Injuries have played a part but the churn in the squad is hard to miss, with youngsters like Ayush Mhatre, Urvil Patel, Prashant and Kartik all getting a run.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"6\"\/>The franchise has been trading its signature settled core for a long-term investment, betting that blooding these youth now will yield dividends for years to come.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"wLCOS vdo_embedd\">\n<div class=\"ap_Bf\">\n<div class=\"ZM4zO\">\n<p><i class=\"bo2C4\"\/> <span>Watch<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <!-- -->Bhuvneshwar Kumar on RCB loss: \u2018It was just one off day\u2019<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>CSK batting coach <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/michael-hussey\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">Michael Hussey<\/a> acknowledged that the team is in a phase of transition.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/>\u201cIn a lot of ways, it\u2019s quite a new team. You know, there\u2019s quite a few new players there that have come in, some good young talent that we want to expose to some games as well. Ideally speaking, we\u2019d love to settle in on an 11 or a 12 that we\u2019re very comfortable with and then just sort of let those guys really grow into their roles. So hopefully, we can string a bit of form together, a few wins together, and then hopefully we\u2019ll have that confidence to stick with that same sort of team moving through.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>That approach is evident in the way they have persisted with 20-year-old Kartik.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/>The wicketkeeper-batter has endured a lean run in his first five matches.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/>Yet, Hussey remains confident that he is just one game away from finding his stride.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>\u201cHe\u2019s a great talent; I hope we can see him here at CSK for the next five, 10 years. He is ambitious and wants to do well. We\u2019d love to give him as much opportunity as possible and watch him really grow into that CSK shirt,\u201d he said.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/ipl-2026\/csk-keen-to-nurture-young-talent-for-next-decade-hope-to-see-him-here-for-510-years\/articleshow\/130708986.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CHENNAI: When Chennai Super Kings shelled out a staggering ?14.2 crore each for fresh faces Prashant Veer and Kartik Sharma at last Dec\u2019s IPL mini auction, it turned heads.
