00:00 How hard is this defeat? And can you just also give us an update on Adam Milne's fitness
00:23 and how soon is he expected to make a comeback?
00:26 It's a hard one. We had times, we had pockets in the game where we were well in control
00:30 with the bat and then with the start we had we were in really good shape. So lose games
00:35 like that where you play a fair bit of it in front is often hard to take but they played
00:41 very well to take it away from us. We could have been better in some departments but they
00:46 still played very well. Adam's progressing, obviously not as quick as what we would like
00:51 him to be. So we're monitoring him very closely and hoping for some improvement. But yeah,
00:57 it is taking a little bit of time.
00:59 Is bowling has been a weak spot for CSK this season. With Deepak Chahar out, have you thought
01:05 about any replacements for the remainder of the tournament?
01:10 Yeah we're looking. We've got still some talent within our squad that hasn't had the opportunity,
01:16 which is hard in a tournament where you're behind the eight ball. It's a lot easier to
01:21 try combinations when you're winning games. But we're really in a must-win situation so
01:26 we've been conservative with our selections. We've got some talent within our side that
01:29 we'd so like to see and see how they respond under pressure. And also that with 10 teams
01:35 there's not a lot of talent that hasn't been picked over. But yeah, we're aware we can
01:40 get a replacement but we're still very aware there's some untapped talent within our side.
01:44 Would you say that Shivam Dubey not being able to take the catch of David Miller was
01:49 the turning point of the game or do you think Rashid's knock neutralised that effect?
01:54 I think there were a lot of moments throughout the match that he could over-analyse. But
02:00 the two contributing factors was an outstanding innings from David Miller and a very good
02:05 cameo from Rashid towards the end. The other aspect that was notable was the last five
02:12 overs in our innings where they bowled well and we didn't capitalise on what was a very
02:17 good base. So there were some key moments throughout but they were the two areas. The
02:22 last five overs for us with the bat and the last five overs when they batted, quite a
02:27 distinct difference in scoring.
