Chasing 179 to win, Shane Watson scored his second century of IPL 2018 as CSK beat SRH by 8 wickets to win their third title in Mumbai on Sunday. CSK lost Faf du Plessis early but thereafter batted with such dominance -- largely due to Watson's incredible effort -- that they crossed the line in just 18.3 overs.

As his side lifted the third IPL title on Sunday, the skipper doused the debate between age and experience and put "fitness" ahead of any other factor for success. "We talked a lot about age, but what's more important is the fitness. Rayudu, at 33, it doesn`t really matter. That's what more matters than age. If you ask most captains, they want players who move well on the field. Doesn't matter if you`re 19-20 years old. Age is just a number, but you have to be very fit," Dhoni said after the match.

Dhoni meanwhile, also credited the batting effort by his side throughout the tournament which was a major reason behind their success.
