Chennai Super Kings beat the Sunrisers Hyderabad side by 6 wickets

The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) continued their undefeated streak in the UAE leg of the IPL by defeating the ‘Orange Army’ with 6 wickets to spare. Batting first, the SRH side could only post a total of 134 runs on the board.

Josh Hazlewood and Dwayne Bravo scalped 5 wickets between them for the MS Dhoni-led side to constantly apply the brakes on the opposition. In reply, the CSK openers, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Faf du Plessis put on a match-winning partnership of 75 runs for the first wicket.

Even though CSK lost a few quick wickets after that, MS Dhoni and Ambati Rayudu stayed till the end to finish the job. Dhoni finished off the match in his trademark style, by smashing a six off the bowling of Siddharth Kaul.

The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are now comfortably placed at the top of the points table and have won 9 out of the 11 matches that they have played. The Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) outfit is languishing at the bottom of the points table, and has emerged victorious in only 2 out of its 11 games.
