Chennai Super Kings (CSK) coach Stephen Fleming was upset with the fielding effort by his players against Kings XI Punjab (KXIP). He gave animated reactions to every misfield and fumble which cost the team extra runs. 

Faf du Plessis, the highest run-getter for CSK this season so far, said he hasn't seen Fleming like this too often. But Faf added that the reaction was normal and it shows he is also a human.

"Saw that it's very unlike him and mostly the rugged beard that he is growing. Nerves more than what they used to be but it shows just he is also human. He also cares for the team to really do well. It's sometimes good to see that. We always see a calm coach and captain from Chennai. It's also said that the guys really care. I like that," Du Plessis said.

Faf (87*) and Shane Watson (83*) scored 181 runs for the first wicket against KXIP and chased down the target by 10 wickets. 

The South African cricketer talked about the team selection and lauded CSK for showing faith in the players in tough phases. "Great that Watto (Watson) got those runs as well for us, he's a big player in our side. I thought in the previous game we were good with the ball, but we didn't bat well.

"Today Watto was a big plus for us. A lot of guys haven't played cricket, so you hope that you strike form immediately. But when that doesn't happen, it does take a bit of time," du Plessis said.

"Credit to MS Dhoni and Stephen Fleming for sticking with the side. It is a Chennai way to stick with the players more than other teams might even when others feel like making changes. It comes with experience and credit to the management for sticking with the players. It isn't as easy as it looks."
