The Chennai Super Kings Indian team members left to Cape Town today morning to play their first match on Saturday April 18, 2009. Captain of the team CSK team MS Dhoni will join them in South Africa.
And the Chennai Super Kings versus Mumbai Indians match will be the first one to kick off the season of IPL 2009. I love to see Laxmipathy Balaji coming to bowl after a long back. With Jacob Oram and Muttiah Muralidaran the bowling looks strong and there are many big wigs to give same strength to their batting.
In the MI team we have Zaheer Khan, Dilhara Fernando, Kyle Mills and Harbhajan Singh to scare the opposition and there are a few batsmen to scare with their willows; Sanath will be my favorite. The Twenty20 format of the IPL tournament instantly became popular with cricket fans across the world with loads of excitement.
