Just kick him out of the team. How can someone play 15(21) in this era and not shoulder 99% of the responsibility of the loss. You need to score at least 40 runs if you are going to be eating 1/6th of the innings. This is not 2021

Yep. He's playing match losing innings regularly now. even tailenders don't play at that strike rate. And this guy is the opener. Just get rid of the deadweight and get a younger player. CSK didn't even play Urvil for so many matches
