9:17 PM IST- S Kaul to Rayudu, out Bowled!!

9:15 PM IST- S Kaul to Raina, out Bowled!! Oh dear! The fear of the short ball has consumed Raina once again, a nice little cameo, but nothing else. He pre-empted that Kaul would bowl a short ball and shuffled across his stunmps, in the process, he left the leg-stump exposed. This wasn’t a short ball, just a length delivery that was heading towards the leg-stump, once Raina clipped and missed, it was curtains for the left-hander. Raina b S Kaul 22(13) [4s-4]

Note: The winner of this match will qualify for the Finals, while the loser will get one more chance and will play against the Eliminator Winner. (Eliminator will be played between KKR and RR on tomorrow)

7:40 PM IST- Dwayne Bravo to Shakib, out Caught by Dhoni!! Strangle down leg episode 2!! CSK are literally strangling SRH here. Another SRH batsman gets out to a poor delivery. It was slow, down leg and asking to be whacked, Shakib swivels and tries to oblige, ends up dragging it off his glove which makes a tiny tickle off his thigh pad before nestling into Dhoni’s mitts. CSK are on fire…. Shakib c Dhoni b Dwayne Bravo 12(10) [4s-2]

7:20 PM IST- SN Thakur to Williamson, out Caught by Dhoni!! Is that the game for CSK? Tom Moody looks stunned. An absolute gift of a wicket this. Short and drifting down leg, Williamson senses a boundary-scoring opportunity and gives it a real whack, no bat. It spooned up off the glove and traveled directly into the hands of MS behind the stumps. Williamson c Dhoni b SN Thakur 24(15) [4s-4]
