'Things can turn around quickly': Hussey after CSK's fifth straight defeat

Following Chennai Super Kings' fifth consecutive loss in IPL 2025, batting coach Michael Hussey addressed the media with a candid and emotional assessment. Calling it a “really disappointing evening,” Hussey admitted the defeats were hurting the players, support staff, and fans alike. Emphasising the need for introspection, he urged the team to "stick tight together" and avoid panicking or making drastic changes. “We've got the right players. We just need to help them find confidence and consistency,” he said, adding that altering their natural playing style would be counterproductive. Hussey acknowledged the team's shortcomings across batting, bowling, and fielding but remained hopeful: “Things can turn around quickly — if we stay united and true to our identity.”
