Middle order batting failure
While CSK openers Shane Watson and Ambati Rayudu provided a good 46-run partnership, next batsmen failed to carry on that momentum. The next batsmen totally struggled against the host bowling-up while CSK also lost their wickets in regular intervals.
The middle-order batting failure gradually decreased their chances to win that game. Later, Ravindra Jadeja tried hard, but he didn’t get enough support from the other batsmen.
