Chasing a massive score, CSK lost their top three cheaply. While Duffy accounted for the openers, Bhuvi nipped out Ayush Mhatre. Despite that, the visitors scored 77 in the powerplay, thanks to Sarfaraz Khan's counterattacking 24-ball fifty. Krunal removed the half-centurion with his first delivery and then removed Kartik Sharma in the same over. An outstanding one-handed catch from Jitesh Sharma resulted in Dube's downfall. Young Prashant Veer showed his hitting prowess and Jamie Overton played another cameo. But that only helped in reducing the margin of defeat somewhat. Special mention to Suyash Sharma who finished with impressive figures of 1/21 - the most economical bowler. All in all, it was complete all-round performance from the defending champions.
