RCB too hot for CSK

How much does a team depend on one individual can be gauged by last nights RCB vs CSK encounter. Be it Dhoni's calming influence, Haydos failure to fire @ top or Raina's outrageous shot. CSK is going from bad to worse, none would had seen this coming from a team that was the finalist in 1st & semi finalist in the 2nd edition. Is it all coz of Dhoni's injury well I don;t think so.

I agree that Dhoni is a shrewed captain with great cricketing brain but he is no super man, Chennai's problem lies in their team selection. Why is Bailey in the team & not Ntini & what is he doing batting ahead Raina, these are some questions that confuse me.

Last night CSK had the match in their grasp until Utthapa storm hit them. He never performed for the MI but the way he is batting for RCB shows the brutal power he hits his shots with. It wouldn't be wrong to call him the Haydos of RCB without the 'Mangoose' mind you. RCB showed yesterday that without Kallis firing @ top of the order they can still manage to put up a good score; I think it was good for them coz now they know they don't depend on only one man.

CSK's bowling seems to be toothless apart from the master Murali, they badly need someone to put his hand up & perform may be give Ntini a chance. Speaking of bowling Steyn's got his rhythm back & is the most consistent bowler in terms of clocking 145km/hr and above. With Kumble's great control & Vinay Kumar's awesome luck Banglore has an attack that challenges that of MI. These are the two team I put my money on for the top 2 spots this year.
