Rahane sends this into the first tier beyond square leg. Short and angling into the body, from over the wicket, Rahane gets into a strong position, controls the pull and sends the ball soaring over the boudnary. Expensive over.

MS Dhoni reaches his fifty and then Jadeja hits a six to take CSK past the 130-run mark. Excellent effort from these two. KKR, however, will fancy them to chase this down comfortably.

Flies off the top-edge for six! Dhoni has a swung at this mighty high full toss that slips off Mavi's hands, flies into the stands at fine leg. Mavi has overstepped too. Dhoni will try to have another go at him.
