The Super kings sent the King's XI packing by winning by 9 wickets in the second semi-final of the Indian Premier League at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday.On a pitch offering generous bounce to the fast bowlers, Chennai's pace attack of Ntini, Gony and Albie Morkel bowled in the perfect channel, denying the Punjab batsmen any room to execute strokes through the off side. Bowling and fielding with exceptional intensity and focus, Chennai Super Kings restricted Kings XI Punjab to just 112 in the second semi-final in Mumbai and gave themselves an excellent chance to fight for the title. Chasing 113 runs to enter the final, Parthiv Patel and Suresh Raina guide Chennai to victory against Kings XI Punjab in the 15th over.
The Chennai Super Kings will meet the Rajasthan Royals, the tournament favourites, in the finals tomorrow in Mumbai at 2000Hrs (IST).
