‘Ruturaj Gaikwad can do more’: CSK coach Stephen Fleming on captain’s underwhelming outings in IPL 2026

New Delhi: Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming has thrown his weight behind captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, but conceded that he could 'do more' after his underwhelming performances in the Indian Premier League 2026. Gaikwad had set the stage alight in his early CSK years, but hasn't had the same success this time around, having been caught in something that hasn't let him flow freely.ย  Gaikwad is not known to be a serial six-hitter like Vaibhav Sooryavanshi or Priyansh Arya, but his classical play can keep him striking in the 140s to 150s alongside his anchoring skills.
