CLASSY SHOW: Deepak Chahar celebrates after dismissing Mayank Agarwal of Punjab Kings at the Wankhede
Low-scoring chases are tricky and on occasion a sense of complacency can crop in, but Faf du Plessis ensured that Chennai Super Kings got their IPL campaign back on track with a commanding six-wicket victory over Punjab Kings in a fairly one-sided encounter at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Friday.
The match belonged to CSK pacer Deepak Chahar, who sealed Punjab’s fate early with magical figures of 4/13, including a wicket maiden to ensure a nightmarish outing for Rahul’s men, who were put in to bat by Chennai.
On a pitch that MS Dhoni reckoned would do a bit early on, the 28-year-old Chahar, the first Indian to take a hattrick in T20Is, stood up to be counted, restricting Punjab to 106/8. The win was an extension of CSK’s complete recent dominance over Punjab. CSK beat them by 10 and 9 wickets in the previous edition played in the UAE.
