It was a much hyped match between the table toppers SRH and CSK. SRH were well ahead on the points table and it looked as if they would have an edge over CSK.

However, as soon as the match began, CSK showed one and all that they would play like true champions. Deepak Chahar and Shardul Thakur started the proceedings with the ball moving all around.
Shikhar Dhawan and Kane Williamson first stabilized the SRH innings and once that was done launched a full blooded attack on the SRH bowlers. Both notched up explosive fifties to take SRH to s good total.
CSK then came out to chase and openers Shane Watson and Ambati Rayudu made a mockery of the total. After Watson got out, Rayudu took CSK over the line with a explosive century.
He was well assisted by skipper Dhoni. Twitter erupted as both took CSK to the playoffs.
