CSK vs RCB Live Score Updates: "It was the confidence of staying with CSK," says newly-appointed skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad
Newly appointed Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad said that the confidence that the franchise gave him during his tough phase helped him play more freely.
CSK will kickstart the Ruturaj-era in the Indian Premier League (IPL) opener against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Chepauk Stadium on Friday.
Five-time IPL champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Thursday announced star opener Ruturaj Gikwad as the side's new skipper of the team. The decision marks the end of Dhoni's long reign at the helm of the CSK, during which he led them to five IPL titles.
Speaking in a video by CSK, Ruturaj said that the management was well aware of the tough phase Gaikwad was going through in the COVID-19, which affected his game as he could score just five runs across his first three innings for CSK, including two ducks. However, the franchise backed him and assured him that he would stay around in the team, which helped him turn around his fortunes. The stylish right-hander went on to hit successive three fifties in the next three games and performed consistently from then on.
"2020 I feel even the management felt what kind of year I was having due to COVID-19, due to quarantine and extended quarantine. It was the confidence of staying with CSK for an year or two at least that helped me a lot and go out there and play my expressive game," said Gaikwad in the video.
CSK's backing paid off big time as Ruturaj was the Orange Cap winner for most runs in the title-winning 2021 season, scoring 635 runs at an average of 45.35 and a strike rate of over 136, with a century and four fifties.
Having played for CSK since the beginning of his IPL career in 2020, Ruturaj has made 1,797 runs in 52 matches at an average of 39.07, with a century and 14 fifties. His best score is 101*. His runs have come at a strike rate of over 135. Ruturaj said that he sees his journey in the youngsters of the team.
"My first thing is to go and confront them. Even if they are not playing, there are things you could learn and take back home. It is upon you to how to take things. There are two ways of taking things, either negative or positive ways," said the batter.
The 27-year-old said that he tries to help youngsters and keep them in a great frame of mind.
"I am trying to help younger players who are not able to get games, make sure they are in good and happy space and do not feel frustrated. I also remind them about myself and how my journey was," concluded the batter. (ANI)

The CSK also have two wily domestic campaigners in pacers Deepak Chahar and Shardul Thakur.
CSK vs RCB Live Score Updates: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) Squad, batting options
CSK have placed enormous faith in new recruit Rachin Ravindra in the absence of Devon Conway, who will miss the initial part of IPL due to a thumb injury.
The CSK have more Kiwi flavour in Daryl Mitchell, a hard-hitting middle-order batter and a handy seamer.

CSK vs RCB Live Score Updates: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) Squad, batting options
Royal Challengers Bengaluru's skipper Faf du Plessis and star batter Virat Kohli, who is returning to competitive cricket after a two-month break, will once again have to shoulder the batting responsibility.
They are set to open together, but this time the addition of Cameron Green might act as a protection plan if one of them or both of them fail to get going. Green can also chip in as a bowler.
Then there is always Glenn Maxwell, whose high-return outings in last year's World Cup might not have been forgotten.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (or Bangalore) have a mix of extreme pace and skills in the fast bowling unit through Mohammed Siraj, Lockie Ferguson, Alzarri Joseph, Akash Deep and Reece Topley, but none of them are particularly good in death over situations. Also, with Faf du Plessis, Glenn Maxwell and Cameron Green likely to be the 3 overseas starters, who among Lockie Ferguson, Alzarri Joseph, and Reece Topley will partner Siraj and Akash Deep.
CSK vs RCB Live Score Updates: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) Squad, spin options
