Former Pacer Says CSK Might Not See Playoffs: Chennai Super Kings had started their IPL journey in style. It seemed like they were the most settled team in the initial few matches. They also managed to stay in the top 4 for the most part. But now, after losing three of their last five games, they are facing the fear of getting knocked out of the competition before reaching the playoffs.
CSK could only win half of the 10 games they played. This gives them 10 points and a chair at 5th on the table. A better run rate helps them top SRH, who played a game less than the defending champions. This makes the upcoming games crucial for the Chennai franchise.

Former pacer Irfan Pathan, who now also wears the shirt of a pundit, points at CSK’s terrible situation in the tournament. Doomed with back-to-back injuries in the pace department, CSK will have more troubles in the upcoming matches, according to Irfan.
“They won the game against SRH despite the presence of dew, and the reason was their trump card, Pathirana. We don’t know when he will return. Mustafizur Rahman will not play from now on. Deepak Chahar is injured. Tushar Deshpande, who is the most underrated bowler, is not well, he said on Star Sports.
If the problem remains, Irfan doesn’t see CSK qualifying for the playoffs.
“There is no proper fast bowler available for CSK. They are in big trouble, and if the problem persists, they will likely miss the playoff berth,” he said.
