Former India head coach Anil Kumble feels that the South African youth has the ability to have a long -term wealth for Chennai Super Kings struggling in Developed Brevis. CSK lost to Sunrisers Hyderabad by five wickets in Chennai, marking his fourth straight home necklace. However, debutant Bravis scored with 25 balls with four sixes and a honorable clan of 154 with a four sixes after the decline in the season. Brevis injured unaccounted left-bed fasted-bouler Gurjapneet Singh came as a replacement, which was for the rest of the 2025 season.
“His ability to play spin was really standing out. Chennai is not easy-it is a two-book wicket where he holds an odd ball. He has done it first in South Africa, first-class cricket, and in the under-19, which he came in the IPL. In 2011, RCB and an icon became an icon.
The mythological spinner shared his views on Chennai’s team combinations and possible direction and needed to move forward.
“I felt that despite Ruturaj and Davon Conway – not being in the best form of Conway – should have started together. The pair had won the CSK title a few years ago. Rachin Ravindra is a brilliant young talent, but in this format, he ran away – maybe the number three may have suited him better,” he said.
“Middle order lacked power outside Shivam Dubey. The game is now getting with Brevis and Mahtre, it is a positive. But he needs to start thinking beyond the path.
Sunrisers Hyderabad’s pacer Harshal Patel was a catalyst of CSK’s collapse as he returned with 4-28 figures to play the match player for the match.
While reflecting Patel’s performance, Kumbal highlighted his experience and understanding of format. “After a long time fulfilling this format, Harshal brings that invaluable experience – especially in bowling the hard overs. He has been a purple cap holder once or two times, and he shows knowledge. Whatever is right, it had the ability to hit the right length, especially at places like Chennai and Chinswami.
