Things are not going well for the men in yellow and it is one of the very rare times when you will see CSK at the bottom of the table. Well, if back to back losses were not enough, there is some more depressing news for fans. Dwayne Bravo, a vital part of the team is likely to miss out on the next few matches due to a right groin injury.
The Trinidadian made news when skipper MS Dhoni preferred Ravindra Jadeja over him in a nail-biting last over against Delhi. Fans did not take it lightly as CSK lost the match by 5 wickets and criticized the management and the captain for the same.

However, later in the post match presentation, MSD confirmed that Bravo, who was obviously his first choice, was not available to bowl.
“Bravo was not fit, he went out and was really not able to come back. That was the reason we had to bowl (Jadeja). The option was between Karn and Jaddu so I went ahead with Jaddu,” – Said MS Dhoni
Coach Steven Fleming too informed that the West Indian all-rounder is not fit and can miss out the next few matches due to a groin injury. He added that Bravo was really disappointed that he could not bowl the last over.
This is a really major setback for the Men in Yellow as Bravo is one of the most experienced death bowlers in the tournament and there are a very few people who has as many bowling variations as he does.
