Chennai Super Kings storm into the IPL Final

The punters had written them off. Everyone favoured Kings XI Punjab in the second semi-final of the IPL. But Dhoni's boys proved all wrong and beat the Kings XI Punjab for the third time in this tournament. With this fascinating 9-wicket victory, they stormed into the grand finale, which will be played in Mumbai tomorrow. The Chennai Super King will take on tournament favourite Rajasthan Royals in the final.

The victory target of 113 looked very easy for Super Kings, as they achieved it in just 14.5 overs. Raina remained unbeaten on 55, while Parthiv Patel made an unbeaten on 51. They added an unbeaten 102 for the second wicket. M Ntini was declared "Man of the Match". Hopefully, tomorrow's grand finale will have an exciting finish unlike the one-sided semi-finals.

Rajasthan are favorites to win, actually they deserve to win. They have outperformed every team during the league matches while Chennai just somehow managed to get into top four.
