A look at his team:

Chennai Super Kings:

The most successful team in the IPL starts as the favorite again. Mahendra Singh Dhoni'll be spoiled for choice in both batting and bowling departments.

Chennai brought in all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja and Australian pacer Ben Hilfenhaus. Suresh Raina, Subramaniam Badrinath and Murali Vijay form the batting piece.

Michael Hussey will be available after the trip to the Caribbean. Hilfenhaus joins his compatriot Doug Bollinger bowling with Ravichandran Ashwin is the leading spinner.
