@Mahi_Patel_07 Kartik Sharma and Prashant Veer should be released. They don't justify the price tag. They are normal players. Not worth 14Cr. We need an explosive opened who can support Samson. We need quality experienced pacers and spinners. Compared to Spencer Johnson.. Nathan Ellis is better

[Abhishek Maaruthi @AMaaruthi]

@bdrijalab Urvil and Kartik are overrated
They just looked good because all the others were pathetic.
Sanju needs an experienced explosive opening partner. Preferably an overseas player who can fit into the Watson kind of role for CSK. Ayush at No 3. The rest of the team needs a reshuffle.

[Abhishek Maaruthi @AMaaruthi]

@SergioCulerCSK No
He's a miss more than hit kind of player.
Look at the top 10 run getters this season. More experienced players than youngsters.
Go back to Dhoni's formula of experienced players.. Find a good explosive Overseas opening batsman, hard hitting finisher and an exp fast bowler.

[Abhishek Maaruthi @AMaaruthi]

@internetumpire Explosive Overseas Opener
Experienced Fast Bowler
Hard Hitting Finisher

These were the biggest gaps in our 2026 campaign.
Stop trusting youngsters to do the job. Go back to Dhoni's formula of experience over youth. Urvil, Kartik, Veer have a long long way to go..

Zero Intent! Absolutely Zero Intent to Win!
Give a fair chance to new players like Shaik Rashed, Anshul Kamboj, Andre Siddharth and Ramakrishna Ghosh.. Ask Vansh Bedi to keep wickets. Bench Tripathi, Jadeja, Ashwin, Dhoni, Shankar, Mukesh and all.
Build the future.

6 out of the 8 batters can't bat!
4 out of the 6 bowlers can't bowl!
Captain wont open!
Keeper will bat at number 9!
No big hitters.. No left-right batting plan..
And if that's not enough.. Crowd at Chepauk chanting RCB RCB..!
Wooden Spoon Loading for sure..
