Chennai Super Kings V/s Central Stag- Preview

In the second game of the day, Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings take on the Newzealand county, Central Stag captained by Jamie How. Dhoni's men come into this tournament as the champions of the third edition of the IPL and the crowd back here have great expectations from the team.

The performance of the Central Stag, will depend hugely on the lesser known players like Brandon Diamanti, who is a very handy allrounder from Newzealand. Another impact player and an allrounder for this side would be Doug Bracewell.

As for Chennai, captain cool Dhoni will look to play Albie Morkel, the local lad. In a pace induced pitch, Doug Bollinger could very well be the difference between these two teams with the kind of pace he generates along with impeccable line and length. Also,the big man from Australia, Mathew Hayden will be expected to lead the batting from the front.

Another thriller can be expected as the players from each of the teams haven't faced each other before and thus, strategies will be interesting to devise. Lets hope for another high scoring entertainment.
