freddie is just a good player who plays when he is in good mood oterwise he will be very abusive and be of advantage to the opposition.for example in icc t-20 wc 2007 he he excanged words with yuvi the prince and the result was his team mate s broad was being samshed for six sixes in an over and as a result england lost that match by 18 runs.so a final suggestion that don't keep freddie in your team othewise you will see nothing else except for defeat.
Get rid of the white elephant and majority of the problems are over. In this case the mangt. should be happy, trouble could be over now that the white elephant is out on its own. This is half the victory for the team for reaching the last four.

Thats correct, the white elephant took 6 crores and made 2 loses at the end the elephant says injury..there should be some rules created a player should play atleast a minimum of 7 matches to get the full pay

He doesn't get a full pay. Since he has played only 3 matches his 6.5 crore will be divided equally per match and he will be payed only for 3 matches.
Ashwin - saw the name in the first game against Mumbai Indians. It appeared that dhoni had completely forgotten this guy. Didn't bowl a single ball & dropped subsequently. Unable to understand why Badri is being sent late when Badri can play at no 3. Keen that CSK bucks up and ascertain themselves before it becomes too late !!!!
But the team selection was not good enough.. first game they have not included any spinner.. No Murali and no Balaji..Probably because of that they lost first game against Mumbai Indians. Against Delhi thay had six bowlers in the side . They should have added second spinner or another batsman. If they make proper team selection only can think of winning the IPL.They should replace Badrinath with Murali Vijay and Morkel with Ntini. The ideal team is: Parthiv Hayden Raina Oram Vijay Dhoni Coni Balaji Ntini or Fleming or Kapugedera Ashwin Muralidharan
Definitely CSK will be happy to leave freddy..he was giving so many runs in death overs..and CSK is unlucky to give away one point to KKR due to rain.CSK would have made KKR bite dust..They also lost two matches closely while chasing..they will come back with bang..If Hayden gets some(atleast little) support from middle order,then noone can stop CSK in reaching semi's..

No only player doing well in batting is Hayden ! What if he gtes out in first 4-5 overs..?? Then CSK is a flop ! Dhoni was unhappy about the way dravid batted in ODIs , Now the way Mr.MSD plays in 20-20, is far poorer than what dravid does in ODIs !
