Ruturaj Gaikwad, who was the captain of the chennai Super Kings team, withdrew from the fifth match of the 2025 IPL due to an elbow injury. The question was asked at that time whether the elbow injury was serious enough to withdraw from the series. However, following his withdrawal, dhoni was appointed as the captain of the chennai Super Kings team. Even after changing the captain, the chennai Super Kings team has not recovered in any way. It has won only four of the 14 matches it has played and is in the last place in the points table. In this situation, Ruturaj Gaikwad, who withdrew from the IPL series due to injury, has now been included in the india 'A' team and toured england before the end of the IPL series. This has raised doubts among many.
Was Ruturaj Gaikwad really injured? Was his injury so bad that he could not play the entire IPL series? The question has arisen. If he really has an elbow injury, how can he be included in the india 'A' team and go to England? Because the india 'A' team is going to play three practice matches in England. These are four-day Test matches, in which a batsman will have to stand and bat for a long time. A person who has recovered from an injury can definitely play in such four-day matches only after passing a fitness test. Also, since the first match starts from june 3, everyone has to do net training before that. A player who does not do net training cannot be included in the match. If so, Ruturaj Gaikwad is considered fully fit and has traveled with the india 'A' team. If so, he could have batted in the latter part of the IPL series as well.


 Why did CSK drop him altogether, saying that he would not be able to play the entire IPL series? The question has arisen. chennai Super Kings have only won one of their first five matches, so did the CSK team management remove Ruturaj Gaikwad from captaincy due to dissatisfaction with him? Or did the team management and Ruturaj Gaikwad have any differences of opinion? There is also a suspicion that this is the first time that CSK has suffered a setback in the IPL. Despite defeating GT, they finished last. At the same time, it was reported that Ruturaj Gaikwad had withdrawn from the IPL series due to an elbow injury. The question immediately arose as to how a person with an elbow injury that prevented him from batting could swing a football in both hands without any pain. Now that he has qualified for the india A team, this has only strengthened the case further.
