CSK pipped SRH by four runs to return to the top of IPL table.
Chasing a challenging 183-run target, SunRisers skipper Kane Williamson (84) and Yusuf Pathan (45 off 27) put up a good fight but fell short.
Winning the toss, Williamson opted to field. CSK started slow but were powered to 182 for 3, courtesy Ambati Rayudu's brilliant knock of 79 off only 37 balls and Suresh Raina's brisk 43-ball 54. The visiting team then stopped the hosts at 178 for six, with medium pacer Deepak Chahar doing the bulk of the damage.
