19:36   CSK look to top table in dead rubber



Chennai Super Kings captain MS Dhoni has won the toss and elected to bowl first against Delhi Daredevils in a dead rubber in New Delhi on Friday.


With CSK comfortably qualifying for the play-offs, the Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led squad is eyeing the top spot on the points table alongside Sunrisers Hyderabad, whom they defeated comprehensively in their previous game.



Their opening combination of Ambati Rayudu and Shane Watson has worked brilliantly while chasing big totals as well as setting them. Rayudu, with 535 runs at 48.63 average, has been their standout player which was acknowledged by Dhoni after the opener smashed an unbeaten 100 against Sunrisers.

Be it opening the batting or in the middle order, Rayudu has delivered for the team.

CSK will get to fine tune their game against Daredevils, a team which has been below par yet again. Getting the legendary Ricky Ponting on board as coach and a change in captaincy in the middle of the tournament too has not helped the struggling side.

They have had the much needed break of five days and will be fresh going into today's game. They are playing for pride and would like to be on the winning side in their remaining two games.
