After losing to RR, Ruturaj Gaikwad pointed out the weakness of CSK

After losing the match, CSK (RR Vs CSK) captain Ruturaj Gaikwad (Ruturaj Gaikwad Statement) said that we did not score many runs in the powerplay, due to which we were behind in chasing the target. He also said that when we got the target of 183 runs to chase, I was very happy, because the pitch was great for batting and it was worth chasing the runs.

Regarding batting at number 3, Ruturaj Gaikwad indirectly blamed Rahul Tripathi and Rachin Ravindra for not getting a good start from the top order. He said during the post-match presentation,

“Earlier, Ajinkya used to bat at number three, and Rayudu used to handle the responsibility of the middle order. We thought it would be better if I came a little late to take care of the middle overs and Tripathi could bat aggressively at the top. Anyway, it does not matter because I am getting a chance to bat early in three matches. This was decided at the time of the auction, and I have no problem with it. I can take risks and rotate the strike if needed.”
