This IPL CSK weren’t there, says Dhoni after loss to RR

TIL Desk Sports/ Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni on Monday seemed resigned to his fate after a seven-wicket defeat to Rajasthan Royals (RR) that pushed his team to the brink of ouster, even as he admitted that “this season we weren’t really there”.

“It`s not always supposed to go your way. That`s why what we try is going back to the process and see if the process is wrong or maybe we weren`t able to execute. Result is always a by-product of the process. What it does is it helps you think in a positive way,” Dhoni said after the match.

“We play in front of millions of people so there is nothing to hide. The fact remains that if you`re busy with the process then the undue pressure of results doesn`t get into the dressing room. We`ve tried a few things. That`s one thing you don`t want to do; you don`t want to chop and change a lot, because what happens is after three-four-five games you`re not sure of anything,” he said.
