“No intention, no hunger to win”: Suresh Raina hit CSK’s approach after 6 defeats in 8 matches

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) performances are disappointed in IPL 2025, and the franchise sits the rock base of the score desk after six matches. Meanwhile, former Indian cricketist and CSK legend Suresh Raina continued to criticize his former team. Raina drew attention to the lack of local players in the CSK team, the franchise is the weakest that the franchise has and said it moved away from the Cricket brand.

“This is the weakest CSK team. Absolutely. I guess there is no intention. Winning hunger is not there. Not to disrespect anyone, CSK’s known brand is not there right now, Ra Raina said by chatting with Harbhajan Singh on Instagram.

Raina, despite a few talented players playing in the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL), CSK questioned why he didn’t have much players from his hometown Tamil Nadu.

“Look at how local players playing in TNPL do. He said.

“When we won, we liked Murali Vijay, L balaji, B Badrinath, myself, Ms Dhoni, R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. It doesn’t work when you don’t bring local flavor,” he added.

CSK’s veterans fought for the form this season, Ravindra Jadeja (RS 18 Crore) and R Ashwin (RS 9.75 Crore) do not perform as expected.

On the other hand, CSK’s young players could not deliver regularly. Rachin Ravindra and Matheesha Pathirana, such as high -score of overseas players did not perform in the previous seasons.

Raina also criticized CSK’s approach in IPL 2025, especially in a stroke.

“When we played in Chennai, we didn’t play the point balls. Strike Rotation wins matches. We played the appropriate basic jack. We showed intention in the first six sea. And in death, Mrs. Dhoni and Albie Morkel’s likes.

On Sunday, CSK was defeated by nine small gates by Mumbai Indians (MI) by CSK patients. Rohit Sharma 76 and Suryakumar Yadav 68 unattrained strokes, Mi’nin innings to back up 26 balls to defeat CSK’yı.
