Win Projections to be updated soon
After the powerplay, Kris Srikkanth indicated, Ravichandran Ashwin may be more effective if the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) pulled him into the attack. The advise from the former India opener follows the five-time champions’ consecutive losses to the Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB).
With a victory over the Mumbai Indians (MI), CSK got their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 campaign underway. But in their last two games, the outcomes have not been favourable. During the three matches, Ashwin has bowled ten overs and claimed three wickets. He has given up runs, nevertheless, at an economy rate of 9.90. The former cricket player for India has bowled one over throughout each of the three games’ powerplays. During the powerplay, Ashwin has bowled three overs, giving up 49 runs and taking one wicket.
Srikkanth advocated for the CSK management to include Devon Conway and Anshul Kamboj in the team in addition to outlining how Ashwin may have a greater influence from overs 7 to 18.
Conway must substitute Anshul Kamboj into the starting lineup and replace Jamie Overton. Instead of dropping Ashwin, prevent him from bowling during the powerplay. He can be effective from the 7th to the 18th over, and he can easily defeat Jadeja and Noor Ahmad in at least 10 overs. Instead of Overton, I’ll replace him with Kamboj and then Conway after dropping Tripathi,” Srikkanth posted on his YouTube channel.
CSK should retain Shivam Dube in the starting lineup and employ Andre Siddarth as the impact player, according to Srikkanth.
Mukesh Chowdhary, a left-arm seamer who has been with the team for a while, was also recommended by the cricketer-turned-expert.
Andre Siddarth would be added as an impact player, and Shivam Dube would be forced into the starting lineup. Additionally, Srikkanth stated that Mukesh Chowdhary is a smart choice because he has bowled well for CSK in the past.
The Super Kings’ next game is scheduled for Saturday, April 5, at Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium against the Delhi Capitals.
