Mumbai Indians could never compete once MS Dhoni blasted 51 off 20 to take Chennai Super Kings to 187. Chennai will now play Delhi for a place in the final.

They might be inside the top-four in the points table right now after two consecutive wins but Chennai Super Kings’ batsman Mike Hussey says getting to the IPL playoffs remains a tough task and his side will have to be consistent in the remaining matches to make the cut.

Delhi Daredevils never looked in the game once Ben Hilfenhaus' 3 wickets restricted them to 114, a total easily chased down by Chennai Super Kings.

Former Australian speedster and Chennai Super Kings bowling coach Andy Bichel feels that their team is missing a "good finisher" during the matches that go down to the wire during this edition of IPL.

In a candid submission, defending champions Chennai Super Kings coach Stephen Fleming has said that his side has been "challenged for the first time" in the history of the Indian Premier League.

There are two aspects to fielding - to stop runs and to help claim wickets. While the Indians managed to do the former well in their match against Australia on Sunday, scores of lifelines were dished out as well.

It was a comedy of errors which Indian cricket captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni did not find funny at all. In the 29th over of the tri-series ODI against Australia, India appealed for a stumping against Mike Hussey off Suresh Raina's bowling which was referred to third umpire Bruce Oxenford.

Former England captain Tony Greig has labelled the decision to rest Sachin Tendulkar and Mike Hussey during Sunday's cricket tri-series match between India and Australia as a "disgrace".

He slogged it out for over 10 years in domestic cricket to get his first Test and veteran Australian batsman Mike Hussey on Sunday said youngsters who want to replace him will have to earn their spot in the team as it is not his "responsibility to pass the baton on".

The Indian cricket team is drawing criticism for what is being described as lack of intensity in training but it found unlikely support in Australian batsman Mike Hussey, who said the visitors are experienced enough to do well without long net sessions.
