RR vs CSK Live Cricket Score

2.5 OUT! It is not umpire's call, it is actually three reds. Rahane has been given the marching orders. The exciting start for Rajasthan has been cut short. All the credit here has to go to Chahar as he was the one who was adamant to take the review. It is a length ball and angling into the batsman. Rahane takes a few steps ahead and then looks to flick. He misses and gets hit on the pads. An appeal follows and then the umpire shakes his head. Deepak wants it to be reviewed and Dhoni, in the nick of time takes it. Replays roll in and they show that the on-field call has to be overturned. 31/1

3.4 OUT! In the air... taken! Thakur has the last laugh. He has probably got Rajasthan's best batsman. Buttler is guilty of playing one shot too many here. Having already got three boundaries in the over, not sure if this was needed. He once again goes for the audacious back foot slap over covers. This time though the ball hits the higher portion of the bat and lobs up in the air towards covers. Rayudu there settles under it and takes it with ease. So the runs are flowing but wickets too are falling. 47/2

5.2 OUT! Samson holes out! Not sure what the Rajasthan batsmen are doing here. They are only looking to hit the boundaries. Samson falls in the attempt to do so. He goes for the slog sweep but due to the extra bounce Santner gets, a top edge is induced. It goes uppishly towards deep mid-wicket. The substitute Shorey there runs in and takes it not in the first, not in the second but in the third attempt. A much-needed wicket for Santner as this will boost his confidence which would have been low. 53/3

10.5 OUT! 100th wicket for Jadeja in this league! Half the side back in the hut! Smith is the man walking back now. A body blow, this, for the hosts as they would have hoped for him to anchor the innings. Another poor stroke. Smith brings out the slog sweep. It is not right off the middle and it goes straight to Ambati Rayudu at deep mid-wicket. He makes no mistake. Rajasthan slip further. 78/5

8.5 OUT! Another one bites the dust! An excellent catch by Jadhav. Tripathi fails to make the most of the reprieve. He looks to repeat what he did on the last ball, as he once again looks to hit it over covers. This time though there is a little turn on this one. It flies off the outside edge towards point. Jadhav there takes a couple of steps back and then stretches one hand up but the ball spills out. He though does really well to keep his eyes on the ball and take it on the second attempt. Rajasthan in trouble here. They need a partnership. 69/4

18.2 OUT! TIMBER! Any hopes of 150 now seems to have disappeared with that wicket. The slower ball does the trick for Chahar. It is on the stumps. Stokes throws the kitchen sink at it but the ball keeps low and rattles the stumps behind. 126/7

15 OUT! The debutant's start has come to an end. A bit of a loose shot, really. It's a bit short and well outside off, Parag moves a step across and looks to heave it over the leg side. Only manages an edge behind which Dhoni takes comfortably. He sticks around for some reason, unsure of what exactly, but the umpire tells him to walk off. 103/6

0.4 OUT! Bowled 'em! Dhawal Kulkarni and the entire Rajasthan side is pumped up! A length ball landing on middle and shapes away at the last moment. Watson looks to flick it through mid-wicket but ends up playing down the wrong line. The stumps are rattled. Chennai one down before even adding a run on the board! 0/1

4 OUT! Du Plessis will have to walk off now! A length ball on middle, he looks to pull it over deep mid-wicket but fails to time it well as it hits him high on the bat. It flies to deep mid-wicket where Tripathi covers good ground and holds on for an excellent take. 3 down within the Powerplay and Rajasthan firing on all cylinders here. 15/3

1.5 OUT! Raina is indeed short! This is unforgiveable! A really soft dismissal at this level of cricket. Too casual. A length ball at the hips, tucked towards short fine leg by Raina and he sets off for a single. He though does not expect the throw at his end but Archer picks the ball and goes towards the bowler's end. Raina was ball watching but the fielder scores a direct hit. The on-field umpire takes it upstairs. The replays show that Raina is well short. Chennai have been struck twice in two overs! 5/2
