“Don’t Think Problem Lies at End” Robin Uthappa on CSK’s Waning Form in IPL 2025

“Don’t Think Problem Lies at End” Robin Uthappa on CSK’s Waning Form in IPL 2025

Published by Webster

The former Cricketer Robin Uthappa has revealed that MS Dhoni is not the problem at the Chennai Super Kings after the 18-run defeat in the IPL 2025 game against Punjab Kings on April 08. Chennai Super Kings lost their fourth consecutive defeat in the IPL 2025 season after securing a win against Mumbai in their season opener match. The team has been criticised for its approach, notably for opting to bat MS Dhoni in No.8 or 9 this season. However, MS Dhoni came to bat at No.5 but was not able to take his team over the line at Mullanpur. Reacting to CSK’s loss on Tuesday, Robin Uthappa said that MS Dhoni was not part of the problem in Chennai and that he had distributed his responsibilities to individuals to help with the team’s transition. “I don’t think there was ever a lack of intent from MS Dhoni. Even outside the IPL, I believe he has passed on responsibility to others and given them a clear understanding of what to expect in the coming years …

IND vs ENG: How Rohit Sharma proved talks of his waning prowess was grossly exaggerated with his second fastest hundred | Cricket News

Rohit Sharma had forewarned of writing him off in this version just yet. A seven-ball outing in Nagpur may have held the question over his head intact. But in a 142-minute masterclass at the Barabati Stadium on Sunday, the Indian captain wiped out detractors and England’s 304-run defence with his 32nd ODI century. First-game heroes Shubman Gill (60) and Shreyas Iyer (44) chipped in before India claimed a four-wicket victory and the series win with 33 balls to spare. On a day where the pacers were blunted by the England top-order, Ravindra Jadeja’s metronomic 3/35 had earlier denied the visitors a higher finish. When the local media reacted with rapturous applause to an early Rohit maximum, a couple of their English counterparts were left wondering if they were teleported to the Western Terrace back home at Headingley for a moment. For the Indian captain though, Sunday was all about reconnecting with happier times from not so long ago. 𝙄. 𝘾. 𝙔. 𝙈.

Exposure to too many flat surfaces and shot-selection issues behind India’s waning ability to manoeuvre middle-overs spin on turners | Cricket News

Published by Webster

Gone are the days for India when the middle overs in a 50-over game would remain monotonous. Now the team, adhering to an aggressive approach, would either dominate spinners with aggressive shots or succumb to them in conditions where the pitch is assisting turn. There is no middle ground as was evident in Sri Lanka in the recent ODI series. The pitches in the series were tailored to assist tweakers. However, the Sri Lankan batters managed the Indian spinners better than vice versa. “They had more scoring options, be it conventional sweep or the slog sweep; they could play that quite convincingly,” former India cricketer Saba Karim told The Indian Express.

Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) national president K.M. Kader Mohideen | Photo Credit: JOTHI RAMALINGAM B Support for the BJP has been waning throughout the country, and the party was entertaining doubts as to whether it could win for the third time in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, said Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) national president K.M. Kader Mohideen in Tiruchi on Saturday, February 3, 2024. Speaking to media persons on the sidelines of the IUML inner party elections to its student wing, Mr. Mohideen said even though the BJP had secured 34% of votes in the last elections, nearly 66% of people had voted against the party. The primary objective of the Indian National Democratic, Inclusive Alliance (I.N.D.I.A.) was to unseat the BJP from power, he added. Though the Congress and Communist Party of India (Marxist) were part of the Opposition bloc, they would contest against each other in Kerala, he said, and added that elected members from both parties would come together after the elections.
