8.2 OUT! TAKEN! First one down for Chennai and it's the scalp of Ajinkya Rahane who was itching to strike the spinners. Flighted-delivery on the middle and the length is fuller, Ajinkya Rahane reaches to it and gets down on his knee before sweeping it up in the air. He gets it off the toe-end of the bat and doesn't get the desired distance and power on it. The ball sails over mid-wicket and Rilee Rossouw from the deep mid-wicket region runs forward and settles underneath it by reverse-cupping it. Chennai lose their first one. 64/1

| Ruturaj Gaikwad C | 62 | 48 | 5 | 2 | 129.16 |

17.5 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Excellent delivery to send the Chennai skipper into the hut! Cannons a pin-point yorker right at the base of the off-stump, it tails in a bit too. Ruturaj Gaikwad shuffles across the leg stump line to squeeze it out to the off side but he ends up giving himself too much room and fails to connect. The ball bamboozles the stumps in the blink of an eye. But an excellent captain's knock from Gaikwad. He departs on a valiant 62. 145/5

8.3 OUT! LBW! A huge appeal for LBW and up goes the finger! But Shivam Dube has straightaway reviewed it. Brar continues to come from around the wicket and drops it on the leg stump line, and gets it to turn into the batter as well on a fuller length. Dube gets down on his knee to slog it over the leg side but he plays over the wrong line and the ball pings his pad. UltraEdge shows no bat is involved and the Ball Tracker confirms the ball is pitching inside the stump line and shows three reds as it is hitting the middle stump. A huge, huge blow for Chennai as Shivam Dube goes for a golden duck this time without troubling the scorers. 65/2

9.5 OUT! LBW! A confident appeal for LBW and again, the Umpire raises his finger! Ravindra Jadeja first walks away but then Ruturaj Gaikwad convinces him to challenge the decision! Rahul Chahar flights this on off and turns it sharply into the southpaw on a fuller length, Ravindra Jadeja gets a stride forward to push it back to the bowler but he plays all over the line of the ball as he didn't anticipate it to turn. UltraEdge shows no bat involved. Ball Tracker confirms that the ball is hitting the leg stump after pitching outside off. Chennai has burnt both the reviews and is in deep, deep trouble here with Jadeja too walking back to the shed. Three quick wickets for Punjab and the spinners have wreaked havoc. 70/3

15.3 OUT! TAKEN! A four and a wicket, and Rizvi who had a struggling stay at the middle walks back! Pace on, short in length again, around off, Sameer Rizvi arches back a bit and goes for an uppercut, but plays it too close to the body, aerially towards the deep third but ends up hitting straight to Harshal Patel at deep third who runs to his left and slides to complete the catch. He holds the pose for a few seconds and Chennai go further down the drain. 107/4

18.4 OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! What a sensational penultimate over this is turning out for Punjab! A gutsy call from Curran to bring Chahar and he does the trick. Flighted through the air and pitches around off on a fuller length. It sharply turns back into the southpaw after pitching. Moeen Ali gets low to sweep it over the leg side but he's beaten by the slower one and the turn, and plays it over the line of the ball. The ball sneaks through the inside edge and breaks into the stumps. A good cameo from Moeen comes to an end. 147/6

| MS Dhoni Wk | 14 | 11 | 1 | 1 | 127.27 |

20 OUT! RUN OUT! And Dhoni gets out for the first time in this edition! A high full toss across off, MS Dhoni swings hard and loses the bottom hand from the bat. He slices it towards short third where Harshal Patel fails to catch it over his head and parries it behind him. He runs and chases the ball and throws it back to the keeper's end. MS Dhoni sprints to get back home by dragging his bat to complete the second. Jitesh Sharma picks up the throw from the deep and flashes the bails in a jiffy. The side-on replay shows that MS Dhoni is just short of his crease when the stumps are broken. Chennai finish at 162/7. 162/7

3.1 OUT! TAKEN! And there's the first wicket! Hits the deck hard on the middle and leg stump line, skids a bit as well off the deck and comes to the bat a bit more quickly. Prabhsimran Singh stays leg side of the ball and tries to hit it over the leg side but ends up mistiming the ball off the thickish outside edge, up in the air, just over the mid off region. Ruturaj Gaikwad settles underneath the ball and takes a comfortable catch. First wicket for Richard Gleeson in the Indian T20 League. 19/1

9.2 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Shivam Dube breaks through for Chennai! The move to bring Dube into the attack has worked and this is a timely breakthrough for the hosts. Goes into the wicket and bowls it on off, Jonny Bairstow backs away and shapes up to play the upper cut over the keeper. Only manages to get an outside edge that travels at head height to MS Dhoni who takes it to his right. 83/2

| Rilee Rossouw | 43 | 23 | 5 | 2 | 186.95 |

12 OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! Finally, some respite for Chennai and Shardul Thakur. Rilee Rossouw is absolutely animated with himself. Shardul hustles from over the wicket and bowls a knee-length full toss with a cross seam, closer to the off stump, it tails back in as well, Rilee Rossouw swings across and gets a thickish inside edge, onto the pads and it goes on to dismantle the furniture. However, a brilliant inning from Rilee Rossouw as he departs on 43. 113/3
