It is a losing streak for CSK in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League. Not many expected this to happen. The key to getting back to winning could be a few minor tweaks in the tactics. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of two simple tactical moves which could help CSK win games in IPL 2025.
1) Ruturaj Gaikwad as one of the openers
Ruturaj is one of the best openers in the league. Him playing at No.3 just does not make sense for himself and the team. Therefore, at the earliest, he should make the move back to the top of the order.
A quality cricketer like him can make the best use of the field restrictions. Later, he has the game to score a big one, as well. Yes, the middle order is weak but in this modern era, playing with intent at the start is very vital.
2) Bowling Matheesha Pathirana in the powerplay could help CSK win games in IPL 2025
CSK is not at its best when it comes to bowling in the powerplay. The usage of R Ashwin has not helped the outfit during this phase.
You could tell that bowling in the final few overs of the powerplay and the death overs requires similar skills. Pathirana is an expert and therefore, it is wise to have him bowl at least once in the first six overs.
