Fleming admitted that the season had sent shock waves not only among CSK fans but also players and management.“The fact that we have been so consistent in a certain number of years, to have a bad year is in a way to shake everyone. The challenge for us is to review everything we do and that we have done in the past, to make sure that we follow our philosophies, but also the identification of talent,” he said.Fleming has categorically denied that CSK will change their approach in the future and show more confidence in young people of the next season.

“It’s one thing to say that we want a team full of young players, but you have to find them. It is therefore a question of identifying talent and ensuring that they correspond,” he said.“As for the experience, what I will say again, I like it. You have an eye for the best passers-by and carries, and you see that there is a good experience there. But what it is sprinkled is incredible performances of young players who play in a way of fearless cricket. So, it is therefore a question of achieving this balance. And that’s what we are looking for.”
