Little Stats about CSK. Total Matches Played 56, Won - 32, Lost 23, NR 1. Whopping Winning % of 57.14. The highest by any IPL team. In addition to this, 1 IPL title, 1 CL title, 4 Semi's appearance. The most consistent IPL team. And on a Closing note, we have the highest NRR in 2011 and we are on top of the table...... Beat This.

Apart from getting CSK a berth in the playoffs, yesterday's 'sappa' match proved vital in 2 more aspects.

CSK has won 7 out of 7 matches at home during the league stages. This feat has never been achieved before in IPL.

R Ashwin became the most economical bowler in IPL's history.

United by the colours of CSK

Brand Chennai Super Kings and brand Dhoni are set to soar once again. It’s the final week of IPL-4 and fans are really looking forward to see their local kings defend the title.

The whisper is the Kings are indeed kings at home in a season in which they have a 7-0 home record, unprecedented in the IPL.

Apparently, the Chepauk stadium’s vaastu consultant has got it bang on with all the elements so favouring the home team that visitors have to be twice as good to win here. And thanks to Kolkata Knight Riders going down in a thriller to Mumbai Indians on Sunday night, CSK are second in the table, which is a huge advantage this season.

If Dhoni’s men can’t topple the Royal Challengers Bangalore in Mumbai on Tuesday in the semi-final, they get another chance to get into the title round via the second eliminator. That match will be played at home on Friday, which is probably a second good reason why fans are betting on Dhoni’s men with increased vigour.

The cricket overdose may have taken some sheen off IPL-4 at the start, which was too close to the thrilling finale of the World Cup, but as the final nears there is bound to be renewed interest. The CSK merchandise is flying off the shelves now.

CSK’s cheerleaders may be the modest types who appear as if they have come off a late night pyjama party. They are not the glam girls of the pom-pom kind.

However, they will also be part of the big entertainment mix this weekend in the city when Chepauk will be filled to the brim with fans, many of them decked out in the bright yellow of CSK.
