Chennai Superstars win ICL

Chennai Superstars won the inaugural edition of the rebel ICL championship beating Chandigarh Lions by 12 runs in a tough final match. As usual, Chennai Superstars played as a team with contributions from all the members. This time, its the bowling of Shabbir Ahmed which did the trick. His hat trick was the turning point of the match. The Chandigarh Lions fell at regular intervals which hampered their run chase. Chennai Superstars was the best team in the tournament and its good that the same team has won the championship and also the prize money of $1 million.

Man of the Match was given to Shabbir Ahmed for his brilliant bowling performance while the Man of the Series went to Ian Harvey. He is the tournament's highest run getter and also the leading wicket taker.
