Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Friday have made it to the IPL Finals after crushing Delhi Capitals (DC) by 6 wickets in the Qualifier 2 at YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam. Chennai opening duo Faf du Plessis and Shane Watson scored a half-century each against DC to ease the run-chase on Friday.

In the post-match presentation ceremony, Man of the Match Du Plessis said that the team draws confidence from their ability to win the big games. He further added that the team has a strong lower who can pull things back in the situation where the team had a slow start. He said, “We spoke about it before the game - didn't have the best run in the last 5-6 games. We have a lot of confidence as a team to win a lot of big games - so we draw confidence from that. From the previous games, the guys were playing some great shots up front. But it wasn't the same kind of wicket. “

Talking about the strength of the team, “We also know the strength of ours is getting those partnerships - even if we go 3-4 overs without runs, we have a great lower and middle order to bring us back.”

Three-time champions CSK reached the final for the eighth time and will lock horns with their arch-rivals Mumbai on May 12 at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad.
