephen Fleming has hinted that the morale within the CSK dressing room may be very low because the three-time IPL champions are unlikely to make it to the playoffs for the primary time in IPL’s historical past.
Notably, CSK has all the time reached within the playoffs in all ten seasons that they’ve been a part of the cash-rich match however Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led facet will want nothing lower than a miracle to succeed in the final 4 in IPL 2020.
On Sunday, the CSK confronted a humiliating 7-wicket defeat towards Rajasthan Royals (RR) of their 10th group-stage conflict. Batting first, CSK had been restricted to 125/5 in 20 overs and in response RR’s Jos Buttler batted fantastically to attain an unbeaten 70 off 48 balls.
“It’s fair to say looking at the table now that this team may have run out of juice. If you’re looking at the three-year cycle – we won the first year; lost off the last ball last year, and we always thought that the third year with an ageing squad would be difficult. And Dubai [UAE] has challenged us with a whole new set of requirements,” stated Fleming.
“It’s pretty down (morale in the dressing room) to be honest. We have come close in a couple of games but today we were thoroughly outplayed. We knew it was a crucial game to stay real in the competition. I think there’s an outside chance that we can possibly get through, but when you’re relying on other results and a change of form for your own team, it’s very hard to be upbeat and positive,” Fleming added.
CSK are scheduled to conflict towards Mumbai Indians on Friday in IPL 2020.
