Khaleel bowls it on a good length and in the channel outside off, skids through off the surface a bit. Yashasvi Jaiswal throws his hands at it and looks to drive it on the up.

He departs after a sensational knock of 81 (36), and the Rajasthan Royals are 124/3 now. 124/3

17.5 OUT! TIMBER! That is a caulker of a yorker from Matheesha Pathirana and he gets the set batter out. A searing and inswinging yorker from the Lankan at over 146 clicks and right on the money.

Parag departs for a well-made 37 off 28 and CSK closing down things rather well here. 166/6

18.5 OUT! RUN OUT! Tentative running from the batters and CSK pick up yet another wicket. Khaleel Ahmed spears in a good yorker around off and gets it to tail in a bit as well. Shimron Hetmyer comes forward to swipe it away but gets an inside edge onto the pads and the ball goes nowhere. The batters stop and start a bit before scampering through for the run as Khaleel picks up the ball and runs to the keeper's end to knock off the bails. Replays show that Kumar Kartikeya was just short of his ground. 175/8

0.4 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! That is some exceptional bowling from Jofra Archer as he provides an early breakthrough for RR in this chase, and the in-form batter of CSK, Rachin Ravindra, is gone for a duck in the very first over! Jofra keeps bowling in that channel, outside off, and prompts the batter to go for that cut shot. He bowls it on a dragged length and keeps it away from the batter to angling it across. Rachin Ravindra stands tall and looks to slice it with no foot movement. He only manages to get a thick outside edge, which goes to the left of the keeper, Dhruv Jurel, who takes it there. 0/1

7.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Wanindu Hasaranga strikes instantly! Rahul Tripathi’s scratchy inning comes to an end as Chennai Super Kings lose their second.

15.5 OUT! CAUGHT! That's a body blow for Chennai Super Kings as their skipper departs for a well-made 63 off 44 balls. Wanindu Hasaranga gets his fourth!

Hits it high and straight to Yashasvi Jaiswal at long on who takes a simple catch. Chennai Super Kings lose half their side now for 129 runs. 129/5

9.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Riyan Parag has pulled out an absolute blinder of a catch, and Shivam Dube departs after a small cameo of 18 (10). What a big moment this could be in the game. It was in the slot and Shivam Dube almost managed to get this through too, but Riyan Parag plunges in between to grab on. Full and on off, Shivam Dube frees his arms and crunches it off the middle of the bat to the right of cover. Parag flings himself to the right and outstretches his right hand to grab the ball. The third umpire is summoned to check if it was taken cleanly, and after watching a couple of angles, it is deemed a fair catch as Riyan Parag has his fingers underneath the ball when he slides. 72/3

11.5 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Wanindu Hasaranga hits right back and picks up his third wicket! Hasaranga gives this one a lot more guile and bowls it slower around off. The length isn't quite full either, and Vijay Shankar is drawn forward, but he is beaten in the flight, and it is the wrong'un that turns back in past the inside edge and castles into the off stump. RR get another timely wicket, and CSK are now 92/4! 92/4

19.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Shimron Hetmyer takes a superb catch and that should be the game!
