CSK vs PBKS: Twitter Reacts As Ruturaj Gaikwad Registers Third Successive Single-Digit Score In IPL 2022

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) opener Ruturaj Gaikwad failed for the third successive time to get a good start in IPL 2022. After getting out for 0 and 1 in his first two games, Gaikwad was dismissed for 1 in the game against Punjab Kings. CSK are chasing 181 to win their first game of the season.

Ruturaj Gaikwad ended with the Orange Cap in IPL 2021 scoring 635 runs for the season. But so far this season, the right-hander has not found his range. In this game, Gaikwad was dismissed by Kagiso Rabada who nicked him off to slips getting caught by Shikhar Dhawan.

Ruturaj Gaikwad’s Scores In IPL 2022 So Far- 0, 1, 1

The Twitterverse was not impressed with Gaikwad’s triple failures. Gaikwad was retained by CSK in ahead of IPL 2022 along with MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja and Moeen Ali. CSK not scoring too many runs is down to Gaikwad’s failures with the bat as well.

Sad to see last year's orange cap holder Gaikwad in such hopeless form this season starting, with scores of 0, 1 & 1.

Hope he turns around his form soon!#<!---->C<!---->S<!---->K #<!---->C<!---->S<!---->K<!---->v<!---->P<!---->B<!---->K<!---->S #<!---->R<!---->u<!---->t<!---->u<!---->r<!---->a<!---->j<!---->G<!---->a<!---->i<!---->k<!---->w<!---->a<!---->d

Ruturaj Gaikwad paying for the sons of that brain-dead fanbase. Trolling Dravid, Rohit, KL Rahul, Shaw, Gill everyone; just because another glorified anchor didn't get a playing 11 spot for India when there are a million openers in contention! ??

Ruturaj Gaikwad has been dismissed thrice while facing 9 bouncers in his IPL career.

Punjab Kings' pacers might test Ruturaj with the moving ball and well-directed short balls.

Can the CSK opener overcome the powerplay challenge and fire tonight?#<!---->C<!---->S<!---->K<!---->v<!---->P<!---->B<!---->K<!---->S p<!---->i<!---->c<!---->.<!---->t<!---->w<!---->i<!---->t<!---->t<!---->e<!---->r<!---->.<!---->c<!---->o<!---->m<!---->/<!---->0<!---->0<!---->I<!---->c<!---->y<!---->Z<!---->n<!---->m<!---->w<!---->f

No disrespect to Ruturaj Gaikwad,but had Shaw/Gill/Ishan/Padikkal scored just 2 runs in the opening 3 games, cricket twitter would have brutally bashed them

Feeling really bad for Gaikwad. Not a single score in the first 3 matches. Hope he finds his touch back in the upcoming matches. He is quality , we have seen that.

Earlier in the game, Punjab Kings scored 180/8 batting first at the Brabourne stadium. Liam Livingstone scored 60 off 32 balls and in the process, hit the longest six of IPL 2022. The Kings after faltering at the start was brought back on track by Livingstone. However, after his dismissal, the Punjab innings lost track again and could not get over the 200-run mark.
