Game Wouldn't Have Come This Close If One Opener Had Continued To Bat: CSK's Gaikwad

By IANS News September 27, 2021 • 15:17 PM View: 2139

Chennai Super Kings opening batter, Ruturaj Gaikwad, who has emerged as Mr. Dependable for the three-time IPL champions, said that skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni's cool demeanour was the reason the side, despite playing under tremendous pressure against Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday, won the thrilling contest by two wickets.

Gaikward himself has batted with patience in all the three CSK matches so far in the UAE, and on Sunday scored a crucial 40 runs off 28 deliveries and shared a key partnership with South Africa's Faf du Plessis (43) to play a big hand in his team's victory.
