One’s Cricketing Career Be Complete – Ruturaj Gaikwad

With less than a week to go for the Ranji Trophy season, Rituraj Gaikwad believes that his cricket career won’t be complete unless he can score runs in both Tests and ODIs. He stated that he is working hard to establish himself across formats. He recently smashed a List “A” record seven sixes in a single over against Uttar Pradesh left-arm spinner Shiva Singh on the way to a double century.

“Though I have scored runs in T20 cricket, I want to play and do well in 50-overs format and Tests too. Only then will one’s cricketing career be complete,” Ruturaj said.

We Will Bounce Back This Season – Ruturaj Gaikwad

Gaikwad believes Chennai Super Kings will be at their best in the Indian Premier League (IPL) season 2023. The four-time champions could only manage a ninth-place finish in their previous campaign. The CSK 2022 season has been ruined due to injuries, poor performance, and a change of captaincy.

“The Chennai Super Kings team is preparing for the 2023 IPL season. There would possibly be training camps after the player auction is held. In the 2022 season, the team was hit following injuries to key players. A T20 match is decided based on the performances of the players on the day. We will bounce back this season.”
