On Sunday, Chennai had qualified for the knockout stage by thrashing SunRisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets.
So far, CSK skipper MS Dhoni has been the star performer of the team.
Talking about Dhoni, CSK coach Stephen Fleming has said Dhoni’s intent this season has been the turnaround for him.
“Probably mentally just intent, he practised really hard before the tournament,” Fleming said on Sunday.
“He practised a lot of time before the tournament, got in before any of us had arrived. He hit a lot of balls, hit a huge volume of balls, he concentrated on his intent,” Fleming added.
