6.2 OUT! CAUGHT! 'Catch,' is the call from the keeper and Pathum Nissanka obliges. Axar Patel drags the length short and angles the ball into middle and leg. Ruturaj Gaikwad goes deep in the crease and tries to hoick it over deep mid-wicket, but gets a bit cramped up for space and ends up skying it high and wide of deep mid-wicket. Nissanka runs across to his left and pouches it well. End of another sluggish knock from the Chennai skipper and the 62-run opening stand is broken. 62/1

5.2 OUT! TAKEN! Khaleel will be the most relieved man out in the park. Full length on middle, bowled with a scrambled seam and it angles in a bit as well. Nissanka picks out the shot early and looks to clear mid on, but he cannot get the timing right and ends up chipping it tamely to mid on. Dewald Brevis gets down low and takes a fine catch. Delhi Capitals are 61/2, chasing 213 runs. 61/2

| KL Rahul Wk | 18 | 10 | 2 | 1 | 180 |

5 OUT! TAKEN! Khaleel Ahmed strikes a crucial blow for CSK. Change of angle works for him. He comes around the wicket and digs it into the surface, on middle, angling in a bit. KL Rahul stays back and looks to heave it away but the ball just gets big on him here. It hits him high on the bat and lobs up towards mid-wicket, where Jamie Overton backtracks a bit and takes a good catch. Rahul is disappointed with himself, but has to walk back. DC are 61/1. 61/1

| Sameer Rizvi | 6 | 9 | 1 | 0 | 66.66 |
|
8 OUT! HIGH UP AND GONE! Overton with a massive wicket for his side. The short ball plan works in favor of the tall Englishman here. He digs in another bumper, a rib-tickler to call it best, on leg. Sameer Rizvi tries to use the pace and bounce to heave it over square leg, but gets the shot from the inner half and it spoons miles up in the night sky. Dewald Brevis keeps his eyes locked in at deep square leg and takes a good catch. He is not dropping those at all. The decibel levels go up again at Chepauk. The Capitals are crumbling under pressure. They are 76/4, needing 137 more runs from 72 balls. 76/4

| Axar Patel C | 1 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 50 |

6.1 OUT! CAUGHT SPECTACULARLY! Sarfaraz Khan is off for a sprint across Chepauk. Kid you not, that was travelling at the rate of knots. Singh hits the deck really hard, and keeps it outside the off pole. Axar Patel hangs back in the crease and tries to square cut it past backward point, but cannot keep it along the ground. Hits it flat to the right of Sarfaraz Khan at the mentioned position. Khan reacts quickly and throws himself to the right with his hands stretched forward. Takes a fine, fine catch to dismiss the DC captain. Gurjapneet Singh starts off with a wicket and Delhi Capitals are 66/3, suddenly spiraling down. 66/3

| David Miller | 17 | 14 | 1 | 1 | 121.42 |
|
12.2 OUT! BOWLED 'EM! A peach of a delivery from Jamie Overton. He lands this on a hard length from over the wicket, at 145.2 kph. This one lands on middle and leg and just jags back in a bit. David Miller stays in his crease and tries to play at it but it looks like he loses sight of the ball for a moment and also gets undone as the ball skids through. It beats the inside edge and hits the top of the leg stump. Miller has a couple of looks at the surface but he has to walk back here. DC lose half their side now, needing 92 more runs off 46 balls. 121/5

| Tristan Stubbs | 60 | 38 | 4 | 3 | 157.89 |
|
18.3 OUT! MISCUED AND GONE! That should be the game for CSK. Wicket number 4 for Overton. He is fired up and understandably so. Cannoned in on a fuller length, around off. Tristan Stubbs tries to muscle it over mid off, but gets the ball sliced instead. Airs it toward mid off where Noor Ahmad backtracks a bit and takes a fine catch with a reverse cup in front of his face. A fighting knock from Stubbs comes to an end. Delhi Capitals are 183/8, needing 30 more runs from 9 balls. 183/8

14.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Noor Ahmad has the last laugh, and this is also his first wicket of the season. He floats up a wrong 'un, full and keeps it outside off, turning it away a bit. Ashutosh Sharma once again moves to the leg side to repeat the dose but this time has to reach out for it a bit and due to the away spin, he ends up slicing it much squarer. It flies high in the air towards sweeper cover, where Anshul Kamboj runs in from the ropes and takes a good catch. DC are 149/6 now. 149/6

| Auqib Nabi | 4 | 2 | 1 | 0 | 200 |

15.4 OUT! MISTIMED AND GONE! Hosein did make it difficult for himself, but importantly, he held onto that one. Express pace and full on off stump. Nabi clears the front leg and swings hard, but only manages a top edge. That balloons high into the night sky above extra cover. Hosein is stationed inside the ring and calls for it early, with Ruturaj sauntering over from mid off as well. The ball swerves under the lights and Hosein takes it over his head, falling backwards in the process. The Super Kings are firmly ahead now as Overton has his third wicket of the night. Delhi Capitals are 154/7, needing 59 more from 26 balls. 154/7

| Kuldeep Yadav | 4 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 57.14 |

19.1 OUT! TAKEN! Kuldeep bites the dust as well. Full in length and on the middle stump. Kuldeep steps out and tries to go inside out over extra cover but mishits it completely in the air. Brevis, moving swiftly to his right from cover, pouches it safely. CSK are just 1 wicket away from winning. 185/9

| Lungi Ngidi | 3 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 60 |

20 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! And after a long wait, this gets the Super Kings on-board in this year's IPL. Anshul Kamboj bowls it at 132.8 kph, full and angling away, wide outside off. Ngidi reaches out and throws his hands at it, but only manages a thick outside edge that flies straight into the hands of Gurjapneet who is positioned at a straightish short third. Chepauk is up on its feet and the Men in Yellow are delighted to bits. CSK BEAT DC BY 23 RUNS! 189/10
