Chennai Super KingsĀ is different this year. The Indian Dominant Batting order has now become Bowling lineup. They have an awesome batting lineup with capable all round players. Spin department with Ashwin, Jadeja, Badree and Raina is good enough against any team. The trouble factor ofĀ Chennai Super Kings is the inexperience Indian pacers and spot of one Indian batsman.

Chennai Super KingsĀ has decent Indian fast bowlers. If they perform well Dhoni can go with the batting powerhouse into the match:

McCullum, Smith, Raina, Dhoni, Bravo, Du Plessis, Jadeja, Ashwin, Pandey, Mohit Sharma, Nehra.

That is purely Indian bowling lineup with the dependable support from Raina and Bravo. Chennai Super Kings should go for a foreign fast bowler like Hilfenhaus. They can choose two players from McCullum, Smith and du Plessis. If they get spin tracks, they can go for Samuel Badree too.

McCullum, Smith, Raina, Dhoni, Bravo, Manhas, Jadeja, Ashwin, Hilfenhaus, Pandey, M Sharma.
