IPL 2022, CSK vs DC: Devon leads the way for Chennai Super Kings against Delhi Capitals

Opener hits 87 as team coasts to win over CapitalsDelhi Capitals were in disarray leading up to their game against Chennai Super Kings on Sunday with a Covid outbreak in their camp. James Hopes, a member of the team management, said in an interview with the broadcasters they didn't even have a team meeting going into the game, and it showed. AS IT HAPPENEDRishabh Pant's boys lacked the planning and the execution to deal with the guile of CSK, who are hoping for a miracle to make the Playoffs. While CSK didn't put a foot wrong, DC were absolutely awful both with the bat and ball and following the 91-run loss, will need to win the last three games to stay in hunt. The fact that their Net Run Rate too, took a severe hit, will make things even more difficult going forward. The win may not finally make a difference to CSK's fortunes this season, but it provided them building blocks for the future.

"I Am Not Concerned": CSK Head Coach Stephen Fleming On Ravindra Jadeja's Batting

After a defeat against Royal Challengers Bangalore on Wednesday, Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming said that he is 'not concerned' about Ravindra Jadeja's poor batting form. In IPL 2022, Jadeja has scored just 116 runs in 10 games, while taking five wickets at an economy rate of 7.52. The all-rounder was relieved of his captaincy responsibilities with MS Dhoni taking over again, however, the decision hasn't worked out yet.

'I'm not concerned': Chennai Super Kings coach Stephen Fleming on Ravindra Jadeja's poor form

Chennai Super Kings coach Stephen Fleming is not too concerned about the form of Ravindra Jadeja but said going forward, the team will evaluate which position in the batting order best suits the star all-rounder. In the 10 matches this season, Jadeja has scored just 116 runs at an average of 19.33 in 10 games, while taking five wickets at an economy rate of 7.52. On Wednesday, Jadeja was dismissed for three as CSK went down by 13 runs against Royal Challengers Bangalore, their seventh loss overall. "No, I am not concerned. The T20 game can be tough and when you are batting at No 5 or 6, you do not get a lot of time to get your rhythm or tempo," Fleming said during a virtual press conference. "We will look at it now and work out what the best order would be going forward. But, no I am not concerned about his form."
