Chennai Super Kings become the champion in the third edition of IPL. In D Y Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai, they beat Mumbai Indians in the final by 22 runs. Mumbai Indians had a terrific run in IPL3 and they were favourite in final too. But Chenni Super Kings(CSK) made an upset win coming from behind. Not only that, considering the results of al the IPLs, CSK is the most consistent team. In IPL 1 also, they reached the final only to be beaten by Rajasthan Royals on the last ball of the match in a nail biting contest in 2008. In IPl2 also, they reached the semifinal stage of the tournament in South Africa.
Reasons behind their success and consistency:
* Suresh Raina is one of the key factor. He is the only player who scored more than 400 runs in each IPL. Man of the match in the final of IPL3.
* Mahendra Singh Dhoni- both as a batsman and as a captain. In IPL3, he single-handedly won at least 2 matches for his team: against KKR in Eden Garden and KEP in Dharmashala(where its impossible to forget his last over heroics- two towering sixes of Irfan Pathan!)
* Mathu Hayden who was in sublime form in IPL1 and specially in IPL2.
* Superb bowling of muralidharan in all the IPL. In the final of IPL3, he was simply briliant.
* The emergence of Rabi Chandra Ashwin as a front line bowler and Murali Vijoy as a batsman in IPL3. Both of them had surprised many by their performance and contributed in the success of CSK.
