Chennai Super Kings vs http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Yorkshire-c867 – Champions League T20 – Toss Report
Chennai Super Kings have won the toss and they will field first in the dead-rubber clash against Yorkshire, being played at Kingsmead, Durban, October 22, 2012.
Surprisingly, it will be Suresh Raina captaining the side, despite the presence of original skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mumbai-c820 Indians, with Faf du Plessis, Albie Morkel, Ben Hilfenhaus and Doug Bollinger as their overseas players.
Contemplation would have been gone into giving some of the others players in the squad a chance as the clash holds little significance in terms of the standing, with Sydney Sixers and Highveld http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Lions-c808 already qualifying from Group B.
Yorkshire nonetheless, has brought in explosive Proteas youngster, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Dolphins-c781 as per agreement between the two sides.
He will slot in the middle-order, which means http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Andrew-Gale-c1039. Yorkshire too, is out of the competition and is still in search for a maiden win of the tournament proper.
They suffered losses against Sydney Sixers and the Lions and further took part in a washed out affair against the Mumbai Indians. This will be a last appearance for any English side in the CL T20 after ECB decided to pull out of the subsequent events as it clashes with their own domestic schedule.
They are still without their preferred seam bowlers, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ashraf-c46397, after the duo picked up hamstring strains against the Indians.
Rain had been forecasted but the weather is clear for now. Expect the pitch to do a bit in the initial phase.
Chennai Super Kings: 1 http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DE-Bollinger-c1348
Yorkshire: 1 Andrew Gale (capt), 2 Adam Lyth, 3 http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Oliver-James-Hannon-Dalby-c80190
