IPL 2020: 5 reasons why CSK look strong to win their fourth trophy
CSK is the only franchise that has marked its appearance in all the Playoffs in the year it appeared.
2. Shane Watson got the lost rhythm
Watson has given CSK some of the classiest batting displays in the last two years. His courageous act when he played with a bloodied knee in the finals of IPL 2019 will be a show to remember forever. Though CSK lost the game with just one run, he won all the heart back then. However, IPL 2020 was unfolding a different story until the last match.
Watson was not able to find a rhythm in the IPL 2020 season and was knocked out after scoring below average runs. CSK management showed a lot of trust and confidence in their senior player, and he was sent to open for CSK despite his failures. What the last match saw from the bat of Watson was no less than a miracle in any sense.
He scored a brilliant 83 off 53 and built a rock hard partnership with another great, Faf du Plessis. He got the most remarkable victory for CSK with 10 wickets and simultaneously bagged the Player of the Match award too. If he continues this splendid form in upcoming matches, Chennai will keep marching fast in the race to their fourth IPL trophy.
