CSK coach Stephen Fleming has named Warriors’ Aussie duo Finch and Smith as reason for their defeat.
Chennai Super Kings crashed to an embarrassing 24-run home defeat against IPL strugglers Pune Warriors India on Monday, with coach Stephen Fleming annoyed by Pune’s Steve Smith.
Fleming has signaled to Smith’s unorthodox batting as the reason why the Warriors amassed their winning margin, as well as the fact Chennai’s batsmen were not good enough.
Smith’s Man of the Match performance, coupled with fellow Australian Aaron Finch’s 67 runs from 45 balls, helped Pune pick up only their second win of the tournament and lift them out of the bottom two for the first time in 2013.
