Team entered the field with wrong strategy

Need to put everything at stake
Clarke believes that Chennai now needs to play with full force. They should put everything at stake to win every match. He said that when a team loses continuously, the atmosphere of the dressing room also becomes negative. It is not easy to get out of such an atmosphere, but if the team has to return then the risk will have to be taken.
New thinking and new attitude is necessary
Clarke advised Chennai Super Kings that he should now move away from the old pattern and adopt a new age. Instead of postponing defeat, they should plan to win. Only confidence, aggressive attitude and courage can make them stand firm again in the tournament.
