Chennai Super Kings vs Kings XI Punjab – Semi Final 2 – Hyderabad – October 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Raina ! Dhoni ! Smith ! Jaddu ! Viru ! Miller ! Maxwell ! Bailey ! The names of<\/p>\n

these giants symbolize a terrific emblem of excitement. Oh Yesss !!! Hyderabad ,<\/p>\n

Are you ready for this double header !!! Today these two monsters will be<\/p>\n

challenging each other in Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad. Mostly<\/p>\n

Chennai Super Kings will be the favourites in this venue as they hold a very<\/p>\n

good past record. But on the other hand Kings XI Punjab will be ready to thrash<\/p>\n

their exceptions. Last time when these two teams played, Sehwag scored a ton,<\/p>\n

followed by a sparkling innings from Raina (87 off 25 balls).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So far the tournament is concerned, Kings XI Punjab will have an advantage as<\/p>\n

they have won all their games and have topped the table against the mighty<\/p>\n

Hobarts, Barbados, Cobras and the Knights. Though none of the players proved<\/p>\n

to be the stand out , still they managed a four on four wins in the league stage.<\/p>\n

The Indian youngsters are proving their worth especially Akshar Patel and<\/p>\n

Karanveer Singh with the ball. The lights of Sehwag, Miller, Maxwell and Bailey<\/p>\n

are encouraging the young talents like Manan Vohra to prove their worth in the<\/p>\n

Team.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On the other hand, Dhoni\u2019s men will be all ready to showcase their talent against<\/p>\n

the team from Punjab. Batting will be their main strength so they would like to<\/p>\n

chase a particular target rather than defending it. Raina is all set to fire again<\/p>\n

against the inexperienced bowling attack. Ashwin will be the key to CSK\u2019s bowling<\/p>\n

against a batting line up which is known for its mighty hitting.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The stadium will be really electrifying. The crowd will be expecting a bang for the<\/p>\n

buck. Lets hope that the best team qualifies to the semis.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Chennai Expected XI<\/strong> : Dwayne Bravo, Brendon McCullum, Suresh Raina, Faf du Plessis,<\/p>\n

MS Dhoni (c) (wk), Dwayne Bravo, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin,<\/p>\n

Ashish Nehra, Mohit Sharma, Pawan Negi.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Punjab Expected XI<\/strong> : Virender Sehwag, Manan Vohra, Wriddhiman Saha(w), Glenn<\/p>\n

Maxwell, David Miller, George Bailey(c), Thisara Perera, Akshar Patel, Anureet<\/p>\n

Singh,Parvinder Awana, Karanveer Singh.<\/p>\n
