IPL 2022: Rating captains of all teams based on performance so far

8. Ravindra Jadeja- Chennai Super Kings (5/10)

Ravindra Jadeja was handed the captaincy of Chennai Super Kings after MS Dhoni decided to pass the baton just prior to the commencement of IPL 2022. It was surely going to be a tricky task for the Indian all-rounder, who had no prior experience in leading an IPL franchise. So far, things have not looked good for the defending champions, as they are placed ninth on the points table, with just two wins from their eight games.

Ravindra Jadeja’s performance has not been inspiring, as he has managed to score just 112 runs at an average of 22.40. Moreover, he has picked up only five wickets at an average of 42.60, and an economy rate of over 8.00. The veteran all-rounder has failed to assert his authority in high-pressure games, as MS Dhoni is often seen giving out the commands on the field. Perhaps, the pressure of captaincy duties is also affecting Ravindra Jadeja’s own performance out in the middle.
