CSK has not been able to successfully chase target above 175 in last 15 matches. Although margin of just 6 runs looks small, things were quite clear around 17th over for CSK. Ruturaj, Noor and to some extent Jadeja are the only significant contributors. This team looks weaker than last year and now tongues have started wagging that Dhoni should retire or play only as a impact player. But he is still the motivational and guiding force for them. It definitely adds some unseen value to them.
