Making important decisions on the field requires staying hydrated: Captain of CSK, Ruturaj Gaikwad

Chennai, April 12, 2024: Ruturaj Gaikwad, the captain of the freshly promoted Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League, believes that staying hydrated is essential to an elite athlete’s ability to perform at their best. At the beginning of the most recent season, the 27-year-old succeeded the club veteran, MS Dhoni, as captain of the Chennai Super Kings. Under Gaikwad’s direction, the club has dominated their championship defense thus far this season, winning both of their games to take the top spot in the league standings.

The highly regarded Ruturaj Gaikwad ascent to the CSK captaincy has been merited by his constant good play. Like any sportsmen, Gaikwad has to improve in a lot of areas in order to perform at such a high caliber all the time. These consist of proper diet, mental toughness, physical fitness, and even hydration.

Maintaining hydration is crucial when making crucial decisions: Ruturaj Gaikwad

As an advocate for Amrutanjan Healthcare’s Electro+, Gaikwad remarked, “I can’t stress the role of hydration enough. I’m often asked what the key to success on the field is.”

“Everyone talks about diet, fitness, and other related topics, but keeping the proper electrolyte balance and hydration levels helps with everything from mental clarity while playing on the field to response time and post-match recuperation. As captain, I frequently have to make snap judgments in high-stakes games like the ones we play in the IPL. I need my mind to be active for that. Therefore, I would argue that staying hydrated is crucial for making those crucial decisions that can decide whether you win or lose a game,” he continued.
