On Loss Against LSG, CSK Coach Stephen Fleming Takes “We Were Not Comfortable”
After the six-wicket loss to the Lucknow Super Giants, the head coach of the Chennai Super Kings, Stephen Fleming, said that the team is not focusing on finding a quick fix to their problems but rather on finding the right combination that will contribute during the back-end of the tournament.
Following the game, in the post-match press conference, Fleming said, "We are a little bit uncomfortable with some areas. So, we are just trying to find not a quick fix, but the right combination where players are going to contribute for the back end of this tournament. We have had injuries, and we have been a little bit unsettled, but the main thing is getting guys in key areas and in form, and that sometimes takes a bit of time. But yeah, there has been more change. Some of it is forced upon us, and some of it is form."
He further added, “We saw a great hundred from Ruturaj, absolute craft, fantastic knock, and he played incredibly well with some power to get us to a score of 210. So, we were not comfortable with that score, but we knew we were in the game. And we saw another great century from Marcus Stoinis. So, they answered pretty well. And in the end, it was a good game of cricket. We felt we competed well, given the conditions.”
