That's all from this game! We are not done with Super Sunday yet as there is another game coming up as Mumbai face Rajasthan in Abu Dhabi. Switch over tabs to catch all the action from this game.

Ruturaj Gaikwad is named Player of the Match for his fine unbeaten half ton.

Sam Curran is caught for a quick chat. He says that they were trying to get a win and is pleased to have ended up on the winning side. Praises Gaikwad for his knock. Adds that he tried to make the batters play more on the square of the wicket and he bowled a lot of slower balls. States that he always tries to improve on his slower balls and work on his back of the hand slower balls. Tells that they have been impressed with how Gaikwad has been playing in the nets and is pleased that it worked.

Virat Kohli, the Bangalore skipper, says that the second innings was not a true representation of how the pitch was. Adds that they gave too many boundary balls. Says that 140 plus was a very competitive total but they did not bowl well. Goes onto say that they could have bowled change of pace and they were not expressive enough and they did not bowl according to plan. Tells that it was difficult to get under the ball. Feels that all teams are a good side but not everyone have a great tournament and it is all about how you conquer the park on a given day. Tells that they have been playing very good cricket and they are still confident. Says that they have a lot of positives going ahead.

Earlier in the game, their bowlers did a fine job to restrict Bangalore to under 150. However, they were tidy from the start but with set Kohli and de Villiers batting, it might have been mayhem had they got going but the Chennai bowlers didn't let them do that. Kohli did get to a half ton while de Villiers too played a fine knock but they just couldn't break free. Sam Curran once again starred with the ball for Chennai while he got good support from Chahar. And eventually, the score that they restricted Bangalore too, they chased it down easily. Stay tuned for the presentation...

Bangalore needed early wickets. It did come in the 5th over as Morris got better of his countryman du Plessis but the Protea had given a fine start by that time. And after that wicket, the Bangalore bowlers failed to strike for a long time as Gaikwad and Rayudu's fine batting kept them at bay. With hardly any pressure of the asking rate, Chennai batters kept things nice and under control and didn't give chances to the bowlers. Chahal was once again good with the ball but he just got one wicket and didn't get much support from the other end. And eventually, Chennai hunted down the total with 8 balls to spare.

Chasing the target, Chennai were off to a flying start with du Plessis and Gaikwad adding 46 in just 5.1 overs. Faf fell against the run of play but Rayudu arrived and along with Gaikwad kept taking the game away. The duo added 67 runs between them in a quick time and never allowed the Bangalore bowlers to settle. Rayudu too fell but before he went, the asking rate was well under control and eventually Dhoni with his calmness along with Gaikwad, took the team over the line easily.

Comfortably done in the end! Fine batting performance from Dhoni's men in this encounter that sees them break the shackles and win a game after a hat-trick of defeats. Special mention to the youngster Gaikwad who stayed till the end to take the team home!
