The Playoffs had begun in style at Eden Gardens on Tuesday. Being the top two teams in the points table, Gujarat and Rajasthan had locked horns in Qualifier 1.

For his splendid performance in bat and ball, Chennai's son of soil Ravichandra Ashwin was conferred with the Man of the Match award as he took his team Royals to the victory.

The talented New Zealander has been making the team think that why it has missed him during the initial phase of the series when CSK's batting line-up was suffering.

"We had a good start and had wickets in hand, the surface kept getting better but we lost wickets at regular intervals", Dhoni divulged.

CSK has put the target of 203 on the board for Hyderabad and the chasers came close to the target and eventually, Chennai won the match by 13 runs.

Though the victory has kept the team's position intact, it was a promising triumph as it has come when the defending champion was positioned at the end of the road. 

The transition has become a surprise for the CSK fans and through Jadeja's relinquishment of captaincy, MS Dhoni is now the captain of the CSK.

After Dhoni's dismissal, the hopes of the CSK got shattered. Punjab Kings won the game by 11 runs and it is almost the end of the road for the CSK this year.

Though fans reaffirm their love and support for him, it's high time that he must reaffirm to the Indian team that he can't be written off. 

Commenting about the catches that he dropped, Jadeja said, "It happens, that's why I never take fielding for granted and practice hard. We need to work on our feeling, can't afford to drop catches."
