IPL 2022 LIVE: Swann Gives A Reality Check to Jadeja About Captaincy
IPL 2022 LIVE: Earlier in the 15th edition of the Indian T20 League, CSK had appointed Ravindra Jadeja as their new captain. And then there was a mess among CSK fans as they were going to see CSK without MS Dhoni’s captaincy.
But now the scenario has become normal as Jadeja has stepped down from captaincy as Dhoni returned in his vintage role. The decision to make Jadeja a full-time captain did not work at all. Under his captaincy, CSK struggled a lot in the ongoing IPL 2022. Not only this but also it affected Jadeja as an individual. His performance in IPL 2022 is very low.

After the announcement of Jadeja’s captaincy leaving, several former cricketers came front to back him. Graeme Swann and former India head coach Ravi Shastri also come forward to support Jadeja with his decision. Swann praised Jadeja to admit that leadership is not his cup of tea. More importantly, Jadeja doesn’t allow his male ego to understand the fact that he is not comfortable with the captaincy.

“We all have our favorite teams to play against and the fact that he has done well against RCB in the past is pretty important. It is such a big thing for Jadeja to admit that ‘look, captaincy is out of my league. I am not comfortable with it. The male ego doesn’t allow you to say it comfortably. So, the fact that he has done that and allowed MS to get back in is better for him, CSK and it is good news all around and honestly, I love him,”

Swann added more that Jadeja is a brilliant cricketer as a player only. He has done tremendous jobs playing in this franchise. Moreover, Ravi Shastri lauded Swann’s statement and admired Jadeja’s bold attitude. Shastri said that being straightforward sometimes becomes hard to do and for that everyone should applaud Jadeja. Shastri added that Jadeja has not been captained at the stage of cricket.

So suddenly becoming the captain of such a big franchise like CSK will always be tough. And it is very normal to leave the role if he doesn’t handle the pressure. Shastri has also shown he believes that after leaving the captaincy Jadeja can start his preparation in all three departments. And a big performance from Jadeja is coming soon as CSK fans are expecting eagerly to watch their vintage Jadeja back in form.
