"It was a gradual transition this year between me on Jaddu. He knew from last season that he would be given a chance at captaincy this year."
Summarizing this match, Chennai planned their batting innings nicely. Their openers sized up the conditions in the Powerplay with their watchful approach and then went bonkers. Ruturaj Gaikwad was in his elements, stroking 99, and along with Devon Conway, he raised a record opening stand for Chennai in the League. They didn't get the desired finish but any score above 200 was always going to be handy.
SIX! to begin the over and then a FOUR, fifty for Pooran! This is followed by a dot ! The pressure is off Mukesh Choudhary but Pooran isnt finished. Smashes the fourth and fifth ball of the over for sixes again. The last ball is a single and GAME OVER! 6 4 0 Wd 6 6 1 = 20 runs off the final over. CSK WIN!!
DRS time! Huge shout for an lbw, the finger has stayed down. MS Dhoni has agreed to review it but there isn't much excitement shown by the Chennai players. No bat on the UltraEdge. Ball Tracking shows that it's missing the leg stump The game is in the bag for CSK, well almost. 38 needed in the last over. SRH: 165/6 after 19 overs
Washington Sundar is gone as he tries to get cheeky but ends up throwing away his wicket. A full ball, on middle to which Sundar moves across and looks to scoop it over short fine leg. He misses it completely and the ball crashes onto the stumps. Mukesh Choudhary gets a 4-fer. SRH: 153/6 after 18 overs
Shashank Singh reviews and a clear spike on the UltraEdge. There was certainly some noise when the ball passed the bat. This was a slower ball, into the surface, outside off. Shashank Singh looks to cut hard but he gets a faint edge before the ball goes to the keeper who collects it cleanly. SRH: 151/5 after 17.4 overs
Cracking shot from Pooran! A slower ball, full and outside off. Pooran prods and smokes it straight back over the bowler's head for a massive biggie. SRH: 147/4 after 17 overs
Chennai have wrestled back the momentum and are in the driver's seat. Their bowlers kept things quiet and let the scoreboard pressure do its magic. Hyderabad's hopes are pinned big time on the shoulders of Nicholas Pooran and Shashank Singh - both known for their big hitting. 68 needed off 24 balls. Can they do it? SRH: 135/4 after 16 overs
Kane Williamson is gone ! and he starts to walk but his partner asks him to review. He has done that but there is a resigned look on his face. Clever change in pace, at 128 kph, Dwaine Pretorius traps the Kiwi on the back leg. They appeal and the finger has gone up. DRS is taken and the UltraEdge detects no bat. Ball Tracking shows three reds and Williamson will have to go. 77 needed off 34 balls. SRH: 131/4 after 15 overs
Kane Williamson, SIX! Clears the fence! Perhaps the slower one, on a length and outside off, Kane Williamson gives the charge but has to reach out for it in the end. His bottom hand comes off the handle but he still ends up dragging it all the way over wide long on for a biggie. SRH: 113/3 after 13 overs
Aiden Markram, OUT! CAUGHT! Mitchell Santner has the last laugh! Aiden Markram goes for another big one but holes out this time around! This is dragged down, around off. Markram rocks back and looks to pull hard. He mistimes his shot and the ball goes in the air towards deep mid-wicket. Ravindra Jadeja settles under it and makes no mistake. This is a huge wicket in the context of this game.

It was brilliant. We had a fantastic time in Jo'burg, it was great to see family and friends, pretty grateful that CSK allowed me the opportunity to go back to South Africa for a few days to fulfil our wedding duties, so it was brilliant. (On honeymoon) Unfortunately, we only had a one day honeymoon break, that was the day after the wedding and then I had to fly out early morning the next day. Unfortunately, she is not with me now, she is going to spent a couple of extra weeks in South Africa, just spend some time with family and friends and then straight through to New Zealand. (On being ready to play again) I think it has been all good really, I have felt quite connected to the squad and felt a part of it all the way, Flem (Stephen Fleming) has been really good with his communication, quite clear and kept saying to me to keep training with purpose, keep making sure you're ready, there might be an opportunity that presents itself, I might get that chance tonight. I'm just looking forward to getting out there again, feels like I haven't played in a while, just getting into that match mindset and hopefully contributing to the team.
MS Dhoni: You'll definitely see me in the yellow jersey, whether it is this one, or some other one, you never know. You need to realise the current situation. We have dropped catches, those are the things you want to omit. Those are the areas you need to work on. We have a couple of changes. Bravo and Dube are out. Devon and Simarjeet Singh are in.
Kane Williamson: We are going to bowl first. For us we have done it something well, we'll try to make use of the conditions with the ball. It was a close game, today is another opportuntiy as a team. We are playing with the same team.

We're back at the MCA stadium in Pune and we're playing on the same pitch that was used a couple of nights ago. It turned out to be a slow track, it was difficult for the batters to time when the bowlers were on the slower side. It was gripping and the pitch was spongy - but today, the grass has been shaved off and the soli has been rolled, so there will not be spongy bounce and there might be less grip, it isn't as abrasive either and so should come to the bat better. Batting first might not be a bad idea on this track, reckons Deep Dasgupta, in his pitch report.
His background adds romance to the story. From Kashmir, a son of a fruit-seller, a boy who began as a net-bowler, and who is yet to play for the country. What he offers is hope, and his emergence upholds the cherished belief that in sport, particularly cricket at least, an Indian with a talent will be identified, nurtured, and celebrated — regardless of class, race, religion, region or language.

Ambati Rayudu has scored 540 runs against the Sunrisers Hyderabad.
CSK Probable XI: Robin Uthappa, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Moeen Ali, Ambati Rayudu, Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (C/WK), Dwaine Pretorius, Dwayne Bravo, Mukesh Choudhary, Maheesh Theekshana.
SRH Probable XI: Kane Williamson (C), Abhishek Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram, Nicholas Pooran, Shashank Singh, Washington Sundar, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natarajan, Marco Jansen, Umran Malik.
CSK are hanging by a thread in the competition in the second last position with just four points from eight games and in Malik a bigger threat awaits their already- floundering batting unit.
The right-arm tearaway pacer has been the talk of the ongoing IPL as he clocked over 150 kmph to register all the top five fastest deliveries this season. He has so far picked up 15 wickets from eight matches at a strike rate of 12.00.
