Nobody would have predicted this halfway through the innings. Chennai were struggling to score runs until Ambati Rayudu came to the crease and changed the whole momentum. Along with scoring 79 from 37 he helped Suresh Raina push his run-rate and the left-hander finished on 54 from 43. Do the Sunrisers have somebody in their camp who can play an innings like this? We will see after this short break.

Dwayne Bravo to Rashid Khan. Yorker, outside off stump moves in front driving, to long on for 1 run, fielded by Jadeja.
Bravo holds his nerve and fires in a perfect yorker. Not much Rashid Khan could do about that. Chennai win by the tightest of margins and they move to top of the table. They wouldn't have expected it to get this close after the first few overs but a fantastic couple of innings from Kane Williamson (84 from 51) and Yusuf Pathan (45 from 27) kept the Sunrisers in the game. Breathtaking stuff and we have another game just around the corner.
