More than the IPL, the mindset of viewers is fixed! One set thins - if CSK wins it is fixing, if they lose it is fair play! Anothse set has those fanatics who give all credit to Dhoni when the team wins and it is the rest who fail!
Actually both are wrong! CSK is a balanced side with committed cricketers. If the team suffered in the earlier phase, it was mostly because of Dhoni, who batted higher up the order and played run a ball cricket! Now he is playing in typical T20 fashion in which he was supposed to play! If he gets out in the process it is ok, but at least he should try. This attitude was missing in earlier games.
They should just try to get Gayle instead of the million dollar Indian baby and the team can be invincible.

another mistake every teams do is they do not try all the player and evaluate the current form of players and select the best 11 thats is why CSK is so strong..in the league you always see 2-3 changes in every match..other teams go on with the full team initially and shatter in the end without playing their best 11..

very true. CSK has used only 17 players in this IPL and I am sure, there are going to go with the same team for the finals as well. Look at other teams, and most of them have used 22-23 players.
CSK is the most balanced side in the tournament and dont depend on individuals unlike MI, RCB or DC. DD is also a good team, but a couple of major blunders by Sehwag costed them the game. I reckon CSK-KKR game will go into the last over for a fitting finale. Fingers crossed.
