IPL 2019: Chennai Super Kings dealt a body blow. Find how?


Xtra Time Web Desk:
Chennai Super Kings suffered a body blow as Dwayne Bravo has been ruled out of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2019) for two weeks with a Grade 1 hamstring tear. The Trinidadian has been an integral part of the Yellow Army.

“It’s going to cause a little bit of rejigging of the team but I am sure we are going to be able to put together a very strong team. It’s a big loss but we have had these challenges in the past. Let’s hope we can do this again,” said Mike Hussey, the batting coach of Super Kings ahead of their clash against Kings XI Punjab at Chepauk on Saturday.

Bravo joins Lungi Ngidi and David Willey, both of whom were ruled out at the start of the cash rich league. New Zealand’s Scott Kuggeleijn has been signed as a replacement for Ngidi last week.
With Bravo now missing due to injury, MS Dhoni will have some major concerns as to who to bowl at the death overs as the Caribbean cricketer was the go to man for his captain.

“I am sure MS [Dhoni] and [Stephen] Fleming will be looking at Scott Kuggeleijn and assessing his death bowling skills. We’ve also got Shardul [Thakur] and Mohit [Sharma], who can bowl at the death as well,” said Hussey.
