The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have had a tough start to IPL 2025, losing their first two matches and sitting at the bottom of the points table. 

Their recent defeat against Rajasthan Royals, where they failed to chase a target of 183 runs, has raised concerns about their form this season. 

CSK needs to make some important changes to improve their performance and get back to winning ways. Here are three things they can do:

1. Fix the Batting Order

CSK’s batting lineup has struggled to chase big targets, and this has been one of their biggest problems. 

In their last few games, the top order hasn’t provided strong starts, and the middle order hasn’t been able to finish games well. 

While Ruturaj Gaikwad scored a half-century in the last match, other batters haven’t stepped up consistently.

To fix this issue, CSK should focus on building partnerships at the top and middle order. They could promote aggressive players higher up in the batting lineup to score quickly in the powerplay. 

Adding experienced players who perform well under pressure could also help stabilize the team during tough chases.

2. Improve Bowling Plans

CSK’s bowling attack hasn’t been effective in stopping runs during key moments of matches. While they have good spinners like Ravindra Jadeja and R. Ashwin, and recently added Noor Ahmad, they need better strategies to use them effectively.

Their pace bowlers also need to step up, especially in the death overs.

To improve their bowling, CSK should focus on analyzing the strengths of opposing batters and adjusting their plans accordingly. 

Using variations in pace and spin, setting attacking fields, and bowling tighter lines can help them control runs and take wickets at crucial times.

3. Strengthen Leadership on the Field

This season, Ruturaj Gaikwad is leading CSK as captain, but he is still new to this role and needs time to grow as a leader. 

His decisions during matches, such as field placements and bowling changes, will be very important for CSK’s success.

To support Gaikwad, experienced players like MS Dhoni can guide him with advice on tactics and strategies. 

Building strong communication among players on the field can also help make better decisions during matches and improve teamwork.
