5 Things that need to go CSKs way for them to win the IPL 2015

4. Lack of Partnerships:

Chennai has always been known for the kind of batting it possesses. With the likes of Dhoni, Smith, Raina and Du Plesiss, one can expect a heavy scoring game whenever Chennai comes on to bat. But in this season, it is their bowlers who have outperformed the batsmen. Nehra has been very good with the new ball by picking up 22 wickets. Most of these have come with the new ball. Not to forget the Purple cap holder, Bravo, he has also bowled really well. When Nehra picks wickets with new ball, it is Bravo who finishes it off in the death overs. He has picked 24 scalps this season. The lack of partnerships with the bat has been another problem for Chennai. Looking to be aggressive, the batsmen have lost wickets in heaps. So building partnerships is the key element to be successful with the bat as a team.
