Chennai Super Kings : news, updates and discussion thread

I dont know who was responsible for selecting their squad, but they should be "shot".

They knew that Hayden, Hussey and Oram were due to leave after a few games, so not wise selection in my opinion.

Dhoni, Morkel and some indian guy (Sharma?) should be higher up in the order - according to Ravi Shastri.

And he is right. In 20 overs - the best batsmen have to be at the top of the order, and face the maximum number of deliveries.

well
its nothing compared to the test team in bangalore

They have 11 left handed batsmen in their squad and besides Dhoni and Badrinath all their star batsmen are lefties. Is there some strategy behind this or is this a coincidence?

[Saj]

Can someone out there explain to me why Morkel is batting at number 7 in this team ?

probably because his prime time is the last 5 overs...
