How young Ruturaj Gaikwad sealed an opening slot in Chennai Super Kings? The 2020 season in UAE proved out to be the most forgetful year for the Yellow Army as they failed to make it to the playoffs for the first time in the history of the IPL.

The Maharashtra batter slammed three fifties in six innings he got to play in the 2020 edition and sealed an opening slot with Faf du Plessis.
