    3.3 seems like it is the plan to go after CV Varun early, and it has backfired. A legbreak from Varun, which Gaikwad tries to slog. Don't think he has picked him from the hand. The ball turns, and takes a thick edge to short third 31/1
    9.3 Thakur's golden arm strikes. A third short ball, 131ks this time. All different pace, and different bounce from the surface. This time he gets a top edge on the pull, and is caught at deep square leg 66/3
    7.6 Rahane with the right intent but his success rate against spin is not as good as against pace. He skips down the pitch looking for a straight six, but the carrom ball takes the thick outside edge for a catch to long-off 61/2
    10.1 and he has cleaned Rayudu up. Offbreak, Rayudu sweeps, beaten, and he has hit the top of off. What else can you ask of a bowler? The lack of boundaries of late showing in their shots 68/4

    10.6 the carrom ball, and he gone right through. Moeen is watching for the offbreak, but Narine has slipped in a quicker carrom ball. Beats the inside edge, and takes off and middle. One more wicket to Dhoni's batting 72/5
    19.4 the knowledgeable Chennai crowd roars. Jadeja has ramped a bouncer straight to short third. Now they get to see MS Dhoni for two balls 140/6

    4.3 another catch at short third. Slower ball, wide, really full. Roy has picked the slower ball, and looks to drive, but gets an edge healthy enough to carry to short third. Off a slower knuckle ball. Chahar has three wickets in three overs 33/3
    0.6 Chahar keeps finding ways to take wicket. This is a wide half-volley, just too wide, which means Gurbaz can't quite middle his square-drive, which he has no plans to keep down. There is a deep point in place, and it it going high to him. Deshpande runs to his right to complete the high catch inches inside the boundary. Had the ball been a touch straighter, Gurbaz would have made a better connection and got six 4/1
    2.5 wow. Chahar has again got a wicket in a manner you don't really plan. This is short of a length, sufficiently wide for Iyer to throw his hands at it, and he end sup playing it finer than he wants to. Caught at short third of all places 21/2

    17.1 slower ball, 132ks, the bottom hand comes off, the ball goes towards cover but they go for the single. Moeen beats Rinku with a direct hit. Finally a wicket for CSK. Might there be a twist? 132/4
