Chennai Super Kings beat Central Districts by 57 runs in a Champions League Twenty20 match at Durban last night. Subramaniam Badrinath's unbeaten 52 and Srikkanth Anirudha 42 helped Chennai Super Kings recover from a disastrous start and post a competitive 151 for four. CSK were reeling at five for two in the second over after opener Matthew Hayden and Suresh Raina were out early after the team won the toss and opted to bat first. Later Chennai Super Kings bowlers complemented the good work done by their batsmen by scuttling out Central Districts for 94 in 18.1 overs to start their campaign on a winning note.
