Fans React To CSK Injury Woes: Several teams are going into the 2024 season of the IPL with one or more players injured. But the injury bug has bitten no team worse than defending champions Chennai Super Kings.
We are only a couple of days away from the start of the tournament and CSK has several of their players who will not be playing due to injuries.
The player whose absence will bite CSK the most is Devon Conway. The side’s highest run scorer last season has been behind the Super Kings’ strong start to their innings for a few seasons now. The injury he suffered in a recent T20I playing for New Zealand will cost CSK a lot.

The other two injuries are somewhat related. The team’s young pacer Mathesha Pathirana and Bangladeshi pacer Mustafizur Rahman.
Pathirana suffered a hamstring injury during Sri Lanka’s recent matches against Bangladesh. Reports suggest that he will be out for 4-5 weeks, meaning he will miss the first few matches for the side.
While Rahman, who was bought as a replacement for Pathirana in the auction, went off the field on a stretcher in the CSK training camp. He recently took to social media to announce that he will be joining the team for its first IPL 2024 match. He might not be out for long.

With all these injuries going around, fans on social media are reacting in different ways to this news.
Some fans have faith in MS Dhoni, believing in the 42-year-old to have a plan for the situation –
While some others have been trolling the fact that Tushar Deshpande, whose economy was just under 10 in IPL 2023, will head the fast bowling attack if Mustafizur and Pathirana both skip matches –
IPL 2024 will kick off on March 22 when Chennai Super Kings take on Royal Challengers Bangalore in Chennai MA Chidambaram Stadium.
