He was surely injured in DC game, yet came and bowl one crucial over and tried to recovered for LSG game it was long break. Won us match with POM performance.

No other player in recent time fuels the kind of energy this man did to this team. Won heart of yellove fans straightaway.

Recover well and come back stronger next season. You already made mark into Yellove hearts.

Without him: I guess we need to bring Spencher and Prashant into XII.

How you guys as fans deals with spilt ownership? Like different owner and different philosophy for every other cycle.

That change every 3-4 year brings lot of ideology difference in how your team function.

Delhi finally had a good balanced squad, all likeable players. Yet it fails to clicked.

Those ownership changes somehow reflects in decision of management also, constant changes in XII with more insecurities in mind of players.

Like Sourav Ganguly had great SA20 but he can’t interfere in IPL cause now ownership is different.

With Dhoni at helm, with his calm and composed head always aiming for fair play award, wanting his team to play in certain way.

But what Dhoni did best was to add coaching staff from ex players he identified himself to see them fit for keeping the environment he wanted in team.

From Fleming to Balaji to Mike Hussey to Dwayne Bravo. With Fleming being the best man manger to Hussey as Mr Cricketer to sharp technical aspects of batters to Bravo proving his death overs speciality just in one season.

There is a reason all players who played for CSK never spoken ill words about environment. Every establish player in IPL wants to play for CSK.

Despite aiming for fair play award, Dhoni never stopped players from being themselves be it Mathew Hayden, Ambati Raydu or Shane watson in terms of aggression or be it Bravo’s entertainment on field.

CSK always discussed and strategies games but never relied on it, cause on ground it was Dhoni doing all the things with his experience. Where management role was just provide what he seek or keep players in touch for game.

Now they have choosen Ruturaj Gaikwad as successor with young team, this team require certain new faces in management to fulfil the void Dhoni created, that doesn’t mean CSK need to sack or get rid of whole management:

*Environment and Loyalty is what makes players want to play for this franchise*

And as an adamant CSK fan I don’t want my team to loose this identity to be just another team in IPL who becoming corporate giant like Mumbai. Who got 5 trophies yet you never gonna hear a single player being happy to be in that environment. Watch their Netflix documentary and you as fan will feel pressurised looking at their culture.

We need one face: who emphasised on strategy aspect to not let team panic to do blunder like impact sub other day. Many of you fans will say Ashwin. But only if his access remain to Management personnels not to players. Giving Ash anna access to strategies with players means he will put them under pressure more than helping them. He is a cricket fanatic. With so much technical aspects and details. Which only needed for management to integrate in game plan. Not to mess with player’s mindset.

We need one face: who fuels the energy in this team. Who brings out passionate side of players. Like I use to saw Ambati Raydu or Bravo or watson or even Raina or Dhoni himself, whenever team needed them in clutch situation their body language was so charged up and passionate on the field to rubbed on whole team.

And I see Ambati Raydu being perfect candidate for that. Who passionately bleeds yellow and way too emotional personal to ignite the passion for CSK in our young players. Imagine him grooming Karthik Sharma into beast.

Why we need this kind of person cause “earlier CSK was buying experienced players and just giving them good environment, and those players were experience enough to understand what they needed to do.”

Now with young team “we need that one person who lift their spirits just the way Ajay Jadeja did for Afghan team”

Apart from that: I see no need of change in management, cause if we do then it won’t be same CSK environment and just aiming for result ignoring all the things this team is known for…not gonna hold the fanbase.

TLDR; to fill void created by Dhoni stepping down as captain, we need few new faces in a strategy aspect and a Yellovely legend to bring out passionate side of our young players. No need to sack or change existing management. They are the reason CSK have best environment in whole IPL.
