Gavaskar explained how last season’s failure to make the playoffs impacted normal operations in the CSK camp.

“Before last year, this was a team that had always made the playoffs. So, yeah, their failure to qualify for the playoffs had to be an aberration, given how well they’ve recovered. They’ve returned with a vengeance. It’s incredible, to say the least ” Says the former captain of India.”

Sunil also praised CSK’s administration and its player-friendly environment. According to him, the fact that they have such strong fan and player devotion demonstrates how well the franchise is operated both on and off the field.

“The fans have invested so much in this franchise… Having such a large fan base just goes to show what this series is all about “he stated.

“As I have stated, if Mumbai Indians do not win, I would prefer CSK to win. At CSK, I’ve had some of my best cricketing moments. There is a very player-friendly administration there… That is why, even among admirers, there is such a strong sense of commitment. The supporters in Chennai are well-versed in the game; in fact, they are well-versed in the game ” Gavaskar added.

The champion of the Eliminator between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Kolkata Knight Riders will now face DC (KKR).
