CSK vs Kings XI, 2nd Semi-Final at Hyderabad, , Oct 02 2014 - Match Result

11.17pm And that is that from all of us. Thanks for tuning in and for sending in all your comments, as always. Good night, and I'll sign off with one final comment:

Srinivas Goud: "So two teams in the finals. One captain contributing by coming to bat as late as possible and the other by keeping pads on til the end!"

Dwayne Bravo is the man of the match "It's a very good wicket, as long as you give yourself a chance. It's not a wicket where you can play your shots right from the start. It was a great opportunity for me to get some time in the middle. Well played to Faf du Plessis and Jadeja in the end. The gameplan between me and Faf was to bat till around the 14th over, then we lost Mahi first ball, that pulled me back a bit, so I told myself I need to bat till the 18th over."

MS Dhoni: "Overall I think it was a complete game for us. I think Faf's innings was very crucial along with Bravo. Faf was rotating very well, he eased the pressure off Bravo. Close to 160-plus would have been a good score, and if somebody had said at the start of the game we would have got 180 I would have taken it. There was a bit of uneven bounce, and if you think you can play your big shot, that ball will keep low. It was a bit difficult, but they had the firepower to score the number of runs we did. Ashish and Mohit started off really well for us."

Siva: "Kings XI made 117, that is exactly how much CSK made in the last 10 overs."

Dinesh: "@Troy - Not a bad prediction. The match did get over with almost 12 balls to spare ;)"

Mohit Sharma: "I think Ashish bhai bowled really well. Wicket is on the slower side, our plan was to bowl a bit short because it wasn't coming onto the bat. We know how good he [McCullum] is on the field, he's like Spiderman."

George Bailey: "It didn't quite come on, but we saw plenty of batsmen who managed to adjust and there were definitely runs to be hard. We gave Bravo three hits, and quality batter like that, you've got to take those chances. But credit to CSK."

11.00pm And that is that. Chennai Super Kings are through to the final, where they will meet Kolkata Knight Riders, who will be without Sunil Narine. Super Kings have got there with an absolutely thumping win, and if not for some lower order resistance from Akshar, Karanveer and Anureet, Kings XI may have struggled to get to 100.

Vageesan: "Now seeing all the off spinners being reported, Ashwin is trying to turn into a leg spinner!"
