Chennai Super Kings’ Consecutive Defeats in IPL 2024

Chennai Super Kings (CSK), a team known for its consistency and dominance in the Indian Premier League (IPL), faced an unexpected setback in the ongoing IPL 2024 season with consecutive defeats.

CSK’s woes continued in their fourth match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, where they faced another defeat, this time in Hyderabad. Despite putting up a competitive performance, CSK fell short against SRH, marking their second consecutive loss in IPL 2024.

The consecutive defeats didn’t go unnoticed by CSK fans, who took to social media platforms to express their disappointment.

The only reason we won the first two games was showing Peak Intent in the powerplay itself and Rachin was the man.

In last two games, Rachin couldn't get going and Inspite of taking responsibility and keep running the RR, Rutu doing TUK TUK.

It's him & Rahane who've to answer

It is all Dhoni's fault while he knows that whenever he hands over his captaincy to any other CSK player, it starts the downfall of our team, the same happened last time when Dhoni handed over the captaincy to Jadeja.🥲 pic.twitter.com/vzve1b8KNz

Awful batting in pp when the opposition is cooking 15 rr he was going run a ball threw his wicket when it was time to accelerate, sent Jaddu in 13th over

Tentative in powerplay, no more spin game like 2021, nicking every ball, doubting his shots.

His mindset is being his biggest villain, in for a long long tournament.
