Talismanic Mahendra Singh Dhoni feels the pressure and demand of captaincy took a toll on Ravindra Jadeja and affected the all-rounder`s mind, resulting in his below-par outing in Chennai Super Kings colours in the ongoing IPL. Jadeja was anointed as CSK skipper for the ongoing season after Dhoni decided to step aside but the all-rounder failed to cope with the pressure and eventually gave up the job, forcing the franchise to fall back on their most trusted lieutenant.
Back at the helm of affairs, Dhoni produced instant results as CSK notched up a 13-run win over Sunrisers Hyderabad to keep themselves afloat in the tournament. "I think Jadeja knew last season he`d be captaining this year. For the first two games, I oversaw his work and let him be later. After that, I insisted he`d take his own decisions and responsibility for them.
