Chennai Super Kings is the strongest team in IPL and holds the best record among all teams. Mumbai shocked them at home, but they made up with big win against 2009 Champions, Deccan Chargers. Delhi Daredevils have also won one and lost one. With in-form Mahela and Pietersen joining the team, DD looks stronger and holds the best chance to defeat CSK.

Who Will Win Today!!
Dhoni’s captaincy in IPL is one of the best. But T20 is also about few good innings, where all plans go haywire. Earlier Delhi had only Sehwag, but with Mahela and Pietersen able to add more ammunitions and already a good bowling attack in place, DD appears all set to win against CSK.
