CSK extended their dominance even in South Africa

The 2009 edition of the IPL was shifted to South Africa due to the general elections in India. But not much changed from the inaugural edition as the fans witnessed the Chennai Super Kings extendi their dominance even in the Rainbow Nation.

The Chennai based side finished with an NRR of +0.951 in the tournament while sitting at the number 2 position on the points table. MS Dhoni led his side to some amazing wins as CSK dominated all opposition teams with great authority. They had a lead of 0.6 in comparison to the table-toppers Delhi Daredevils (now Delhi Capitals).

Unfortunately for them though, CSK lost against the Anil-Kumble lead Royal Challengers Bangalore in the semi-finals.

In the tournament, Chennai Super Kings scored a total of 2086 runs in 255.3 overs whereas only 1855 runs were scored against them in 257.1 overs.
