Player Of The Match
  • 19.6

    Dwayne Bravo to Shakib Al Hasan. Yorker, middle stump on the front foot driving, to mid on for 2 runs, fielded by Chahar.

    A masterful partnership of 123 between Shikhar Dhawan and Kane Williamson saw Sunrisers through a tricky opening period before unleashing violently to surge towards a healthy total. There was plenty of swing on offer for the CSK seamers, Deepak Chahar able to get through his full allocation conceding just 16 runs. The men in yellow weren't able to capitalise on the helpful conditions, and with some heavy clouds above the ground we should see an interesting chase if the weather holds.

  • 19.3

    FOUR! Dwayne Bravo to Shakib Al Hasan. Length ball, down leg side moves in front flick, well timed in the air under control past deep backward square leg for 4 runs. Expertly whipped into the gap, Shakib shuffled across his stumps in order to open up that area behind square.

    SIX! Shardul Thakur to Deepak Hooda. Half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control over long off for 6 runs. Wow, that's a biggie.

  • 18.3

    OUT! Caught. Shardul Thakur to Manish Pandey. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to mid off, by Willey. Easily gobbled up by Willey charging in from long off, Pandey can't get going today. He was looking to clear the ropes but the cross-seam delivery takes a thick outside edge and balloons high into the air. CSK pulling things back in Pune.

  • 17.2

    APPEAL! OUT changed by umpire to NOT OUT after REFERRAL. Dwayne Bravo to Deepak Hooda. Half volley, middle stump on the front foot flick, hit pad to for no runs, appeal made for L.B.W. Up goes the finger, Hooda shuffles across the stumps and misses a straight one. He's going to review although it looked plumb to me. Well, what do I know - it's missing leg stump. So Hooda survives, excellent review.

  • 17.2

  • 16.1

    OUT! Caught. Shardul Thakur to Kane Williamson. Half volley, wide outside off stump on the front foot driving, thick edge in the air uncontrolled to third man, by Bravo. What a grab that is, bravo Bravo. The champion is pulling CSK back into this contest as they remove the two danger men either side of the timeout. Williamson chased this wide one looking to slash over backward point, but the West Indian was able to pluck it from the air while on the move.

  • End of Over 16
    Over 16. 14 runs. Bowler: Shakib Al Hasan. Chennai Super Kings: 157/2 (rr 9.81)

    OUT! Caught. Dwayne Bravo to Shikhar Dhawan. Off cutter length ball, off stump moves in front Scoop, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to short fine leg, by Singh. Simple catch for Bhajji, Bravo the champion charges off to celebrate. He knows that's a vital scalp for the men in yellow as we approach the death overs. Dhawan wanted to clear short fine leg but wasn't given any pace to work with, so it just loops up to the man. With that we'll take the second timeout of the innings.

  • 18.6

    Bhuvneshwar Kumar to MS Dhoni. Length ball, off stump on the front foot working, to fine leg for 1 run.

    At the halfway stage it seemed as though Sunrisers Hyderabad had set a really challenging total for CSK, but Ambati Rayudu made a mockery of it. Along with Shane Watson (57), he set about destroying the bowling attack to all parts of the ground. Seven fours and seven sixes saw Rayudu race to a memorable century and help CSK all but seal a playoff spot.

  • 18.5

    Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Ambati Rayudu. Length ball, outside off stump moves in front working, to deep mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Khan. There it is, a century for Ambati Rayudu. What a season he is having, he has bossed this runchase today.

    Shakib Al Hasan to MS Dhoni. Stock length ball, off stump down the track driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on for 1 run, dropped catch by Pandey. Spilled at long on, that could be the game gone for Sunrisers. Pandey is normally so reliable but he might have had thoughts in the back of his mind of where the boundary rope was. The simple chance goes down, Dhoni survives.
