Chennai will be playing a resurgent Trinidad and Tobago in their final league game at the Feroze Shah Kotla stadium here tomorrow.



The Caribbean side, which finished runners up in 2009, faces their toughest test in the league so far against CSK, who have already sealed a spot in the final four.

However, the Chennai speedster wasn't overly complacent.

"We have a tough game coming up and it's important to get the job done well. We have achieved our first goal of qualifying for the semifinals and now we would look to top the group. Our aim would be to finish the group stage with a win," he said.

Chennai's strength has been their batting, comprising of the ever-reliable pair of Suresh Raina and Mike Hussey, Dwayne Bravo, S Badrinath and not to forget Dhoni, who had blasted his way to a 19-ball 63 against Sunrisers Hyderabad.

The bowlers have also complimented the efforts of their bowlers with R Ashwin, Jason Holder, Mohit Sharma, Albie Morkel and Bravo chipping in with useful spells.

The only concern for them could be the indifferent form of Ravindra Jadeja.

For Morris, he has remained an integral part of the team but in the ongoing edition, he hardly made an impression in the limited opportunities he got.

"I don't think it is (a concern). Jadeja is an outstanding player. I'd like to think that we haven't needed him so far. So as long as we don't need him, happy days," he said.
