What Makes Players Succeed After Joining CSK? Navjot Singh Siddhu Explains the Reason Brilliantly

The Chennai Super Kings consistently remain at the top of the IPL points table and almost always make it to the playoffs. Although CSK may not always have the strongest team, they frequently manage to extract the finest performance from them. Players who failed to make an impression with other IPL teams, such as Moeen Ali, Shivam Dube, Shane Watson, etc., have performed incredibly well for the Super Kings. While many have commented on the improvement in these players, former Indian cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu softly outlined the cause of this improvement, giving MS Dhoni and CSK the credit they deserve.

Siddhu explains Dhoni's positioning style

Sidhu encountered a variety of queries in a Star Sports conversation, from MS Dhoni's batting position to CSK's contribution to a player's improved form.

Sidhu stated that the team was correct to place the uncapped Indian player higher in the batting order when questioned about the promotion of newbie Sameer Rizvi over MS Dhoni in the finisher's role.

Talent is nothing without opportunity. You have to give youngsters an opportunity. One is giving opportunity and the other thing is the player accepting the challenge. You have got to give Rizvi that confidence.

The same player isn't that strong in the other team, but when he comes to Dhoni, he becomes a completely different player, how? Because a good leader is the one who walks behind him and ignites faith.

MS Dhoni wants to put all his effort in Ruturaj's captaincy

As Dhoni always possesses the role of a finisher, he is working on producing players like him who can handle the pressure in death overs and play the role of finisher. Besides this, he is also training Ruturaj Gaikwad about how he handled captaincy for CSK and won 5 titles. CSK franchise fully trusts that Dhoni must have handed over his captaincy to Gaikwad after giving and examining various thoughts.

A drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of vinegar. So, therefore, fitting people in their rightful place is what is most important. Dhoni is an asset when he bats and finishes. Jadeja and Dhoni, one plus one is 11. They are multiplying their strength. Dhoni has nothing to prove. The biggest strength of a leader is that he builds future leaders. He will unlock the potential of the youngsters.

The bigger challenge is not batting at No. 3 or No. 4, the bigger challenge is when you bat for the last six overs, the last 7 overs. That is the time when you are tested, why? That's when you are going to be scoring 1 ball, 3 runs. 1 ball, 2 and a half. This skill is in a very few people. I am telling you, it's not easy to be a finisher. You are not getting accolades, but it's the quality of those runs, that actually helps the team win or lose.
