Newly appointed Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain Ruturaj Gaikwad’s father Dashrat and the batter’s first coach, Mohan Jadhav are confident Ruturaj will do justice to the leadership role in the IPL starting today.
The CSK team management’s decision to replace five-time IPL winning skipper MS Dhoni with Gaikwad came just a day before defending champions CSK’s opening game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in Chennai. It can be recalled that Gaikwad led India to a gold medal at the 2023 Asian Games in Hangzhou. However, he will be leading the star-studded Chennai team in the IPL for the first time.
