Eek..!!
What a second Innings we had by Dhoni..!!
His captain knock goes in vain but his entertainment will be remembered in history of Chennai Super Kings.
And, coming on to Man of the match,
It'll be Simon Katich, who'd be taking that award.

Welcome to Chennai. Here is the match between two electric teams, the Chennai Super Kings VS the Deccan Chargers.
So, before starting anything, we'll have to listen to our Official Singer, Enrique
That was a rocking performance by Enrique, and now moving on to the toss, here goes the result:-
CHENNAI SUPER KINGS WON THE TOSS AND ELECTED TO BOWL FIRST.

Absolute wonder as its excellent pitch. May me MS would have
thought of the dew factor, which would act a spoil sport in the second innings.

Now, lets have a look at what the first innings gave us:-
