Sorry. @I6MTW we can discuss this later in the sports sub-forum. Let us leave this thread to IPL fans. 

Okay! Let's just agree all 3 of them are perhaps the greatest of all time. The Trinity of men's tennis. We might never see a tennis player of their caliber after they retire. ATP might even become like the WTA with random winners here and there.

Fed was a late bloomer unlike the other 2. Had all started as 18 year olds at the same time Fed's confidence would have been shattered beyond repair in the 1st 5-6 odd years. 

Fed accumulated many majors in 2003-07 period and built an aura by the time Nole knocked on the door. Against Nadal, huge match up and mental issue cos teenager Nadal gave him hell including on HC. I don't buy the age excuse. 

Not an excuse, it is a fact of life. The young replaces the old. In an athletic sport like Tennis 5-6 years difference is huge. Speed/reflexes/skills/ power all wane down with age. Credit to Federer he somehow still managed to win 3 slams after he turned 35.

Just a tongue in cheek remark turned into such a fierce debate of Fed and Nadal.  i just wanted to say that the greatest T20 team CSK is bunny of MI, like the greatest Tennis player Fed is bunny of Nadal.  or the greatest cricketer SRT bunny of Anderson.

CSK is not the greatest t20 team. It's :mi:

CSK also has 100% playoffs record in IPL.

LOL. back to sqaure one. 

100% playoffs records means more failure to win the actual thing. Nobody remembers or appreciates how many times SA or England have reached semis or finals. Winning the cup is the real greatness of the team.

but if you take in all of these records, it makes CSK the most successful IPL team.  3 IPL titles, 2 CL titles, 100% play off records.  100% record does not show the failure.  It shows how good they have been.

3 ipl titles and 2 cl titles have been achieved by MI too without having 100% playoff records.

 

In terms of actual results that matters Mumbai Indians are equal.

 

3/7 finals is choking compared to 3/4 finals by Mumbai Indians.

Not saying CSK isn't a consistent team but if CSK is greatest t20 team then so should be MI too with equal trophy counts. Trophy count matters.
