Like bad things, all good things need to come to an end. Hyderabad's 6-match winning streak has come to an end while Chennai move a step closer to the playoffs. 8 wins they have now, with a tally of 16 points. How will that effect Mumbai and Rajasthan? They would have hoped that Hyderabad win. Anyways, they will now battle against each other at the Wankhede in a few minutes' time. Hop on to that game! See ya there!
Ambati Rayudu has been named the Man Of The Match for his terrific century. Not the least surprising, especially when he has scored more than half the team's runs. His form has been vital to Chennai's success this season.
Earlier in the day, Hyderabad made a tremendous recovery after starting slowly on a sluggish pitch. Dhawan's 79 and Williamson's 51 took them to a commanding 179. What probably hurt Hyderabad was the rain which came towards the end of the first innings. After it came and went, the swing disappeared and the pitch became a good one to bat on as well.
For a change, the best bowling attack of the tournament suffered. They never got their lines and lengths right from the start and Watson made them pay. Crucially, Rashid Khan was played out, without any wickets and the rest simply struggled. Even the highly consistent Bhuvi and the impressive Kaul suffered.
Masterful chase from Chennai. The openers set the platform with a 134-run stand and that paved the way for the win. Watson was typically brutal early on and then Rayudu matched him shot for shot. Hyderabad then sniffed a chance of a comeback with a couple of quick wickets but Rayudu and Dhoni ensured there were no more hiccups.
Second match in a row, have we seen a big target being chased down with consummate ease. When you score 179, on a sluggish track, 9 out of 10 times you win. This was that other 1 game.

No fuss. No six. Just a calm flick behind square leg for a simple single. Not quite adhering to the crowd's request for a biggie. CHENNAI WIN BY 8 WICKETS!!!

THERE IT IS! Maiden League hundred, forget that, maiden T20 hundred for Rayudu! A magnificent effort. This is the fourth hundred overall this season and three have come against Hyderabad!
