These 5 players are guilty of CSK’s shameful defeat
1. Noor Ahmed
Afghanistan’s star spinner Noor Ahmed proved costly against Rajasthan Royals. In this match, he gave away 24 runs in 2 overs and could not take even a single wicket.
2. Matt Henry
New Zealand fast bowler Matt Henry also proved to be very expensive against Rajasthan Royals. In this match, Henry bowled 3 overs, in which he gave 40 runs at an economy of 13.30 and was not able to take even a single wicket.
3. Shivam Dubey
Team India’s star all-rounder Shivam Dubey also did not bat against Rajasthan Royals. Shivam became the victim of his old partner Ravindra Jadeja by making only 6.
4. Rituraj Gaikwad
Chennai Super Kings captain Ruturaj Gaikwad’s bat also remained silent against the bowlers of Rajasthan Royals. Gaikwad was clean bowled by Joffra Archer after scoring just 6 runs, while CSK was expecting a big innings from him.
5. Sanju Samson
In-form batsman Sanju Samson, who was debuting for Chennai Super Kings against Rajasthan Royals, also flopped. Samson was also bowled by Nandre Berger after scoring only 6 runs. CSK was expecting a big innings from Sanju as he had recently given a memorable performance in the T20 World Cup.
