Chennai Super Kings scored 67 runs in the last 5 overs.
Tushar Deshpande got rid of Sam Curran for a duck, but Watson (36) and Du Plessis (58) added 87 runs for the second wicket. MS Dhoni made just 3 runs, while CSK was looking for a good finish to their total.
They got in the form of Ambati Rayudu (45* in 24 balls; 4 sixes, 1 four) and Ravindra Jadeja (33* in 13 balls; 4 sixes), who added fifty unbeaten runs in the last 3 and a half overs.
Anrich Nortje went for 44 runs in his 4 overs for 2 wickets, while Ashwin gave 30 runs in 3 overs. Rabada and Deshpande picked a wicket each.
The cricket fraternity was all praises for the Rayudu-Jadeja combo on Twitter, which took CSK’s score from a decent one to a fighting one as they ended on 179/4 in 20 overs.
