Former India Captain Krishna Srikkanth Launched a scathing attack on Chennai Super Kings for its Woeful Fielding Effort Against Punjab Kings. He believes it is high time Chennai Figures out its Bowling and Finds a Way to Restrick Opposition Before 180 Because that that is the Chasing Capacity of the Current Batting Unit. Chennai fell to its fourth successive defeat after Falling 18 Runs Short Against Punjab Kings on Tuesday Night in a Gripping Run Chase. Punjab’s Daunting 219/6 WAS Way Out of Chennai’s League as the Super Kings Continued Their Quest of Chasing Down 180-Plus targets for the first time since 2018.

Numerous Dropped Chances Massively Hindred CSK’s Chances of Victory. Punjab, who was Reeling at 83/5, capitalized on the invaluable lifelines and blazed its way to a 200-plus target.

“When you give over 130 runs from 83/5 to 219/6 and keep dropping catches, you are never going to be in a winning position, however good you try and chase!” Srikkanth Wrote on X.

They are the first pair to see off the powerplay for Chennai in the Ongoing Season. They were steamrolling past Punjab’s bowling unit and raised 61 in 6.3 overs.

After a successful powerplay, chennai totted in the middle overs after losing rach (36) and skipper ruturaj gaikwad (1) cheaply. As the Asking Rate Spiralled to 17 in the last four overs, conway was swapped for ravindra jadeja.

MS Dhoni Hammered A Quick-Fire 27 from 12 deliveryies, Including Three TOWERING MAXIMUS, but howled it to yuzvendra chahal on the first ball of the final over as csk fell 18 Runs Short of Victory.

Srikkanth believes it is time for csk to find out ways to restruct the opposition before 180 and Wrote on X, “Its high time csk does someting with their bowling and restrint the opponents to leses Batting order is not set up for a score beyond that! IF
