New Delhi: Super knocks from Michael Hussey and skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni helped Chennai Super Kings beat Delhi Daredevils by a huge margin of 86 runs at Feroze Shah Kotla on Thursday. Crediting Hussey for giving them a good start, Dhoni said that it was important to capitalise on that.<\/p>\n
\u201c170 was not on the cards. It wasn’t that kind of a wicket, Hussey got off to a start and it was important to capitalise. We look at the number of overs to decide who bats where. We also look at the bowlers and their overs remaining. We did not think it was a fast wicket and therefore it so important to give ourselves a few deliveries. We have lost a few games but it’s good to get the perfect combination by the end,\u201d said Dhoni.\n<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, though perturbed by the margin of the defeat, Delhi skipper Mahela Jayawardene said that he would let his players think of what went wrong. \u201cWe have couple of days now and want to keep it simple. I would let the players think of what went wrong. No shouting or anger from me. I am diplomatic and I will keep it that way,\u201d said Mahela, adding that it was hard to explain about the defeat.<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone has to lift their game and create situations from where we can win matches. We have had enough chats and the boys are professional enough to realise what’s expected out of them,\u201d said the skipper.<\/p>\n
Michael Hussey, who was man-of-the-match, said, \u201cI am enjoying batting at the top. I don’t think we have a clear defined role for me. It’s about assessing the pitch quickly and along with the others, try and get going,\u201d said Hussey.<\/p>\n
