“You Left Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant…”: Suresh Raina Goes On Scathing Attack At Rock-Bottom CSK

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) fell to her sixth defeat in eight matches in IPL 2025 Sunday, losing nine counters against the Mumbai Indians (MI). The defeat meant that CSK remains at the bottom of the rock in the table of the IPL points, the hopes of the qualifying series are uningking. CSK’s striker and bowling alike failed to deliver in a consistent manner several times, and the defeat against MI prompted the former Indian cricket player and the legend of CSK Suresh Raina to question the strategy of the franchise in the mega auction IPL 2025.

“”Mujhe lagta hai kahin na kahin inse (CSK) Auction Achant Nahi Hua Hai. Main auction of talented players, Itne Youngsters The. Kaha Hai Woh players? (I think that the CSK auction was not good. There are so many young people and talents in the auction. Where are they?), “Said Raina, speaking on Star Sports.

CSK had entered the 2025 IPL mega mega with an RS 55 handbag crores. Noor Ahmad (RS 10 Core) and R Ashwin (RS 9.75 crore) were their two highest purchases. However, Raina criticized the franchise for missing names like Shreyas Iyer or Rishabh Pant.

“”AAP itna paisa leke jaate ho auction ke liye. AAPNE Rishabh pants Ko Chhoda, Shreyas Iyer Ko ChhodaKl Rahul Ko Chhoda. CSK team Ko Kabhi Aise Nahi Dekha struggles Karte Huye (You have taken so much money in the auction, but you let go of Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant and Kl Rahul. I have never seen CSK fight like that), “said Raina.

The former former CSK player, Harbhajan Singh, echoes Raina’s feelings and made a question mark on the scouts of CSK’s talents.

“”Yuvaon Main Bhi Waise Yuva Dikhe Nahi Jo Changing Wali Manning Khel Saké. Inke talent pool ko jo hunt karte hai unko bhi bitha ke puchhna chahiye ki ‘kya aapne hume information di thi jis jiske chalte humne yeh logon ko select kiya tha“(Even the young people of the CSK do not seem to be those who can play a round that changes the situation. Whoever fought by talent for CSK must be questioned where they have obtained their information for these players),” said Harbhajan.

While Noor was a revelation, picking up 12 counters in eight games, the other renowned CSK purchases did not increase. Ashwin finds himself in and out of the team after an uneven form, while Rachin Ravira, Devon Conway, Jamie Overton, Vijay Shankar and Rahul Tripathi behaved badly. Even the high prices retention like Ravira Jadeja (RS 18 Core) have performed less than normal.
