| Prithvi Shaw | 17 | 17 | 1 | 1 | 100 |
|
4.1 OUT! Gone! Prithvi Shaw fails to make the most of the opportunity handed to him in the last over. The short ball does the trick. It is a good one though as it is angled into the body of the batsman. Shaw is cramped for room but still goes for the pull. He only manages to top edge it to long on, who is stationed there for such a shot. Shardul takes a safe catch and Chennai celebrate their first breakthrough. 24/1

| Shreyas Iyer C | 19 | 22 | 3 | 0 | 86.36 |
|
10.3 OUT! Bowled 'em! Poor shot selection from Iyer. End of a scratchy innings from the Delhi skipper. Good length ball, angling in from outside off, Iyer backs away and exposes all his stumps. He looks to play the square cut but misses it and the ball smashes into the wickets. He doesn't even look back and starts walking towards the dugout dejected. A timely breakthrough for Chennai. 78/2

| Rishabh Pant Wk | 38 | 26 | 3 | 2 | 146.15 |
|
11 OUT! Miles up in the air... and Bravo is the man under it. He is the one man you want under such a high ball and he takes it without making any mistake! Slower ball on off, angling away from the stumps, Pant goes for the big shot across the line. He gets a thick top edge to third man. Bravo near the rope runs in quickly towards his left and pouches it safely. A double-wicket over comes to an end by Ngidi. Chennai right on top here. 81/3

| Glenn Maxwell | 5 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 71.42 |
|
13.5 OUT! Bingo, Jadeja uproots the leg stump with a pacy delivery. He was expecting an innovative stroke from Maxwell and decides to dart it on the stumps. The Big Show goes for the reverse sweep but fails to put bat to ball. It smashes into the leg stump and Chennai have another wicket. Delhi now in deep trouble here and they are in desperate need of a partnership. 94/4

| Abhishek Sharma | 2 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 50 |
|
14.4 OUT! And there goes another wicket and the hosts have lost half their side. Chennai are bossing this game big time. It is the short ball from Shardul Thakur that does the trick again. It gets big on Sharma who looks to pull that off the back foot. He ends up getting a top edge to mid-wicket. Harbhajan is the fielder under it and he is not the one to miss out on those. Abhishek Sharma, who promised a lot with his exclusive strokes in the last game, fails to get going this time. 97/5

6.5 OUT! Mishra strikes in his first over! Watson's struggle out there comes to an end. Mishra tosses this one up on off and once again the ball turns a little. Watson tries to go over long off but does not get it off the middle. It lobs towards Boult there who takes an easy catch. A much-needed wicket for Delhi and they are right back into the game. 46/1

| Ambati Rayudu | 50 | 29 | 4 | 4 | 172.41 |
|
10 OUT! In the air... gone! The missed run out chance has not cost Delhi a lot here. They have got the man they so desperately needed. Harshal Patel dismisses the man in-form. Rayudu uses his feet and gets a slower ball on the pads. He goes for the flick. Seems to have connected well as the ball goes high up in the air. It does not have the distance though and he holes out to Glenn Maxwell at deep mid-wicket who takes a really good catch. Such skiers are never easy. Rayudu walks back after reaching another half century and Chennai need another 93 in 60 balls. Game on! 70/2

| Suresh Raina | 15 | 18 | 1 | 0 | 83.33 |
|
13.1 OUT! How often have we seen this? A wicket right after the strategic break and it is of the dangerous Raina. He too fails to make use of the reprieve he got. He though might consider himself a touch unlucky here as he hit that well. Sandeep bowls the googly and it is quite full on middle, Raina whips it off the middle. He hits it flat and it goes into the hands of Vijay Shankar at deep mid-wicket who takes it. Another timely wicket for Delhi and Sandeep is pumped. Chennai in a spot of bother here. 90/3

| MS Dhoni C Wk | 17 | 23 | 1 | 0 | 73.91 |
|
18 OUT! Game set and match, if it was not obvious before this delivery. Dhoni holes out. A low full toss on middle, Dhoni tries to go over long on but fails to get the desired connection. It goes low towards Iyer there who takes a good catch diving forward. 50 needed from the last two overs. 113/5

| Sam Billings | 1 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 20 |

14.3 OUT! Another one bites the dust here! Billings is the man who walks back. Amit Mishra tosses this one up outside off stump, Billings goes down on one knee and tries to sweep. He gets a top edge which lobs towards short fine leg where Sharma takes an easy catch. Chennai now face an uphill task here, 70 from 33 needed. 93/4
