IPL captain... is finally gone!!
The most successful team in indian Premier League (IPL) is chennai Super Kings. Captain mahendra singh dhoni shane watson suresh raina ambati rayudu bowling all rounders dwayne bravo Ravindra Jadeja played the most important role in the team's success. Pacer deepak chahar has also won chennai in recent times.
It seems that the star all-rounder has parted ways with chennai Super Kings. In recent times, there has been no communication between Jadeja and CSK management. Due to this, there are expectations that Jadeja will play in Chennai. In fact, Jadeja is the captain of chennai in the 2022 season. However, after assuming the captaincy unexpectedly, his style of play changed. He failed in both batting and bowling. CSK management felt that it was going nowhere and left Jadeja and again gave the reins to former captain mahendra singh Dhoni.
Rock star heart broken Jadeja's IPL career started in 2008 with rajasthan Royals. Jadeja also played a role in rajasthan winning that season. Moreover, it is noteworthy that rajasthan won in the final itself against Chennai. Jadeja scored 135 runs in the first season. He also played for rajasthan in the 2009 season. He scored 295 runs. He showed talent as a bowler. The late legend spinner Shane Warne, the captain of rajasthan Royals, who was impressed by Jadeja's performance, called him a rock star. He prophesied that he was going to be a superstar. Exactly this is true. Now Jadeja is one of the superstars of Team India. He has grown into a very reliable player over the past five years with both ball and bat. In that order, chennai got the captaincy in IPL.
But chennai lost six of the first eight matches under Jadeja's leadership. CSK, who entered the ring as the defending champions, lost their chances of reaching the playoffs due to the early defeats. This left Jadeja as the captain of CSK. This made him averse to the franchise. He missed the last matches of the IPL with a rib injury.
He also deleted the previous posts praising CSK on social media. As a result, there were reports that he was moving away from CSK. In addition, Jadeja has been away from the team management since the end of the IPL in May. Jaddu is not the only one in the video made by all the chennai players congratulating captain dhoni on his birthday. Moreover, not attending the activities organized by CSK to strengthen the bond between the players is giving strength to the news that Jadeja is going to leave the team.
Dhoni made it clear last season that he will play in the next IPL too. It has become doubtful whether Jadeja will join the team again in view of the fact that he will lead the team as the captain. This all-rounder, who played a key role in chennai becoming a strong force in the IPL, was recaptured by CSK last season for Rs.16 crores. Moreover, considering dhoni as his successor, he was given the captaincy. But Jadeja could not lead the team effectively in the initial matches. He also failed personally. In this season, Jaddu scored 116 runs in 10 innings and took only 5 wickets. Representing chennai Super Kings since 2012, Jadeja has played 156 matches in nine seasons so far. It is noteworthy that after dhoni (225) and Raina (200), Jadeja has played the most matches for this team.
Jadeja faced a contract crisis during the 2010 season, away from the league last year after 2010. He missed that season. Played for kochi Tuskers in 2011. After the team was canceled in 2011, he came to chennai in 2012. chennai bought him for Rs 10 crore. Since then, Jadeja's phase has turned. He made his Test debut in the same year. Despite some ups and downs in the middle, after that, Jadeja was unstoppable. But the 2022 season turned out to be his rough season. Although he performed brilliantly for Team India, he could not do justice to Chennai.
