What made Jadeja so upset with CSK? Jadeja spent 10 years with Chennai Super Kings after being signed in the 2012 auction. During his time in Chennai, the Rockstar won two IPL titles, establishing himself as one of the finest all-rounders in the game. One of the senior most members, the 31-year-old was handed the baton after MS Dhoni decided to step down and was retained for a whopping Rs 16 crore.
However, CSK lost six games in their eight outings under his captaincy. Jadeja even lost his form and managed to score only 111 runs and took three wickets in these matches. Finally Jadeja was removed from the captaincy. Soon after the sack, Jadeja was ruled out of the last few games of the season citing a rib injury. However, the sudden departure from the camp sparked rumors of a rift with the franchise.
