Chennai Super Kings XI: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Robin Uthappa, Ambati Rayudu, MS Dhoni (capt & wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Moeen Ali, Dwaine Pretorius, Maheesh Theekshana, Simarjeet Singh, Mukesh Choudhary
Hazlewood gets Dhoni and shatters CSK last hope! Length ball on fourth stump, Dhoni smokes a pull but doesn't get the elevation and picks out Patidar at the deep midwicket rope.
After being hit for a six, Harshal gets his revenge on Moeen Ali! Floats this up back of a length on the wide guideline, probably a wide of Moeen, who toe slaps it tamely to Siraj on the ring at extra cover
Theekshana gets his third of the over! Carom ball lands on a good length on middle and skids on past a tame flick across the line to light up the stumps.
Full on fifth stump from Theekshana, and Lomror tries to muscle this drive over long-off but skews it again off the toe of the bat and it flutters to Gaikwad. On a hattrick!
Wanindu Hasaranga de Silva c Gaikwad b Theekshana 0 (1)
Lighting fast from MS Dhoni! RCB lose two in quick succession. Uthappa from cover pounces on the ball and returns a swift, fast throw to Dhoni, who flashes the bail. Maxwell's got to go.
This it's Faf who takes the aerial route! In the slot, fuller in length from Choudhary. gets his front foot out and swings it over long-on for a six. Brings up the fifty partnership as well!
