A massive controversy has erupted in the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) camp following Ravindra Jadeja’s exit from the bio-bubble. The official CSK release has stated that the all-rounder has been released since the franchise did not want to aggravate the rib injury he picked up during one of the IPL 2022 matches. However, a number of media reports have claimed that Jadeja walked out of the bio-bubble following a tiff with the management over the captaincy issue. The fact that Chennai unfollowed the 33-year-old on Instagram only added fuel to the fire. All these developments raise the big question - was Jadeja treated unfairly by the CSK management?

WRONG MOVE TO ELEVATE JADEJA TO CAPTAINCY?

The first question that obviously comes to mind in the wake of everything that has transpired is whether the decision to appoint Jadeja as CSK skipper was the right one in the first place. The all-rounder did not have much previous experience in leadership and looked like a fish out of the water as a leader. Even when he was leading, it seemed that MS Dhoni was the one calling the shots. Jadeja looked lost and nervous, and the additional responsibility affected his game out in the middle.
