On Tuesday, CSK defeated the Delhi Capitals (DC) by six wickets at the Feroz Shah Kotla stadium in New Delhi. The Chennai based franchise was named as Dad’s army as most of their players are above 30. They have channelized their experience and winning the games with dominance. Recently, CSK all-rounder Dwayne Bravo revealed some fascinating facts about the team meetings ahead of their matches.
After defeating Delhi, Bravo CSK don’t have a habit of planning before every match as they just take the field and go with the flow on any given day. He said that the players used their experience in order to read the situation and plan accordingly during the game itself.

Bravo elaborated, “We don’t plan. we don’t have team meetings. We just turn up, go with the flow on any given day. So yeah we just watch the situation and adjust and adapt quickly. That’s where the experience comes in. We proved last season, you know, age is just a number. Whenever people talked about the CSK team, they brought in the age factor. We are not 60 years old, yeah. We are 35, 30, 32… We are still young; we look after ourselves, we look after our body, and we have a lot of experience and don’t matter what, you can’t beat experience in any sport, in any tournament. In anything you just cannot beat experience.”
Earlier, CSK team managed faced immense criticism for picking aged players during the auction as they were termed as ‘Daddy’s army’ during the IPL 2018 but under the captaincy of MS Dhoni, the team defied odds to win the IPL 2018 trophy, which was also CSK’s third in the tournament’s history. The same was said before the start of the ongoing IPL 2019, but after the end of the first two games, it seems that this team knows how to silence their critics.
