    6.2 goes straight up, and Simarjeet gets the breakthrough CSK wanted! Bangs it in on a hard length just outside off. Jaiswal, rather instinctively, goes for the pull. The ball, though, gets big on him and he cannot control it. Shanks it straight up and Gaikwad, running in from extra cover, does the rest. Big moment in the game! 43/1
    8.1 the catch is taken, and Chepauk comes alive again! Full outside off. Buttler, feeling the pinch of the scoring rate, unfurls the lap. Does not get into a great position and cannot get as far across as he would have liked. Arrows it towards long long, where Deshpande runs well around the bend to his right and then snaffles up the chance. RR have now lost both of their openers in quick succession! 49/2
    14.2 Simarjeet has three, and he is having a day out in the Chennai sun! Full outside off, and with mid off up, Samson goes after it. The ball, though, is full enough to deny him the elevation he desires. Arrows it straight to Gaikwad at mid off, and the CSK skipper makes no mistake! 91/3

    19.1 Jurel miscues, and Shardul snares it! Fullish outside off. Jurel, sitting back in his crease, tries to fight the angle and go leg-side but does so in vain. Slices across it too much and the ball spoons up towards extra cover. Shardul does not take it very cleanly, but that will do for now for CSK! 131/4
    19.2 two in two for Tushar Deshpande! 117.1kph cutter dug into the track outside off. Dubey is way too early into the stroke. In fact, he plays two or three shots in his head before eventually dangling his bat out. Loops up to backward point, and Dube sends Dubey packing! 131/5

    3.4 Ashwin outfoxes Rachin! Fizzed through on a length on middle and leg. Rachin tries to smack this into next week and loses his shape. The ball seems to hold in the surface too, and the ball goes straight up. Ashwin calls for it early and does the rest. Just what RR needed at this stage! 32/1

    7.5 huge appeal, and given! Chahal into the act straightaway! On a length on middle stump. Skids on and straightens just a shade. Mitchell plays all over it. Gets struck right in front and umpire Rohan Pandit raises his finger. Mitchell has a chat with his skipper, before deciding to go upstairs. No bat involved. Ball Tracking comes up, and it reckons the ball would have smashed into the top of middle stump. Mitchell has to go, and he takes a review along with him! 67/2
    11.5 Moeen holes out! Full, wide and there to be hit. Moeen goes through the line but does not quite commit to it fully. Times it well enough but does not have the power to clear the fence. Avesh does the rest at deep cover point, and RR are just beginning to inch back into the contest! 86/3
    13.6 Dube falls to Ashwin! Ashwin dangles the carrot on a length just outside off and Dube bites. Has a huge swing at it but does not get to the pitch as much. Cloths it and the ball goes high up towards long on. Parag keeps his nerve, and then gobbles up the chance. Is there another twist in the tale?! 107/4
    15.5 Drama at Chepauk! Shortish outside off. Jadeja uses the pace and the angle and glides it towards third man. Jadeja is hell-bent on the second, and is sent back by Gaikwad, who has not moved a muscle at the other end. Samson collects the throw and then fires it at the other end, catching Jadeja on the back in the process. Looks like RR have appealed for obstructing the field. Jadeja's turn had quite a sizeable radius, and the third umpire reckons Jadeja knew where the ball was, and that he turned into the line of the throw. 'Out' is the verdict, and Jadeja has to go. He is not happy at all, but the verdict is out. What a moment in this game! 121/5
