That’s going to be the effect. His impact of leading key players in the side who are key performers for the CSK at the moment will miss him when he finishes.”At the heart of CSK's exemplary record in IPL are their fans and a defiant record at Chepauk to go with it.

In all, that record stands at 41 wins out of 57 matches played.“The whole lot of the success is based around winning at the home ground, they have it nailed to a tee. You go through the string of names, the spinners, all-rounders, like you said, plug-n-play. At the back of all this are the characters, the personalities, managed brilliantly by MS Dhoni and Stephen Fleming,” said Morgan.Read | After tumultuous 2022, Jadeja wants to do 'something special' for CSKConway's 77-run knock took him to fourth in the Orange Cap race, taking his tally to 258 runs.
