Strange to see Dhoni going into every match with 6 bowlers. And still bowlers do not perform their duties. In the last 3 matches, either they got hammered black and blue or not completed their quota of 4 overs. To have a simple comparison with any other team, the other teams have four bowlers and part timers successfully operating the 20 overs. Joginder and Goni were hyped to be in the team, not standing up to the pressure.
Even in the batting lineup, its Haydos and Raina making up for the entire team. Parthiv and Badri already had umpteen chances, yet to fire once. Unless its a powerful kickstart opening stand, CSK can easily crumble any day. What happend to the likes of M.Vijay or any other batsman in the dug-out. Why can they be given a fair chance. If Dhoni is keeping wickets, it absurd to have Parthiv. It must be the young batting recruits to do the job.
Though the middle order looks hefty with the all-rounders and Mr.Captain, they hardly have time to settle to amass the runs.
Looks like unless CSK have a major overhaul in the team, They can be easy ruled out of the final four.
