Chennai got IPL 2010 Winner?

Question

What was behind this while they had tough competitor, Mumbai ahead?

Answer 1

MS Dhoni captained brilliantly during both the semi-final and the final. Chennai's problem during the season wasn't a lack of talent or ability but rather consistency. The addition of Doug Bollinger mid-season boosted their bowling stocks, but in the end, having played in a final once before, Chennai probably handled the pressure better than Mumbai.
