Durban: The fortunes of the teams are changing like the weather in South Africa. Team Chennai, after looking like surefire winners in the first couple of games, are in a bit of a mess while Team Hyderabad, despite their poor performance last season, are going all guns blazing.
A defeat and a washout has left MS Dhoni's men with no option but to go for the kill on Monday. They know if they slip-up now, things can start going downhill very soon. But there are two obstacles in the way - the Durban weather and Team Deccan Chargers.
RP Singh currently holds the Purple Cap for the most wickets (8) and his team-mate Ojha is joint second with six. Both have managed to keep their economy rates under six, which has added potency to the bowling attack.
Matthew Hayden, the tournament's leading run-scorer with 166 runs, has scored nearly 33% of the runs. At this rate, Chennai may not want to swap him for another overseas player.
Adam Gilchrist's half-century powered Deccan to a comprehensive seven-wicket win at the MA Chidambaram Stadium last year but Chennai had their revenge at Hyderabad winning by the same margin. Chennai's victory was significant because it had earned them a semi-final spot.
