Why did Chennai win? Because they have everything with the bat and discipline with the ball. Gaikwad: takes the game deep. Du Plessis: Aggressive opener, makes sure the powerplay is used. Uthappa: Aggressor. Ali: Spin basher. Rayudu: Finisher. Dhoni: Tactical genius. Jadeja: Jadeja. Bravo: Best slower-ball bowler in the world. Thakur: Weirdly economical now. Chahar: If anyone's gonna get swing, it's him. Hazlewood; No bad balls. They have everything. You go to any other team, even MI, and they have a team full of aggressors. Sure that might work well for them (evidently), but when that fails, they have no one to fall back on. CSK have everything, the most balanced side in the league. Probably in history, barring their 2012-2013 team. I had no doubt they would win this season.
Bullshit this team has only bravo who one can really call a T20 bowler. chahar with no swing and 130 km/h pace should score 50 in every match. Jadeja doesn't have any variation when there is no spin. Even csk fan would have called it as worst bowling attack on paper. csk would have ended in last two along with rajasthan. This team has punched above their weight. It's no where close to MI on paper bumrah and Boult or earlier Malinga and bumrah there is no comparison with anyone. What they did is like winning car racing with maruti 800 where other had fortuner.

Adding Uthappa's consistency and hitting ability into the side has just made CSK team a lot more dangerous since the Elminiators. Sad we have mega auction next year. Wanted to see more of this team with this lineup.
Yeah this CSK batting line-up was one of the best even better than 2018 line-up. Top 4 can destroy any team. And Jadeja is there for finish. Let's see what happens next year. Inclusion of Robin was big plus for CSK due to lack of form of Raina.
Funnily enough the mega auction actually comes at a really good time for CSK. CSK built this team for really short term success. The teams like Delhi and Mumbai are the ones actually suffering more from the mega auction as they've got a handful of young players that'll only get better. CSK only probably have 3-4 players they'd really want to retain, the other players are replaceable with comparable quality. Remember that CSK won not largely because of individual brilliance (although the openers were incredible) but because they built a team that batted until 10 and still had 6 quality bowling options, which meant there was always 1-2 players that stepped up when others didn't. CSK will probably retain Jadeja, Gaikwad and Sam Curran (Dhoni's future is in the air at the moment) and potentially Thakur, and will right to match a good few others like potentially Moeen, Chahar, Faf and Hazlewood. So the core will be similar.
CSK with all this depth , best of the bunch openers , specialist T20 opening bowlers chennai could afford to play with 10 players and a coach. He is the Napoleon Bornapate of CSK, the master strategist. While KKR had Brendon off the field , CSK had Dhoni on the field.
same thing with lahore qalandars, they just have so much alround talent with david wiese, sikandar raza, rashid khan and even shaheen afridi getting a half century the depth of the batting lineup was insane
You were one of the few who saw it coming in the early stages itself. Almost all the pundits were caught up with DC and MI and RCB, no one recognised how CSK was storming into the playoffs.
True, Chennai had a lot of match winner. They had a great mindset as well. This seems to be the first time a team has won Qualifier1 against a team to whom they had lost both league matches. Moreover, Chennai beat DC for the first time since 2019. Also after losing last 3 league matches they went on to win the cup. Could have lost the momentum, but they didn't.
Not much mention of lord Thakur in the whole video tells you how criminally underrated his contributions and performances have been for csk in this winning campaign. He deserves a whole other separate video, Jarrod. :)
Honestly, I mention him a lot, and every video people say you haven't mentioned him. I could make a video on him and people would question if I had made it.

@@AllThingsCinemaVodcast he gets way too lucky tbh, his bowling is the for the most part, hot pile of garbage. Will eventually run out of his luck somewhere down the line.
@@poo-tinthedwarfbunkerb1tch535 🤣🤣🤣 He had been doing this for the last 4 years you dumb....and he has started doing this at the international level also in recent times.... 😂😂😂😂 Don't underestimate his skills and hardwork by the name of luck 🤦🏻🤦🏻 Loads of his wickets come from cross seam deliveries both slower and faster...which is a very hard skill to master...you can yourself check how many bowlers in the world cricket consistently get that right....he also has other varieties up his sleeve.... I hardly remember any games where he hadn't delivered neither both csk and india.... Do some research before blabbering your Honest shit 🤣🤣🤣
@jarrod absolutely perfect analysis. CSK's winning begins when they sit down to strategize and build their squad. It starts there. And then they execute nearly perfectly. Can't help but love this team.
Jarrod... love the pitch of your voice and creativity in putting the stats together. Keep on doing this. I would love to see you and Andy Zaltzman doing a stats analysis video.
Csk is a huge fortress very difficult to break through. Team is incredibly balanced and wholesome . take 5 wickets and still u cant rejoice cause of the solid middle and lower order. The fact that msd has reaped the most of young and less talented bowlers is very true. Msd , raina and jadeja and dwaye too are the pillars of csk.
I don't really know what happened to Thakur in his last over. He lost his concentration.There was no reason for him to panic at that stage. He was trying too many things but he failed at executing any of it.
I think MSD gonna bat at 7or 8 this season, unless csk loses quick 4 or 5 wickets.. Yeah, he doesn't have his coordination in strikes anymore but pretty sure his is still fit and the ball can travel long if connected properly.. So his current role is more of wicketkeeper / captain and less of batsman...
@@poo-tinthedwarfbunkerb1tch535 why is he the only bowler that has luck in around 70-80 that played the Ipl and 100s in domestic and international Circuit??? shithead...🤣🤣🤣
Why did Chennai win because they had bunch of genuine match winners who doesn't even need their captain to perform at all. MSD took this team to the final but at the end this team won the trophy.
Jarrod said CSK didn't have wrist spinners .... CSK had a great attacking wrist spinner - Imran Tahir ... just that he was not needed. CSK had super bench strength in most departments ... spinners, hitters and allrounders... think about having, Tahir, Sam and Nigidi in bench and still winning. Hats of the Fleming, Dhoni and other CSK mgmt team.
Sam clearly struggled in this season with the ball in the hand and eventually had to be benched and ngidi's bowling was a problem too..so they were forced changes.
Chennai isn't really fun though. Because they are just too good. And i don't like better than all others side like the 2000s Australia. .Punjab was the most fun team this year. Lol. Almost every game was so fun from them.
the form of the players and because of leadership. for eg. shane watson was sitting on bench for rcb rayudu was not that impressive in mi. mohit sharma used to be in highest wicket taker list playing for csk even won purple cap playing for them. after leaving csk he has disappeared.
love it when people view simple things as simply as they are . Imagine it was the case from the start of civilization , life would have been that much simpler . Now most of us don't even know why we are alive
Jadeja got that mention because he used to not be an all-format, all-condition, obvious walk-in into the playing XI kind of player. His bowling has never been versatile and he has limited options, it still isn't but much improved and now he can hold even on batting friendly pitches. His batting however..., it is tough to express how improved he is now, words wouldn't do justice. Always had the talent, remember a shot on brett lee yorker, squeezed to third man from his early RR days, always felt that was a window into his talent. Anyway there could have been conditions where what he could not do mattered more than what he could, now he walks into the team even just for his batting.
Wood and Ngidi are, but Ngidi didn't play whole second half. Hazlewood not a fast bowler, more like a Boult, in that he has pace, but that's not what he is using.
What in your opinions is better t20 combination 1. 6 proper batters and 5 front line bowlers 2. 5 bat. 2 AR 4 BOWL And what do you think is the reason behind the lack of fast bowling AR in indian team, and we still dont have one going in t20 WC considering Hardik might not bowl.
First time watching a video on your channel. Super happy! Wonder why it never got recommended to me so far. Wonderful stuff, explaining why CSK almost never needs a "superstar rescue act", because they're all happy to be stars in that galaxy of not the hottest talent going around, but a galaxy that continues to shine even when some stars fade a bit. It is that element of FUN about them, that I am so thankful you mentioned, for it is what attracts people to games - they must be FUN, and Chennai are a load of fun, as they can be unpredictable in how they do things as much as they are predictable with who they will play. But they all seem to be happy to be 'playing' the game, not suffering through the process. Of course winning means a lot to us CSK fans, but I suspect we weep the least when our team loses, because there's plenty of fun to remember, and we know we will shake off our blues quickly to be yellow again!
