Ashwin Says Dhoni May Let CSK Kids Run The Show
Ashwin said Dhoni may be letting Ruturaj Gaikwad and Stephen Fleming run the show while he sits out with a calf strain. He compared it to Mumbai Indians in 2013. The message was clear: let the young CSK group play free, learn fast, and not carry the full weight of that five title empire. Big stage. Big lesson.
Quick rundown
- Ashwin thinks Dhoni may be quietly training CSK’s future leaders from the sidelines.
- He compared CSK’s leadership handover idea to Mumbai Indians’ Ponting-to-Rohit switch.
- Ashwin said Dhoni’s experience is irreplaceable and central to CSK’s success.
- The young CSK squad was told to ditch the trophy baggage and just play ball.
- Even a rough season, Ashwin said, can turn into a masterclass in growth.
