Suresh Raina scored a fighting unbeaten 73 to guide defending champions Chennai Super Kings to the final of the Indian Premier League (IPL) with a six-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bangalore in the first qualifier here Tuesday.
Batting with muscle cramps, Raina struck a 50-ball 73, which was studded with four fours and six sixes, and was involved in three crucial parterships that saw Super Kings achieve the target of 176 with two balls to spare at the sparsely filled Wankhede Stadium.
