After a 43-run defeat against RCB on Sunday, CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad said, "I would have contributed more [at the] top of the order." "You never know, they (middle-order batters) would have chased it down. So definitely it's on me," he added. Gaikwad, who scored 7(3), has led the side to three consecutive losses in IPL 2026.
