Chennai Super Kings enter the final of the Champions League Twenty20 with the help of Suresh Raina's unbeaten 94 in 48-balls , followed by a clinical bowling display.They beat Royal Challengers Bangalore by 52 runs in Durban on Friday.Opting to bat, Chennai rode on an 81-run second-wicket partnership between Raina and Murali Vijay to post an imposing 174 for four after a long rain-interruption reduced the match to a 17-over-a-side affair. Murali Vijay made 41 in 32-balls. The Indian Premier League champions then came out with a disciplined bowling performance and restricted Bangalore to123 in 16.2 overs as Manish Pandey's fighting 52 off 44 balls went in vain.
