IPL 2022: Why Ravindra Jadeja isn't playing for CSK against DC?

Former Chennai Super Kings skipper Ravindra Jadeja wasn't named in the playing XI of CSK, for their crucial must-win game against Delhi Capitals, at the DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai, on Sunday evening. 

With CSK needing to win all four of their remaining games, Jadeja won't feature in the match against Delhi Capitals because of an injury issue to the all-rounder. 

Skipper MS Dhoni informed after the toss that Jadeja misses out because of an injury, however, he didn't elaborate, on what kind of injury it is, and how long will Jadeja be out of contention.

Shivam Dube has replaced Jadeja in the playing XI, while Dwayne Bravo also makes his return to the team, and he replaces Dwaine Pretorius.
