Get to know every report and live score for Chennai Super Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders.
Summary of CSK Last Match:
Shivam Dube's innings and the late blows from MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja helped Chennai Super Kings (CSK) recover to a score of 167/8 in their 20 overs. The slow pitch caused CSK's problems early on and appears to have had a similar effect on Delhi Capitals. However, unlike CSK, DC never really bounced back and ultimately lost the game by a score of 27 runs. Early losses included David Warner and Phil Salt, and Mitchell Marsh was knocked out following a mix-up with Manish Pandey. Pandey and the perilous Rilee Rossouw made an effort to create something, but instead they created a sluggish partnership that dramatically increased the required rate for DC. Rossouw was eliminated after scoring 35 off 37 while Pandey eventually fell for 27 off 29 balls. Their partnership consumed 59 balls, but they only managed to score that many runs. DC was ultimately only able to earn a score of 140/8, staying at the bottom of the standings. Prior to that, CSK was stumbling at 77/4 in 11 overs on a pitch that seemed to get slower and slower as the innings went on. In a 38-run partnership with Jadeja that took just 18 balls for the seventh wicket, Dhoni scored 20 runs in nine deliveries. Prior to that, Dube scored 25 runs in 12 balls after the CSK top order had been encircled by Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, and Lalit Yadav. With only seven runs allowed and two wickets taken in his final over, Mitchell Marsh finished with figures of 3/18.
Summary of KKR Last Match:
A power-hitting display by Yashasvi Jaiswal completely
eclipsed a four-wicket haul from Yuzvendra Chahal as Rajasthan Royals
disregarded the 150-run target Kolkata Knight Riders had set for them.
Venkatesh Iyer led KKR to a score of 149/8 with a score of 57 off 52 balls.
Jaiswal then entered the fray and seized control of the chase, scoring 26 runs
off the first over and never looking back. In just 13 balls, he set a new IPL
record for the fastest fifty. Sanju Samson entered the fray and joined the
celebration while Jaiswal took his foot off the gas, preventing him from
scoring his second century of the year. With a four, Jaiswal helped RR cross
the finish line and finished the game on 98 off 47 with 12 fours and five
sixes. Sanju Samson was unbeaten at the other end with 48 off 29 when their
partnership ended with 121 off 69 balls.
