Batting first, Virat Kohli played a brilliant knock of 100 runs and was supported by Moeen Ali who scored a quick cameo of 66 runs in 26 balls to give a target of 214. Defending the target, Dale Steyn took two crucial scalps in the powerplay and was supported by Navdeep Saini and Marcus Stoinis to ensure a 10-run win for the team.

Table-toppers Chennai Super Kings are having a dream run in IPL’19 and have won seven of their nine matches. However, They were defeated by Sunrisers Hyderabad in the last encounter. Batting first, Faf Du Plessis was the top performer with bat scoring 45 runs and was supported by Watson and Rayudu to give a low target of 133 to SRH. Defending the target, Imran Tahir took two crucial scalps but was not enough leading to a 6-wicket loss for the team. CSK will hope for a quick return of Dhoni and Bravo and get another victory over RCB.
