#2 World Class All-Rounders
While their fast bowling stocks may have lacked potency at different stages of the tournament, CSK successfully overcame that with the help of two of the best all-rounders in white ball cricket - Dwayne Bravo and Shane Watson. Bravo has been one of the perennial superstars for CSK over the years with his immaculate bowling and power-hitting down the order and although he has not been at his best with the ball recently, he has made some vital contributions with the bat, including a 68-ball-30 against MI to lead his team to an improbable win.
Shane Watson may not have had a great IPL last year, but this year, he again gave us a glimpse of his supreme talent. Watson has accumulated 438 runs in 14 matches, which includes a swashbuckling hundred (against RR), and a pristine 57 against SRH. The duo of Watson and Bravo have been pivotal to the CSK set-up this year, and are expected to play a crucial role against SRH in the finals.
