| Ruturaj Gaikwad | 73 | 48 | 5 | 5 | 152.08 |
|
16.2 OUT! TAKEN! Very unfortunate for Ruturaj Gaikwad, he had hit that really well! A low full toss on middle, Ruturaj Gaikwad goes down on one knee and plays the sweep shot towards deep square leg. Abhinav Manohar is stationed there and he takes an easy catch. A really good inning and a much-needed one for Ruturaj Gaikwad and Chennai. He though has fallen at the wrong time. Two new batters out there with just over 3 overs to go. 131/4

| Robin Uthappa | 3 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 30 |
|
2.2 OUT! LBW! Shami strikes. He delivers it on a length and gets it to shape back in from around off. Uthappa attempts to heave it over the leg side but misses. He is struck on the back leg, they appeal but the finger stays down. Shami wants it referred and Rashid obliges. The UltraEdge detects no bat and the Ball Tracking shows that it's hitting the stumps. Great review from Gujarat and they have got rid of the in-form Uthappa. 7/1

| Moeen Ali | 1 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 33.33 |
|
5.2 OUT! TIMBER! Moeen has played it on and Alzarri Joseph does not take long to make an impact on his debut! This is a nothing shot from Moeen Ali and his poor run continues. Length and outside off at 141.3 kph, Moeen goes hard at it as he slashes his bat at it away from the body. This takes the inside edge and then hits the stumps. Alzarri Joseph is elated. 32/2

| Ambati Rayudu | 46 | 31 | 4 | 2 | 148.38 |
|
14.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Two dots, Rayudu chases the third delivery and perishes. End of an excellent partnership. This appears to be a well-planned wicket. Alzarri Joseph bowls a couple of short deliveries outside off and serves the third one also wide. He though delivers it from wide of the crease. Ambati Rayudu throws his bat at it but it comes from the toe half and flies straight into the lap of Vijay Shankar at deep point. Rayudu departs but he has done his job here. 124/3

| Shivam Dube | 19 | 17 | 2 | 0 | 111.76 |
|
20 OUT! RUN OUT! Dube is short! A single to end the innings then but a really good last over for Chennai! A full toss on off, this is hit hard down the ground. Miller, at long off, runs to his left, slides and does well to stop it. The batters complete one and Dube goes for another. The throw is to the bowler who whips the bails off and appeals. It is taken upstairs, the replays show that Dube is short. CHENNAI END WITH 169/5! 169/5

8 OUT! TAKEN! Saha departs. He needed to try something, he needed to get a few boundaries but falls in the attempt. This wicket though could well be a blessing in disguise for Gujarat. Not the best of deliveries from Jadeja, it is short and on the body, Saha pulls but does so straight to deep square leg. Ruturaj Gaikwad takes the catch safely. Gujarat slip further. 122 needed in 72 balls. 48/4

| Shubman Gill | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
1 OUT! CAUGHT! Gill departs for a golden duck and this is a big breakthrough for Chennai. Short in length and outside off at 133.3 kph, Shubman Gill takes a step down the ground and slashes his blade through the line. He hits it aerially but without much elevation and Robin Uthappa takes an easy catch over his head at cover-point. A terrific first over from Mukesh Choudhary, he mixed his lengths superbly. 1/1

| Vijay Shankar | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
1.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! This is a perfect start for the defending champions. Vijay Shankar also falls for a duck. Maheesh Theekshana delivers it short and wide outside off, at 101.9 kph, Shankar decides to chase it and cut it through the line but gets a thick outside edge to Dhoni. He is not dropping those. The finger is up and the crowd is roaring. 2/2

| Abhinav Manohar | 12 | 12 | 2 | 0 | 100 |

3.5 OUT! TAKEN! Maheesh Theekshana has two now. Floated delivery, full and close to off, Abhinav Manohar attempts for an inside-out shot but gets too close to the line of the delivery. He ends up chipping an easy catch for Moeen Ali at covers. Gujarat are in a big spot of bother now. 154 needed off 97 balls. 16/3

12.4 OUT! CAUGHT! So the strategy pays off. Three dots to create the pressure and Rahul Tewatia tries to cut loose but loses his wicket. Clever bowling from Bravo. Dishes out his traditional slower one and lands it full around off. Rahul Tewatia aims for a big shot down the ground but gets it away from the bottom half of his blade. It towers up in the night sky and Ravindra Jadeja moves across to his left from mid off to take a simple catch. 83 needed off 44 balls! 87/5

| Rashid Khan C | 40 | 21 | 2 | 3 | 190.47 |
|
18.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Rashid is gone and it's a sigh of relief for Chennai. Change in pace, slower one and on a length around off, Rashid runs down the track for a big shot but skies it in the air off the bottom part of his bat. Moeen moves across to his left from mid on and takes the catch at mid off. End of a scintillating cameo from the Gujarat skipper. 13 needed off 7 balls. 157/6

| Alzarri Joseph | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |

19 OUT! Alzarri Joseph holes out! Doesn't matter much as David Miller will be on strike for the final over. This was a free hit for Joseph in a way, he tries his best but fails to clear the fence. Fuller and on off, Alzarri Joseph goes hard and lofts it towards long off. Chris Jordan speeds forward and takes a fine catch. 157/7
