Chennai Team
Chennai made a steady start in the chase but it did not last long as they lost three wickets for 44 runs. Faf continued his top form but he didn't get the enough support from the other hand. The middle order shattered against the run rate pressure and the quality spin from Delhi. Kedar tried to carry the innings but he couldn't accelerate when it requird the most. Chennai could score only 131 runs after losing 7 wickets and lost the match by 44 runs. The middle-order trauma is scaring Chennai and they're standing on the shouler of Faf who is the only consistent player this season. This time, the lack of two players Suresh Raina and Harbhajan Singh is definitely visible in the team, while Chennai's compact batsman Ambati Rayudu is also out due to injury but he will be back for the next affair against Hyderabad.
Chennai Playing11:
Murali Vijay, Shane Watson, Faf du Plessis, Ruturaj Gaikwad, MS Dhoni (c & wk), Kedar Jadhav, Ravindra Jadeja, Sam Curran, Piyush Chawla, Josh Hazlewood, Deepak Chahar
