That is all we have from this exciting game. The action in the Indian T20 League continues on Tuesday, the 26th of April with Bangalore taking on Rajasthan at the MCA Stadium in Pune. That match will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). You can join us in advance for the build-up. Until then, it's goodbye and cheers!
Shikhar Dhawan (88 off 59 balls) is the Player of the Match! 'Gabbar' as he is fondly called says that he believes in the process and focuses on that a lot. Adds that he keeps working on his skills and knows the result will take care of itself. Shares that the pitch was stopping a bit and when he tried to go for the big shots, he didn't connect well, so he kept calm, and held himself back for the end overs. Mentions that while batting first the plan is to get the boundaries and put pressure on the bowlers along with preserving the wickets. States that they have to avoid going into a shell and maintain a good balance. Smiles that he has become a senior and he gives a lot of input to the players and the captain. Further says that he advises the youngsters on how to keep their composure and avoid overthinking.
Mayank Agarwal, the captain of Punjab, starts by saying that they would like to win a few tosses and it's hard when you have to keep chasing the game from the start. Praises Arshdeep Singh for his bowling and lauds the effort of Kagiso Rabada as well. Feels that these two changed the course of the game for them. Adds that as a captain he has to think about being smart and the plan was to make the opposite team hit the big shots towards the longer part of the ground. Tells that it's been a great learning experience for him. Feels that it's very important for them to carry on with this momentum.
Kagiso Rabada comes up for a quick chat! The speedster says that in the Powerplay, they were a bit behind the rate but commended Shikhar Dhawan and Bhanuka Rajapaksa for their knocks. Smiles and praises Liam Livingstone for his few 'gentle' strokes as well. Tells that after that the bowling attack put its hand up. Further says that Arshdeep Singh has been the best death bowler in the competition and is very talented. Kagiso adds that he knows that he will bowl at the death and states that everyone else knows the role. Lauds the bowling effort of the whole group with a special mention for Rishi Dhawan who bowled the final over. Mentions that it's nerve-wracking when you bowl to MS Dhoni with not a single red jersey in the crowd and credits Rishi for pulling it off.
Ravindra Jadeja, the captain of Chennai, says that they started well with the new ball but gave away 10-15 runs too many in the end overs. Mentions that they didn't execute their plans well. Adds that Rayudu was batting brilliantly but again says that they should have restricted Punjab under 170-175. Tells that they are not getting good starts in the first 6 overs and they need to improve on that and come back stronger.
Punjab made it difficult for themselves but their pace attack looked in good touch and they did come through when their side needed it the most. After a terrific start in the Powerplay from Sandeep Sharma and Rishi Dhawan, both of whom were making a comeback into the side, Punjab had the upper hand. Rayudu did take away the game from them for a brief spell and the spinners went for a bit of tap. Sharma did go for 23 runs in his last over but Kagiso Rabada, Arshdeep Singh and Rishi Dhawan held their nerves at the death to get their side back to winning ways. Stay tuned for the interviews...
Chennai almost pulled it off and a big reason for that is the knock Ambati Rayudu played. Rayudu single-handedly dragged them back into the game and put them in a winning position. MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja hit a few lusty blows but in the end, it was a bridge too far. Chennai have now lost six out of their eight games and need a miracle to make it through to the playoffs. The top order failed miserably but Ruturaj Gaikwad showed some form which is a positive sign for them.
Yet another riveting contest but brilliant death bowling from Punjab has seen them hold on to a crucial win. They went for less than 9 runs an over to seal the victory and in doing so have completed the double over the reigning champions.

PUNJAB WIN BY 11 RUNS! Rishi delivers it very full and around off, Jadeja drives it all along the ground to long off for a run. That's it, what an over under pressure from Rishi Dhawan.

Rishi Dhawan To MS Dhoni OUT!
OUT! DHONI HOLES OUT! Rishi Dhawan has hit the jackpot with a very poor delivery. Full and down the leg side, Dhoni tries to smash it over square leg but it takes the bottom of the bat and flies to deep mid-wicket. Jonny Bairstow takes the catch and he is the most unpopular man at the Wankhede currently. This game is done and dusted now.

Rishi Dhawan To MS Dhoni
SIX! That is out of the ground! The crowd is going mad. MS Dhoni is doing it again. Short and around leg, Dhoni turns and muscles it over backward square leg for a maximum. 21 needed off 5 balls and Dhoni! Dhoni! Dhoni! is echoing at Wankhede.
Rishi Dhawan (3-0-24-1) to bowl the final over. Can he defend 26 runs? Or will MS reign supreme again?

Just short! A wide yorker outside off, MS throws his bat at it and his bottom hand comes off the handle. It flies behind backward point and Rabada perhaps lost it in the lights. He lets it bounce in front of him and then collects the ball. A single is taken.

Kagiso Rabada To MS Dhoni
Spicy bowling! Kagiso Rabada has his tail up. Digs it in short, around off at 136.4 kph, MS Dhoni drops his wrists and allows it through. A couple of great overs from Punjab here and they have gained the upper hand.
MS Dhoni walks out to bat next. Can he finish things off just like he did in the previous game?

Kagiso Rabada To Ambati Rayudu OUT!
OUT! STUMPS SHATTERED! Kagiso Rabada removes the danger man. The South African speedster brings all his experience into play. Bowled a slower bumper and follows it up with a toe-crushing yorker around leg at 137.3 kph. Ambati Rayudu tries to whip it across the line but misses. It smashes his pads and deflects onto the stumps. End of a wonderful knock from Rayudu but it's a big blow at this stage for Chennai. 35 needed off 13 balls.
