9:12pm CSK bowlers pull it back towards the end - giving away only 80 in the last ten overs after Royals were 95 at the ten-over mark. Jadeja was the pick of the bowlers, with two wickets. Moeen was taken apart in the first over but returned towards the end to dismiss Buttler. Akash and Deshpande didn't give many away at the death with only 29 coming off the last four overs.

Jos Buttler: "Started off like a very good wicket, slowed down and Jadeja bowled well. Powerplay, you are always trying to take advantage of that. We lost a few early wickets and so I had to take the game deeper. Tried to take advantage of the back end but got out early. [On playing Jadeja] He bowls very fast and gets it to spin. It is hard to play him once it spins. We have Ashwin, Chahal and Zampa who are outstanding spinners. We have good success with our spinners and traditionally this is a good place to bowl spin."

CSK need 176 to win in Dhoni's 200th match as a captain for them. Is it gettable or is it just beyond them? Ashish will be here soon with the reply.

Deshpande to Zampa, 1 run, OUT, Theekshana drops a sitter but Zampa is run-out! He scoops it high to short fine leg but he runs around and drops it. Regathers and throws it to Dhoni, who underarms a throw at the stumps. Royals have 175 on the board.

A Zampa run out 1 (2m 1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 100.00

Importantly for CSK, Hetmyer is off strike. Adam Zampa is the Impact Player in now. Jos Buttler has been subbed out.
