5 things that went wrong with Tamil Thalaivas in their home leg of Season 6

#1 Ajay Thakur - The Lone Thalaiva

Thalaivas got shook with Sukesh Hegde's injury in the first match itself. However, things seemed a bit recovered as Surjeet scored 7 raid points in the first match versus Patna.

Ajay stood as the lone warrior in the raiding charge scoring 59 raid points in 5 matches with 3 Super 10s. He could only get a bit support from Athul MS who scored 24 raid points in 4 games.

The team lacked intense raiders from the get-go. Sukesh Hegde, Surjeet Singh, and Jasvir Singh dealt with injuries where it looked as if it was the same Tamil Thalaivas of Season 5. The lack of namely all-rounders except for Manjeet Chhillar (who is a pure defender as of now) also costed the Thalaivas heavily.

Later on, Ajay looked sluggish in the raiding where he got tackled by the left corner defenders namely Vishal Bhardwaj and Ran Singh and pressure was clearly visible on Ajay's face.

Tamil Thalaivas will look to start on a fresh note when they face Bengaluru Bulls away from home for the first time in Season 6 on 17th October 2018.
