Unlike the top three from SRH, CSK's batters struggled barring Shivam Dube who smashed 45 off 24 balls to inject some momentum in the middle overs. However, once he was dismissed, CSK scored just 46 off the last 6.2 overs.
22:51 Local Time, 17:21 GMT, 22:51 IST: Back to back losses on the road for the defending champions. On a pitch where their batting firepower was stifled due to the sluggish nature of the track, they had to face the full wrath of the hosts who came out blazing in the powerplay knowing that it'll get difficult later on. Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head and Aiden Markram came out swinging to smash 78 off the first six overs, and the game was all but sealed right there. CSK did pull things back through a wonderful spell from Moeen Ali, but it was too little too late.
