Reasons Behind CSK Struggle This Season

Reasons for CSK Poor Performances in IPL 2024

The reigning champions in the TATA IPL 2024 are presently experiencing a bad run of play, having lost three of their past four games. Many doubts concerning CSK’s dismal run of form have been raised by their latest collapse. 

Reasons Behind CSK Struggle This Season: Chennai Super Kings have played ten games thus far, winning five of them and losing five. Ruturaj Gaikwad, the new captain of CSK, has been scoring runs for the team on a regular basis. However, it was the team’s collective effort that lost them the points in the closing stages of the season.

It was the second time this season that the Chennai Super Kings have lost two games in a row. This time they had lost their run when they faced the Lucknow Super Giants twice in a row. LSG emerged victorious in both of these encounters. 

Star-studded players like MS Dhoni, Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Matheesha Pathirana, and many more make up the Chennai Super Kings squad. However, with a lineup like this, CSK was supposed to dominate this edition; nevertheless, as the games go on, it appears as though CSK is losing its early momentum.

What Happened to Chennai Super Kings in TATA IPL 2024?

In this edition, CSK started their campaign in a good way at first, where they won four of their first six matches and were looking pretty dominant but as time came to face Lucknow Super Giants in two back-to-back games the CSK team suddenly lost the winning momentum. They lost both the games against Lucknow, then came back with a win against SRH. 

But yet again they lost their last match against Punjab Kings. Moreover, CSK has lost to Punjab Kings in their last five meetings. So now Chennai yet again has to face Punjab Kings again and if the curse continues then Chennai will be in huge trouble.

So basically in these last few matches, CSK has been too reliant on their skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad, and always fell short of 30-40 runs. Star players are currently not performing at their best with inconsistent performances. Moreover, another curse hangs in the neck of the CSK team in the form of losing the toss. Ruturaj Gaikwad after being appointed the new full-time skipper of Chennai Super Kings has lost 9 out of 10 tosses in this TATA IPL 2024.

Conclusion: Can CSK Bounce Back or Will the Poor Run of Form Continue

Chennai has a lot of potential, and under MS Dhoni’s supervision, the squad will undoubtedly reach the playoffs and return to form. Even if a few losses don’t determine their destiny, other teams will be prepared to pass them in the postseason race if they keep losing. 

It’s crucial to realize that the Chennai Super Kings have made it to the playoffs 12 times out of 14 and are five-time IPL winners. It would be unfair to underestimate them because of a few losses, so let’s wait and see how Chennai does when they play PBKS in their rematch on May 5th in Dharamsala.
