Chennai Super Kings (CSK) spinners, Ravindra Jadeja and Moeen Ali rocked the Rajasthan Royals (RR) batting line-up with five wickets in less than four overs as they dismissed the likes of David Miller, Jos Buttler, Riyan Parag, Shivam Dube and Chris Morris to jolt the RR run-chase to win by 45 runs. At one stage, Buttler was well on his way to score his fifty, but was dismissed through a beautiful delivery by Jadeja to start the batting collapse. From 87/2, RR went to 97/7 in less than fours overs. Ravindra Jadeja took two wickets and grabbed four catches as he put up an amazing all-round show to help CSK earn their second win of IPL 2021 and keep their ships steady with back-to-back victories. RR on the other hand need to gather their resources and utilise them to the fullest with other important fixtures to follow in the tournament.
