New Delhi. The first match of IPL 2024 was played between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore. In this match, the Chennai Super Kings team captained by Ruturaj Gaikwad registered a spectacular victory. Gaikwad was made the captain of CSK just a few days ago. He won everyone’s hearts in the first match. After the match, Gaikwad said that I have Mahi Bhai with me so I did not feel any pressure.
Gaikwad said in the post match conference, “We had complete control of the match. Two-three overs were costly for us but when the spinners and Mustafizur came, we came under control. I felt it would have been better if we had given 10-15 runs less. But in the end he played well. I enjoyed my captaincy a lot.”
A week ago, he was taken off the field on a stretcher, now became ‘Player of the Match’ in the very first match of IPL.
Gaikwad further said, “I did not feel that there was too much pressure on me during the match. The way I captain my state. That’s exactly what it felt like. I have experience in understanding and managing situations. This is why I enjoyed. Not even once did I feel pressured. I had Mahi Bhai. This was a super cool moment for me.”
