| Chennai pulled off this victory from an improbable position but they had their captain to thank for setting a competitive total. They were in desperate need of acceleration and found it hard initially, with Dhoni scoring at a run a ball and Hussey striking only one boundary in his first 24 deliveries. With five overs to go the pair turned it on: Hussey struck B Akhil for consecutive sixes to take 14 runs off the 16th over and then he scored two boundaries off Kallis after which Dhoni launched the ball over long-off to take 16 runs off the 17th.
Dale Steyn had bowled three fast and economical overs but his fourth was a disaster. Dhoni clubbed two fours down the ground, edged one to the third-man boundary, and powerfully hit a four and a six towards midwicket. He took 24 off the over and then drove and pulled Zaheer Khan for 14 off the first four balls of the final over before holing out to deep cover. Chennai scored 76 runs off the last five. |

Dravid, who had demoted himself below Virat Kohli, the India Under-19 captain, fell for his second consecutive golden duck as he was struck on the pad by Gony while moving across to flick. It was perhaps a bit too high but one could sense Dravid's lack of confidence. The final blow came when Albie Morkel uprooted Kohli's leg stump for 12. Bangalore were left with 30 runs to get off 16 balls with only the tailenders left. The task proved to be too much and Dravid once again was left to ponder over what could have been. |

| HE’S BACK
Away For Two Years, Lakshmipathy Balaji Makes A Grand Return With The First IPL Hat-Trick. Pace Has Made Way For Deception But He’s As Lethal As Ever, Finds Dwaipayan Datta IF EVER there was a theme for a dream, it was this. After being lost in the wilderness for over two years now, Lakshmipathy Balaji has finally announced his re-entry into the big stage. The smile is lost, but it has been replaced by a sense of determination that’s writ large on his face. Even as he avoids the media after a matchwinning performance against the marauding Team Mohali at the Chepauk on Saturday, there’s no way you can point a finger at him for being arrogant. He just feels he hasn’t done enough yet and you don’t lose your head when he politely refuses an interview. All you can do is to admire the man’s grit for the way he has risen from the ashes, fighting back from a stress fracture in the back that had all but finished his career. True, Balaji is no longer the bowler he was four years back when he became a smash hit in Pakistan. The pace is considerably lesser, the run-up is shortened, and he doesn’t charge in as the No 1 bowler of even a Chennai side which is struggling to find a spearhead. Yet, coming in at the ‘middle-overs’ of a T-20 game, Balaji still has the ability to dismiss batsmen of the quality of Shaun Marsh and Ramnaresh Sarwan in one over with his clever change of pace to turn the game on it’s head. The last over hat-trick may just be the icing on the cake, but Balaji deserves every bit of the ‘prize’ that makes him the story of the first half of the Indian Premier League. His Team Chennai coach Kepler Wessels doffs his hat for the way the medium-pacer has fought his way back. “He responds very well to suggestions and is never shy of giving his heart out at the nets. A lot of work has gone into his action and it’s paying dividends,’’ Wessels told TOI on Sunday morning. The coach said that he was just waiting for him to get absolutely fit before playing him in the tournament. “I thought he did a commendable job in the Delhi game itself...And the Saturday show was quite outstanding as well,’’ he added. Wessels, in fact, believes Balaji “can work his way back into the Indian One-day side as well’’. “He comes in from a shorter run-up, but he has those subtle variations of pace which can be very effective in the shorter version of the game,’’ the South African suggested. One of Balaji’s former India teammates, who was at the receiving end of the Tamil Nadu pacer’s Saturday show, Yuvraj Singh, too hailed the pacer. “It doesn’t matter if he wasn’t at his fastest best. He was brilliant with his deceptive slower ball. He was quite clearly, the best bowler of the day,’’ Yuvraj said. That tells quite a lot as bowlers like Sree Santh, Irfan Pathan, James Hopes and Albie Morkel were playing on either side. “It is very difficult to make a comeback after two years and I wish him all the luck for the future,’’ the Mohali skipper’s words were heartfelt. Yuvi is right. Balaji, after all that he has gone through, deserves his moment under the sun. TNN |

| it was quite sad to read in papers that it took lot of time even to diagonise the injury of balaji. WV Raman says that in other countries especially Australia, they could have identified the injury sustained by balaji in a matter of days and cured the injury in reasonably short time. The unfortunate part is that balaji quite righly has some grievances about this and i believe, that is precisely for this reason, he refused to talk to the media worried that he may open out. When such a potential bowler who had done so well against good opposition and who is a good prosepct, is not taken care of, what the hell is this so called BCCI is for.
It must be said that lot of efforts has gone into bringing balaji back to what he is now and whoever was responsible for it apart from the never say die balaji deserve all the credit. |

He made his debut last Ranji season. Got a century on debut (if I am not wrong it was with Karnataka !!). I don't know if the other TN opener (M.Vijay) who was even more prolific has been picked by CSK. I think they are persisting with Vidyut because of the bowling option he provides (but are they using him at all). He was very useful in the inter-State T20 that happened last year - which TN won by the way. |

He adds: “Even after the three losses we suffered, Dhoni was great. He’s not moody and doesn’t dwell on losses. In fact, he told us then that in India most people expect us to perform well every time we go out on to the field and are never fully satisfied. So we shouldn’t be worried if we are criticized at times. That shows his maturity.” |

| Prasad to be CSK bowling coach
TIMES NEWS NETWORK Chennai: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have decided to hire Venkatesh Prasad as the bowling coach for the forthcoming IPL season. The team didn’t have a bowling coach last season and Prasad’s inputs and South African experience will be of great help for the likes of Lakshmipathy Balaji and Manpreet Gony, who will be playing there for the first time. Informing the hiring, a CSK official said: “He will be with the team after he returns from New Zealand. I’m sure the bowlers will benefit from his presence.” Prasad was with the Bangalore Royal Challengers team last season, but according to the CSK management they had worked out a deal with the India pace bowling coach sometime back. “He was free after last season and we signed him three months back,” a CSK official said, Meanwhile, New Zealand’s Stephen Fleming will be a playercum-coach. “He will play if required. We’re sure that the former Kiwi captain’s inputs, both as a player and as a coach will be of much help,” the official added. Prasad has firsthand experience of playing in South Africa. He toured the country during India’s series against the Proteas in 1996-97. Fleming is likely to join the squad on April 1 in Chennai, when the players assemble to start the first phase of their training. The Indian players, though, will only join the squad in South Africa, where the team will train for a week before the real action starts. “Players will come in as and when they are available,” the official added. |

| Fleming scanning new horizons
Monday, Apr 06 2009 Chennai: For Stephen Fleming, it will be a journey into unknown, much like it was for the Indian Premier League Twenty20 tournament last year. Fleming is on his first major assignment as a coach after having taken charge of the Chennai Super Kings team for the 2009 IPL in South Africa. “From my experience last year, I would say that we have a very strong set of core players and that will be the key. “Managing the foreign signings will be a challenge no doubt. We have a few senior players and so there is a wealth of experience at the top. Also, the other players too are experienced. I am looking forward to my role,” he said at the “Meet and Greet the Players” function where the Chennai Super Kings squad was presented to the Media, here today. He admitted that there would be pressure on him, but was confident that with the array of talent at his disposal, the team would come out on top. In the inaugural IPL last year, Fleming played in 10 matches while missing out on the semi-finals and final as he had to fly back home due to personal reasons. He scored 165 runs at a strike rate of 118 with a best of 45. He opined that the presence of two South African stars – fast bowler Makhaya Ntini and all-rounder Albie Morkel – would be a plus point for the Super Kings in view of their intimate knowledge of local conditions. Having said that, Fleming was quick to point out that the team had a very strong and talented set of core players who played a major role in taking the side to the final last year. Under the circumstances, the team was not greatly affected by the loss of a few key foreign players in view of international commitments. When asked about his views on skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Fleming said the Super Kings were indeed lucky to have one of the best captains in world cricket. “Dhoni is a very strong captain who leads from the front. But I think, his role as a player (wicketkeeping and batting) has not received due recognition. I am looking forward to working with him and may be help him expand his knowledge regarding strategies.” In a clear endorsement of the IPL, Fleming said: “It has certainly added more depth and strength to Indian cricket, besides giving it a new dimension.” |

| Cheer up fans! Though live action of Indian Premier League (IPL-2) has moved to South Africa, you can still be part of the hungama, though not in the cricket stadia. Team franchisees are betting heavily on the internet, radio, mobile network, social media websites and cheerleaders to connect with fans in India.
Darshan M, vice president of commercial operations, Deccan Chargers, owned by the Deccan Chronicle Group, said, “We will be using the social networking sites and digital media. Players will chat live on mobile/WAP/internet with fans in India so that they feel connected to the event. We are also planning to fly some fans to South Africa.’’ Besides the technology-driven connect, the India Cements-owned Chennai Super Kings also plans to screen live matches in about six open grounds in Chennai to create a stadium-like atmosphere. Chennai Super Kings already has a fan club with over 3,000 active members. Rakesh Singh, vice president - marketing of India Cements said, “We are arranging activities with them to sustain interest as they are not short-term fans.’’ |

| Haydos in good touch; Super Kings settle down
Durban: Matthew Hayden, the former Australian opener, looked to be in good touch as the Chennai Super Kings got down to serious training and net session at the Kingsmead facility here. The Super Kings, who arrived here on Thursday to train in local conditions for the 2009 Indian Premier League Twenty20 tournament commencing on April 18, had a three-hour workout in batches on Friday. The young Tamil Nadu players in the team hung on to every word that Hayden, also known as Haydos, spoke as the left-handed opener spoke about the need to focus on the ball and other aspects of batting. Meanwhile, the Super Kings fast bowlers, Manpreet Gony and Sudeep Tyagi in particular, enjoyed bowling on pitches that afforded steep bounce. Coach Stephen Fleming, the former New Zealand captain, also convened a team meeting where he outlined plans and emphasized the need to play smart cricket, according to VB Chandrasekar, director for cricketing operations. He said Muttiah Muralitharan, the world’s leading Test wicket taker, came down with a bout of fever on arrival here yesterday, but has since recovered. The Super Kings are scheduled to play the tournament’s first match at Cape Town against Mumbai Indians on April 18. |

| Oram joins Super Kings in Durban
Durban: Jacob Oram, the New Zealand all-rounder, reunited with the Chennai Super Kings team here last night thus setting to rest speculations over his availability following injury in the recent weeks. The Super Kings are presently in training here since their arrival last week well before the start of the 2009 Indian Premier League Twenty20 tournament on April 18. The 30-year old Kiwi missed the recent three-Test series against India owing to an Achilles heel injury. However, he returned to the field in a domestic tournament for Central Districts team only to pull out after feeling pain in the heel. The recurrence of injury led to speculation over his participation in the IPL that was originally scheduled to start on April 8. However, with the IPL since shifted to South Africa to commence on April 18, it provided valuable time for Oram to recover fully. “The next two to three months are massive for me. I want to be part of both of those. Watching the guys play the Tests against India has been bloody tough on me. It's very hard, emotional at times. Believe me I want to get back more than anyone realizes,” he had said at the time. Oram is now looking forward to the IPL that would also put him in a better competitive trim for the World T20 Cup to be held in England in June. The affable Kiwi is expected to play a key role for the Chennai Super Kings. His awesome height, all of 1.98 metres, will provide his deliveries a natural steep lift on the bouncy South African track, and of course, his power-hitting needs no special emphasis. |

| Flintoff fit and ready for IPL
Durban: Andrew Flintoff, the new signing for Chennai Super Kings, believes that he has regained his fitness and was hoping for an injury-free summer that includes his maiden appearance in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 tournament beginning in South Africa on April 18. In the recent years, Flintoff, the England all-rounder has been plagued by injuries and has figured in only eight of the 27 Tests his country have played since the 2006-07 Ashes series. In an interview with BBC Radio Five Live, Flintoff said: “I spent several weeks working very hard at my fitness when I came back from the West Indies and, hopefully, that will stand me in good stead come the summer.” Flintoff is expected to join the Super Kings team, currently training in South Africa, later this week and the Chennai outfit is counting on a strong performance from the world’s premier all-rounder. There were some concerns over his availability for the IPL, but Flintoff gave ample evidence of his fitness levels in the ODI series against the West Indies when he delivered a hat-trick in the last match. In the past two seasons, Flintoff suffered a recurring ankle problem that led to a third operation in June 2007 and subsequently, a hit injury curtailed his appearance for England in the just-concluded tour of the West Indies, missing two Tests, two ODIs and a T20 game. With Andrew Strauss, the current England captain, not in the team list for the T20 World Cup in England in June, Flintoff is widely tipped to take charge of the side. “It would be something I'd have to think about and see if I could be the best man for the job. I don't think many people would turn it down. "I've not played a lot of Twenty20 cricket and I'd like to play more. I'm not saying the money is not very appealing, but there's a lot more to it,” was his cautious response to the speculation over his possible captaincy. In the course of the interview, he admitted that the tours of India and the West Indies have been tough on him as well as the players. “It's been a tough winter all round. Going to India before Christmas with everything that happened and coming home and going back, was testing for everyone. “There have been lots of things going on. These are long tours. We are proud to play for England but people have got things at home as well and families who you desperately miss when you're away. “When you come to the end of a trip, of course people are looking forward to getting home and seeing people you haven't seen for a long time,” said Flintoff in an obvious reference to the off-on Test series of India in the wake of the Mumbai terrorist incidents. England cut short their ODI series with two more matches remaining following the 26/11 incidents, flew home and then returned to India to play two Tests. |

| Bookies tip Dhoni’s team to go all the way
Bookmakers have bad news for Shah Rukh Khan and Preity Zinta. Ahead of IPL II, they are putting money on Chennai Super Kings followed by the Delhi Daredevils and Mumbai Indians with Deccan Chargers bringing up the rear. (Sridhar )
Rates opened in Kolkata on Monday and even in the time of economic slowdown, business of Rs 25,000 crore is expected. That’s Rs 1000 crore more than last year. The bookies are looking at nearly Rs 450 crore for each match of the competition which begins in South Africa this weekend. Having burnt their fingers last year with Bangalore Royal Challengers, the bookies are a lot more careful this time. “As it was a completely new concept with players from different countries in one team, it was very difficult to predict who would perform well,” a Mumbai bookie explained. The Bangalore team is fourth on the list of favourites this year. The bookies are quoting MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings at Rs 4.3 for a rupee. This means, if the team wins, a punter would get Rs 5.3. From being second-last on the favourites’ list last year, Virender Sehwag’s Delhi Daredevils move up to second at Rs 4.7. Shane Warne may talk of unleashing a ‘tornado’ or a ‘wild thing’ called Kamran Khan but losing Saturday’s friendly to Cape Cobras have hurt Rajasthan Royals’ ratings. They are being quoted at Rs 8. “We had planned to open Rajasthan Royals’ rate at Rs 5.5 bringing them to third position but their poor performance in the practice match, that too against a local team, forced us to rethink,” the bookie said. On Sourav Ganguly’s Knight Riders, the rate is Rs 8.25 which is 25 paisa less than the odds on Kings XI Punjab where Yuvraj Singh is king. Some distance behind are Deccan Chargers who will fetch Rs 11 for every rupee invested. Quite a comedown that from being second on the list last year. |

THEN & NOW HOW THE TEAMS HAVE CHANGED BE IT IN TERMS OF ACQUIRING NEW PLAYERS OR COACHES. TOI FINDS OUT TEAM CHENNAI FRED AND BETTER There’s a quiet confidence in the way Team Chennai go about their job. Not much has changed in their line-up, Freddie Flintoff has been added, and they look the same potent unit that they were last season. The biggest strength of the team is presence of allrounders Flintoff, Jacob Oram and Albie Morkel. True, Flintoff wont be available for more than five games, but that doesn’t bother anybody in the line-up. Oram will know fully well that if he has to book his ticket for the T20 World Cup for New Zealand, he has to perform well in the IPL. Morkel, on the other hand, has been in superb form and the South African conditions will only help him to excel. Matthew Hayden’s international retirement, too, has been a big boon for the team, as they can now avail the services of the burly Aussie at the top of the order right through the tournament. Hayden will lead a powerful batting line-up, which boasts of stars like Suresh Raina and MS Dhoni. Dhoni’s inspirational leadership, along with the tactical acumen of coach-cum-player Stephen Fleming, can only make things better. They acquired the services of Tasmanian batsman George Bailey and Sri Lankan medium-pacer Thilan Tushara, who will provide the perfect back-up to a set team, which has its spin department led by a wily Muttiah Muralitharan. Michael Hussey won’t be available till the semifinals, but given the strength of the unit, that’s hardly a cause of concern.

| Chennai Super Kings used its money wisely. They have put themselves in a very good position. Their team composition is very good and they have players from every country; if someone leaves, the place is filled immediately.
"CSK is a winning team with a winning captain and a lot of money that can be put behind the team," said Ashok Malik, a noted journalist. "T Thushara and George Bailey are players that can make a difference in the team," Harsha said. CSK's Head of Marketing, Rakesh Singh spoke on the show about how franchisee has helped the teams grow. "Franchisee's model is developing as we go along because internationally one depends on merchandising and gate collections, but in India, it is a combination of merchandising, gate collections and a lot of sponsorships, advertisement and promotions.CSK is both cricket and business. It has been a part of the India Cements Company's passion." said R Singh "Dhoni is an icon player without being an icon player, he initially gave the team a pan-Indian identity in addition to a Chennai identity because Dhoni is a rockstar," said Malik. |

| MS Dhoni wins the toss, and decides to bat first. Dhoni is hoping it doesn't rain, "although some is predicted for later on in the day". Dhoni looks to use the "not very good lights". Murali, Balaji and Albie Morkel, the guy who prompted the decision to bat first, are in, in place of Oram, Thushara and Ashwin. |

Why? I think he is too handy for CSK. May be he is not in good form. But I don't think no one can fill his shoes in CSK. He is the genuine bowling allrounder that the world has witnessed after a long time. His heroics in Ashes test series was a proof of his unearthed talent. I still have the feel that he has yet to play his true potential. On his day, he is a real matchwinner than anyone at the moment in the world of cricket. |

| Storm of a different kind!
VB Chandrasekar | 05 May 2009 We were concerned about two storms – a thundershower forecast for 5 pm and the other, of course, was Gilly. Ultimately, as it turned out, it was the Chennai Super Kings who stirred things up nicely with another thumping performance! The weather forecast was for thunder showers around 5pm. Coach Flemo was a little worried if this could have an adverse effect, but Dhoni, who opted to bat first on winning the toss, was willing to back his decision despite the 30% rain threat, to set a target. The Buffalo Park in East London is a small ground, so the big hitters were expected to come to party. The starts have been excellent for the Super Kings and it was time for the middle order to provide sustenance to the run rate and deliver the punch at the death. Haydos loves the orange cap and has no intention to be relieved of it. Vijay executed backfoot drives that were authentic cricketing shots. Playing with Haydos is indeed a moment to cherish and learn for the young man. Dhoni created confusion in the Deccan Chargers ranks by popping up at the fall of Haydos. He controlled the middle overs before stepping on the gas. Raina played the role of the aggressor, leaving very little doubt about our final target. The runs were on the board and the bowlers looked more at ease during the innings break. To see Gilly fall first ball to Albie was just the start we wanted. I almost fell from my chair when Gibbs was cleaned up by Tyagi. The scoreboard read 1 for 3 when VVS tucked Albie into Raina at square-leg. What followed was a Caribbean onslaught from Smith. He was, to our horror, neither being caught inside the field not outside of it. The brilliant start from our opening bowlers was wasted by the poor catching display. The introduction of spin from both ends changed the game in a dramatic fashion. Jakati and Murali admirably shouldered the burden, giving us instant joy. More fielding errors followed. The missed run out opportunity by Jakati easily went down as the most comical of blunders witnessed. The asking rate was climbing leaving the Chargers little option but to slog and in the margin of victory boosted our NRR considerably. The team is obviously soaking in the fine string of wins, but will not overlook the shoddy fielding display. The two main concerns for us will be to field well and steadily improve to peak at the right time. The injury scare is something that will have the support team on high alert too. Dhoni took a painful blow on the forefinger in trying a cheeky shot against RP. It has a slight swelling and should subside to recover in time for our clash with Kings XI at Super sport Park in Pretoria on Thursday (May 7). Albie has had an ankle niggle all through the tournament. During dinner, I had a dig at him about losing his shoes while bowling against Daredevils. He responded saying it was the second occasion and the first was against the Aussies during the ODI series at home. Overall, it was a memorable win and its importance lies in the fact that we outplayed the Deccan Chargers to be the table leaders. We leave East London on a high with our performances graph on a distinct upward curve. |

| Cricket does not, cannot, work along those lines. The field dominates, days are spent in sporting conflict. Holding the team together, responding to a sudden attack, setback or opportunity, requires a hands-on approach. Captaincy by committee does not work. A hundred decisions are taken every hour. It's more like skippering a racing yacht, always watching for changes in the elements, always knowing that hesitation is fatal, judgment paramount, always looking far ahead and yet also remaining in the moment.
As they walk onto the field, captains examine the shape of the ground and the size of the boundaries, as these affect the positioning of fieldsmen. Taunton's straight boundaries were short, so long leg and third man tended to be placed a few yards finer. Captains will also consider the wind. That affects the choice of ends for each bowler. Sometimes they all want to operate at the same end, whereupon the leader must persuade one fast bowler that he will be able to swing the ball more against the breeze, or that a strong man is needed to work into the gale, or that he will get a crack with the typhoon at his back at the next opportunity. Captains are part-time salesmen. And all before a ball has been bowled. Thereafter it is a question of using eyes and ears and remaining aggressive. It's a waste of time placing short leg and silly point for batsmen playing in front of their pads. It's worth watching bowlers walk back to their marks. Some plod perennially, others are heavy-footed only when strength is waning. Captains determine the length of spells, the style of bowling, always seeking the right balance between attack and defence. Everyone has his own style. Some stick to their plans come what may. When it works their calmness is praised; when things go wrong their lack of imagination is condemned. Others are more instinctive, regard the field not as a blackboard but a battleground. They must be able to carry their players with them, for intuition can take a man down some blind alleys. Only the mightiest of leaders can swiftly separate their brilliant ideas from their flights of fancy. But time is of the essence. The un-seized moment does not come back. |

| Not the least significant contribution made by 20-over cricket has been to confirm that captains remain influential in even this abbreviated version of the game. It might have been supposed that these activities require little thought. Not a bit of it. As much as anything, the IPL has been a tale about the rise and fall of captains. Indeed it has re-emphasised their importance. Thanks be given.
The IPL has reminded all and sundry that captaincy does not begin with the first ball or end at stumps. Sometimes that is the easy part. Against the odds, Shane Warne and MS Dhoni took their teams to the first final and now both have put their hats in the ring for the second instalment. |
| Quote: |
| Rajasthan and Chennai have prospered because they have clear lines of authority, consistent plans, and place trust in their appointed leader. Warne was not merely asked to captain his side, he was given carte blanche. Historically and temperamentally it was a smart move. Accordingly he was able to build Rajasthan by his own lights, hand-picking his assistants, sending his old pal Darren Berry around India to look under stones and bushes in search of unsung and cheap talent, inviting Jeremy Snape to give his quiet guidance, and allowing others he respected to join him in the endeavour. He chose his players, shaped his side and formulated policy. Too many cooks can spoil the broth because everyone wants to put in his own preferred spice.
Typically Warne's team has lived on its wits. He is in charge; the players look towards him for leadership, advice and strategy. It is a simple operation, and it works. Ego has been buried. By no means is it the only way for captaincy to work - only the most arrogant leaders think theirs is a blueprint. But Warne has been honest and his players know where they stand. For all his foibles, he has been Australia's lost leader. Dhoni has been himself. His approach lies midway between Warne and Kumble. Like the Aussie, he shows faith in his players, is able to think and act on his feet, and does not panic or concern himself with appearances. Like the mighty Indian he is a warrior, unyielding, prepared to hurl himself into the fray. Plain and simple, Dhoni is able to focus his entire character on winning the contest, a task he goes about in a notably unemotional way. While not exactly a sphinx, he does not give much away, does not react when things go awry, does not glare at blundering fieldsmen or reel at the sight of a long-hop. Instead he seems able immediately to think about the next ball. He is a constant and remarkable man, able to allocate his time and energies so that the field does not drain him, for upon departing he can switch straight into another world. Captaincy will not break him. Dhoni has exceptional clarity of thought. Knowing its leader, his team responds with equal determination, and afterwards relaxation. In their contrasting ways Warne and Dhoni continue to cajole the best from their players. With a rare mixture of cunning, loyalty, bluff, intelligence and grit, they have carried their players along with them and formed a winning habit. By doing so they reinforce the old truisms about the supremacy of cricket captains. The good ones can make even 20-over tournaments bend to their wills. So far, none of the others has quite reached their standard. They remain the benchmark. But then, they were chosen and empowered by owners aware of the importance of having the right man at the helm. Temporarily, anyhow, a good captain can sharpen the fangs of any team. |

It could not have got any closer. Phew! There were all kinds of storms raging at the SuperSport Park Centurion with Mother Nature putting on a memorable show of thunder showers. Almost matching the elements were the batsmen of both teams. In the end though, we scrambled through, but only just, by 12 runs. Since the bus ride to the Centurion was anticipated to take a longer time, the team was advised to leave an hour earlier. We reached the ground with the match between Rajasthan Royals and the Royal Challengers only half complete. The entire team watched the game in the temporary enclosure. It was indeed a different experience and a great opportunity to gather their individual thoughts and assessments on a live game. Although it was a long wait for the players, they never let that worry them. At an earlier meeting in the team hotel, it was decided Bailey and Gony would replace the indisposed Oram and Vijay. The loss of an all-rounder necessitated the tough call to balance the bowling department at the cost of Vijay who had shown good touch in the previous match. The idea to bat first and put pressure on the opposition is a more favourable option and Dhoni had no doubts on that. Even after losing Badri to the first ball of our innings, Haydos and Raina continued their good form to post a 50 partnership. Even as the stand flourished, the swirling clouds over the ground were indicating that rain would shorten the game. It came down rather heavily to stop play and subsequently reduced the match to an 18-over contest. The delay ruined our momentum and the loss of two overs put us at a disadvantage. During the rain-induced break, we kept ourselves busy watching nature at its best. The sunlight bathed the ground while the rain was falling incessantly. A magnificent rainbow adorned the eastern skies. Soon, multiple rainbows were witnessed while the ground staff busied themselves to get play underway. The rainbow was not the only spectacle to be. The quality of batting that followed easily matched the sensational work of nature in this Rainbow Nation. The moment Dhoni walked in to replace Raina. The flair with which he destroyed the Kings XI attack was more like the carefree batsman we have known him to be. Haydos decided after the rain delay to let Dhoni strike. When it was Haydos’ turn to launch himself, the hurricane hitting left us all stunned. The Kings XI bowlers wilted under the aggressive thumping. The target score of 186 was adjusted by one precious run using the DL method. It was ludicrous and annoyed us no end. We sat peacefully through the first four overs from Albie and Tyagi with the asking rate climbing and the Kings XI batsmen coming under increasing pressure. However, three consecutive sixes from Katich brought about a distinct shift in the game. The pounding that followed left us wondering if we were staring at another defeat. Dropped by Gony off the hapless Murali, Yuvi’s counter attack made mockery of all our attempts. It was getting close as Yuvi and Mahela brought Kings XI to within striking distance of the target. At this juncture, Dhoni’s faith in Raina seemed misplaced - an ordinary decision by a skipper in an awkward situation. How magnificently Raina responded to the responsibility that was thrust on his shoulders! It was indeed the difference in the end. Raina’s two overs at the death costing just eight runs, halted the marauders in their tracks. Balaji, who had earlier accounted for the dangerous Katich, bowled with discipline and purpose at the death. It was not an easy day in office for the bowlers. It almost seemed like IPL 2009 at Pretoria was played on an Indian pitch! For the viewing public, they got their money’s worth. With the big guns blazing from both teams, the rain was only a minor aberration to them. Dhoni seemed visibly upset with our poor catching, but was quick to recover and display the poker face with looking pleased with the win. Yet again, serious questions had to be raised on our proficiency or lack of it on the field. Fortunately for us, unlike in the earlier matches that we had lost, our fielding lapses did not cost us a win. |

| What Hayden brings to the crease is a sense of physical intimidation that paralyzes the opposition and force grown men into improbable errors [Kumar Sangakarra, normally safe as a house to spin, missed the easiest of stumpings when Hayden was just 32]. There are players as tall as he, and as hefty – but somehow, at the batting crease, Hayden swells, like Hanuman did in the stories my grandmother told me.
CSK started off with one eye on the bowling and the other on the clouds; clearly, pre-match prep had included a glance at the forecast and the consequent determination to get off the blocks in a rush. And in Hayden and Raina, CSK had the perfect pairing for the job – the two left handers, both soul-crushingly destructive when on song, are numbers one and two in the IPL run-aggregate charts and have powered much of the team’s successes this season. There is no point recounting the statistics of their partnership – if you didn’t watch it, no amount of figure crunching can bring it to life for you. What remains in memory are vignettes: A freeze frame of Raina at the end of a straight loft for six, base firm, waist and shoulders torqued into the swing, bat behind his shoulder blades in a pose reminiscent of Tiger Woods off the tee. An image of Hayden attempting a reverse sweep and failing, then a dab to third man and failing; shrugging his shoulders and, next ball, strolling forward into a strike that nearly put a spectator, several rows back in the stands, in coma. Hayden again, misreading Sreesanth’s line, moving a long way to off, finding the ball coming in at him and swatting it one-handed yards over the fine leg boundary, finishing up twirling the bat like a bandmaster’s baton. Piyush Chawla, bowling as well as he knew how and looking like a spanked child as deliveries disappeared in defiance of the norms of batsmanship…
And then there was MS Dhoni. For the second time in two games, the CSK and India captain promoted himself up the order. He’s done it before after taking over the national captaincy, but always to anchor, to consolidate, to shore one end up. Here, it was to decimate – and over the space of 27 balls, he took us back in time to those halcyon days when his arrival at the crease was a signal to witness legally sanctioned murder. Again, the stats are irrelevant; one image remains: in a VRV Singh over that went 2-4-6-2-6-4, in the midst of a manic spell that produced 80 runs in a five-over period, the third ball was outside off and climbing. Many batsmen – Sehwag, Gambhir, Jayasuriya, Hayden, Gilchrist… -- would have smashed that over point for six, but only Dhoni could have managed to do that with what seemed to be a 360 degree rotation of the wrists, impossible though that sounds.
A question, for the learned among you: Duckworth-Lewis is supposed to be about adjusting scores to reflect the overs lost and the resources in hand with the batting team. So when CSK goes along in excess of 10 rpo from the start, loses two overs, and has all of seven wickets in hand, what brand of Chinese rip-off calculator produces a target revised upwards by one run?
At the halfway stage, you thought it was CSK’s game for sure – but Stephen Fleming, during the break, made a pertinent comment: There is nothing, he said, more dangerous than a side forced to bat just one way. An ask of that magnitude can freeze the mind – or it can free it up wonderfully, since there are no calculations to make, no tactics to consider, no calibrations to fine-tune. There is only one plan left: start hitting, and keep hitting until either the target is breached, or you can’t hit no more. KXIP put on an exhibition. When Karan Goel came out at the fall of the first wicket, though, and pottered around for 20 deliveries attempting a task too big for his talents, you felt that for the second time Yuvraj Singh had missed a bet by not coming out himself, and wondered whether it was a sign of diminished confidence. At the end of the game, I still found myself thinking of that period as the phase KXIP slipped up. Though the effortlessly fluid Simon Katich powered a 51-run partnership in just six overs, he was ill-served by Goel’s inability, at the other end, to either turn it on or turn the strike over. Goel managed 14 in 20 balls; another six deliveries and KXIP would have cantered to the finish. Once Yuvraj and Mahela teamed up, it was show time. At his best, Yuvraj delights by the sheer improbability of his strokes – like a deceptive short arm flick off Morkel that propelled the ball to the midwicket fence; the monster hit later in the same over that with seeming lack of effort comfortably outdistanced anything Hayden had hit earlier… Such shots tease the imagination, because commonsense and the grammar of batting tell you they cannot be hit – and when he hits them, there is an air of inevitability to the shots; you find yourself nodding along and going, oh but of course yes, a whippy little flick, a kid could do it. And then there is Mahela who, when on song, is inheritor to the mantle of Sri Lankan stylists of the order of Duleep Mendis, Roy Dias and Aravinda D’Silva. Where he differs from Yuvraj is that you focus not on the individual shots that made up the innings, but on the smooth-flowing poetry of the whole. Even so, one shot stands out as perhaps the best of the game: the 5th ball of the 13th over, Mahela shimmied down the pitch with the fluidity of a figure skater, and lofted no less than Murali, inside out, over extra cover for a six so stunning, you forgot to applaud. With Mahela and Yuvraj showboating and Gony [and once, even Murali] dropping catches like his hands were sponsored by Amul Butter, KXIP was a lock, with 144/3 after a 19-run 14th over, needing 43 off 24 and looking good to finish inside the distance. And then Dhoni produced a masterstroke. He had two overs left of Sudeep Tyagi, whose first two had produced 10 runs and a wicket; 2 overs of Jakati who, despite coming under Katich’s cosh (14 runs off 7 balls, including a four and a six), had gotten a wicket for 20. Jakati for the 15th, Tyagi for the 16th and 18th, with either the spinner or Balaji for the 17th, is what any captain would do. Dhoni tossed it to Suresh Raina. What made the CSK captain think that in a game where Murali had gone for 37 in his four, a bloke who only occasionally bowls in the nets would be the best choice, we’ll never know. But Raina it was – and the gamble paid off with 4 runs in the over, and just another six in the 17th. Mahela, who had taken Murali for 13 off 6, managed just 3 runs from four balls faced; Yuvraj, who had taken six runs off three Jakati deliveries and 17 off 11 from Murali, managed just three runs in six Raina deliveries faced. At the other end, it was Balaji who, slowing his run up almost to a walk, produced so many variations of the ‘slower ball’ that it seemed, at one point, the only thing he hadn’t tried was the one that stood stock still and stuck its tongue out at the batsman.
It is decisions like those that keep the Dhoni mystique burnished. One part of you wants the rationale explained; the other tells you that like the best tricks of master magicians, such moments are perhaps best left wrapped in mystery. |

| The Durban correction!
The day started with a pleasant surprise. My eyes popped out to see Mike Hussey, who looked fresh despite a long and obviously tiring trip. He confessed to have spent a month chasing his three little kids and was grateful for the break! Chennai Super Kings aew blessed to have him as a backup going into the last phase of the IPL. Little did I realize that the day held more surprises for us. With Rajasthan failing to make the cut, the pressure on Kings XI was more pronounced. On the contrary, Super Kings were very relaxed, lapping up the coach’s exhortations for a more determined effort on the field. We watched the closing moments of the encounter of the earlier game as Kolkata Knight Riders destroyed the thin hopes the Royals had of making it to the last four stage. For the Knight Riders, their campaign, in spite of finishing last, ended on a much brighter note. Toss in our favour saw Super Kings caving in from a strong position at the strategy break, leaving the tail silenced by a professional bowling display from Kings XI. Dhoni was enjoying lighter moments as he saw the task of defending the low total as a challenge. One would assume that the dressing room atmosphere was gloomy at the uncharacteristic showing with the bat. However, my silent belief was that anything was possible. Makhaya was by my side for the second half of the match. It’s not easy to be sidelined without getting a look in. He showed no trace of this disappointment as he went about his task of lifting the mood in the dressing room. On the flight to Durban, he was at the receiving end from his team mates as they kept pelting him with bottles and anything else that they could lay their hands on. He was an epitome of sporting spirit, allowing the others to laugh at his expense. The Kings XI were chasing just 117 runs and their batting line up was expected to breeze through without a hitch. It was at this stage that I told Makhaya it was going to be a one-sided game. He grinned and said if we believe it’s possible, then we could also win. At the strategy break, Makhaya was the first one out on the field pumping up the positives. Murali openly admitted that Makhaya’s encouragement went a long way in pulling the contest in our favour and that earlier, he was skeptical about the outcome. The pressure applied by Dhoni with his three spinners pinning the opposition down was a lesson worth repeating in low scoring games. The ploy to disturb the composure of a dangerous Yuvi saw him perish in an ungainly fashion to a seemingly innocuous Raina. Murali then achieved the important breakthrough and young Ashwin dramatically changed the game with the asking rate ascending in geometric proportions. George Bailey, whose lyrics form the now famous team song, had the team screaming with joy on a well earned victory. It was a fantastic team effort and one of the best matches I have had the privilege to witness. An UNBELEIVABLE finish to get ourselves back on track with a win despite injury worries to Haydos and Albie. We had lost our three previous games here in Durban and now we bid goodbye to this city in a far happier frame of mind than before |

This IPL has shown the worst of Dhoni.. Why on earth did he go for proven non-performers like PP, Goni, Oram. Never tried Ntini even once in pucca SA conditions, complained about his teams fielding in public while conveniently overlooking his missed catches n stumpings, firing the bowlers etc., Last IPL had given me some hope in Dhoni that he can work out things with an OK team, but this IPL is giving me scares, Indian team a vechu enna pannuvano. Last time around he gave oppurtunity to lesser known ppl like palani amarnath and they worked out to an extent. This time Badrinath was perpetually under-utilized, Aswin was warming the dugout. Albie morkel never set the stage on fire with his bowling yet he completed atleast 3 overs in most of the matches. Dhoni's preferences have been weird to say the least |

| Anoop,
In reply to your post in the other thread: Saaraamsam of your replies and my comments: 1. Agreement on Oram. Taking in Hussey or Bailey instead - dont know why this is such a difficult or bad choice. 2. Morkel - debatable but yeah he has been getting the wickets. I see him more as a bowler 3. About his post match speech. Yes, he mentioned about the batting but if you see the speech, it will be a mere matter of record. The stress was clearly on the bowling 4. Ntini not getting a chance is inexplicable. In the end, to end up being forced to go for Gony whose mistake was it? 5. One point you have mentioned is interesting. Badri's position. To me, (without scanning stats) it looks like random "gut" decisions, the middle batting order. Wicket vizhundha Badri - if i missed that pattern i stand corrected. Yet, this has been a clear pattern with him after captaincy (he did play a crucial innings or two in this very IPL, the dhoni of old). Merely playing at a run a ball or less in the pretext of "lets target a reasonable score rather than aiming high and ending up with a low total". IMO he has made it an overkill of that policy 6. To me, its so much about whether he is great/good/better than others as it is about a golden chance for CSK going waste. Jeichirukkalaam illa... Yerkanave sila pala thadava sonna madhiri, i dont buy the throw the baby with the bathwater type arguments - from either side. Those obstinate decisions, and some post match speeches and their justifications - nothing more, nothing less. |
Jeichurukkalaam illa not only the Semis but also the trophy.... Jeikkavendiya Matchu and I do accept that his batting cost us dearly.... What we can do is point out his mistakes in this hub but still back him to bring the trophy to Tamizhaga Mannu next time around.... I hope he will have more time to sit back and think where he went wrong and come up with a better show....

I think that is true, irrespective of what numbers say. What concerns me is players like Vijay and Shreevats Goswami slogging from ball #1. I was horrified to see Goswami's innings for RCB.

If so, it was stupid.kaNNa mUdikittu sutharavan opener-A vENumnA, adhaan Uthappan irukkAnE.
Vijay's innings was similarly inexplicable. It should be Hayden's role to intimidate and go after shots; Vijay, if at all he plays, should look to score run-a-ball and the odd boundary to score around 30-35 at a strike rate of 110-120. I guess maybe Vijay wanted to prove that he is worthy of selection for T20 WC. I rather think he should limit his T20 ambitions and angle for a long-term role within CSK team as a solid rather than spectacular opener. Making the India T20 team is really a long shot for him, and he shouldnt miss out on the CSK role aiming for the former. Know your limitations, bro.
I thought I saw him, when he first came to limelight in a ODI series in Australia, playing straight lofts for Six. As Ajay mentioned, a six outside Chepar(u)k square off the wicket. Since Raina has also caught this mid-wicket affliction, I wonder if it is part of CSK strategy, training and team goals
Besides, what options does he have? Thissera? Kemp? Ganapathy? Jokeinder?

Basically, yesterday's bowling effort was misleading. A comfortable score, thanks to MSD, shielded them from being plastered. I still doubt if CSK can avoid conceding 160+ bowling first. In 3 years, they have found it difficult to do this - with Albie Morkel, who is probably 4th change bowler for south africa, opening the bowling, what can you expect? Murali is not a force anymore. And the batting is heavily dependent on MSD/Hayden/Raina for match winning innings. Albie/Oram/Kemp etc can play cameos and Badri/Vijay can rebuild to some extent. Hayden seems to be average this season - if you notice, the excessive focus on frills like Mongoose bat(think of the amount Hayden would have got from manufacturers to hype this bat) seem to indicate that Hayden's focus this year is on "eriyara veetula pudingandhu laabam". He is not getting younger, and possibly, he is not as confident as before and an auction is coming up next year, where franchisees will be mindful that in 3 years, he will 43-44. So, realistically, he has probably thrown int he towel and playing a benefit season. I expect a poor season for hayden. So, in effect, it is MSD/Raina for batting. Now MSD is out. So, only Raina. But he has been made captain where he has very little captaincy experience even at lower levels. Might screw his batting. In effect, bowling = crap under pressure already batting= 0 in the absence of MSD. |

prachnai adhu illa Ajay. horses for courses. The question is 1) Can someone else do the decent job that Murali does. Answer: Ashwin is doing well, and Jakati has shwon he can, and left arm spinners are doing well this IPL 2)If Murali sits out, what options, we get - either Oram/Bailey/Thissara in the middle order - an additional mediumpace/big hitting fire power in the middle, even though that cannot match Dhoni. Going by that, what you are losing is offset by what you are gaining. |

I'm sure IPL3 will also be evasive in no small measure due to Albie Morkel (or the philosophy of the CSK team think-tank, menejment etc) Even this year, the most bewildering baffling mysterious thing is why is Albie Morkel where he is today. Thank god Oram is injured. I'm sure Mike Hussey and Bollinger (idhaane spelling?) are going to sit out even when they come back. We are going to stick on with the same sh!tty 11. Albie is going to play 22 balls in each innings, all attempted mid-wicket hoicks no matter where the ball is bowled, maintain a strike rate of 100+ (with a few not-outs) and retain his place in the team and also as a big hitter
As for TN players, they are all almost-theres. Badri is a big liability going by present form. Vijay is the foreplay man - shows promise but never makes it big time. Aswin at least bowling nalla podraapla. MS dhaan team-e, Hayden fire-aana ok, but will he be good enough like last year? |

Your point on albie morkel captures the problem with csk squad selection. Morkel, oram, perrera, thushara, even flintoff - how many half-all-rounders do you need? Other extreme is delhi which is suffering from a balance problem due to the lack of even a half-all-rounder. They need vettori badly. If they can stay afloat until he comes, they'll swim well after that. Albie morkel's assured starting place characterises the indian "one secatcular hit/innings can compensate for 10 "dev"uda "dev"uda performances" I'd think vbc controls selection related matters - I guess I know where to place the blame |

its a FACT that chennai youngsters playing for CSK have been pathetic. Balaji has bowled well in patches and to reciprocate MS has shown enough confidence in him. Badri has played the anchor role in matches where we have lost some quick wickets. apart from that we havent seen anything great from any domestic players in csk team. OTOH no one criticised sathish playing for MI nor DK for DD... chumma edhukeduthaalum local players in csk va karumbu kaatukkulla kondu poi keduthutaanganu solradhu chinnapullathanamaa irukku... yes there have been zonal politics in selection going on for many many years in indian cricket now and its been also slightly noticed in IPL right from season 1 in terms of getting their favorites into the team and so on.. but atleast w.r.to gettin a chance in the playing 11, in IPL so far its been performance above everything else which has mattered. ppl playing well have retained their places, period! sadly CSK dont even have 5-6 players doing that. I can think of only Hayden/Raina/MS/Murali/Badri/Balaji (yeah 50% tamilians - maybe we can be proud of that )| From: Bala (Karthik) on Wed Mar 24 3:02:42 2010. |

| CSK should play Ntni.
It is easy to blame the batting yesterday yet if they could have chased 150+ easily yesterday. Problem was we gave away too many runs. Why? Our pacers are decent but dont have the x factor. We have Ntni sitting there with E/R of 6.91 second only to Murali in CSK. Hard decisions have to be taken and Baileys sacrificed for Ntnis. |

It looks like he doesnt even know other kinda shots. Even for a cover drive, he tilts himself to cover and hits a straight drive.. which in turns become cover drive |

he was the main reason for the loss sterday along with perera (Yeah and the usual leaking bowlers). Parthiv did well in one match, almost got us a win (pannalaingaradhu vera vishayam). badri shud have got out some 2-3 overs back, atleast csk wud have got 10-15 runs more - btw our bowlers would have given that as well maybe we have tried tyagi/jogi/balaji/perera in al the lost matches for bowling at the death... still what more do u want? they have all been failures, ok so we try palani/ganapathy/murugan/siva/rama and krishna in the remaining league matches... kemp did well in one match and he aint available. ntini for all we know might again leak runs when selected, maybe bollinger if selected might be good

| No tyagi was screwed by gilly and co once in opening overs.That's it.he is in india fringes and any day better than joginder who shouldn't even compare with ganapathy.tyagi is beinf judged on one over to deccqan(was it deccan) Somehow this joginder scandal is being pushed under the carpet as though he is a great prospect. He is the same as amarnath and should have been discarded like the latter but continues to get chances. Why? |
