In an attempt to clear the ropes, the Gujarat batters are giving away their wickets to the CSK bowlers. Azmatullah Omarzai holed out to Rachin Ravindra off Tushar Deshpande’s bowling and then Mustafizur got rid of Rashid Khan in the very next over. CSK are just 3 wickets away from a win.

GT: 121/7 in 16.2 overs

Matheesha Pathirana catches the big fish as Sai Sudharsan falls for 37. Fuller delivery, Sudharsan lofts but Rizvi dives forward at long-on dives to take a clean catch.

GT: 103/4 in 13 overs

Ajinkay Rahane showcases his athleticism, takes a phenomenal diving catch to dismiss dangerous David Miller. Tushar Deshpande bowls a fuller one, Miller flicks flat in the air. Rahane dives forward and pouches it safely at deep mid-wicket.

Sai Sudharsan and David Miller are taking their chances as the asking rate goes up to as high as 12.67 per over. Both of them hit a boundary each against Mustafizur, picking up 13 runs from the over.

GT: 93/3 in 11 overs

Here’s the grab that sent the Chepauk crowd in a frenzy.

Matheesha Pathirana is back but not in the best of sorts. The right-arm Malinga-like pacer leaks 10 runs in his opening over. CSK are back in the huddle to mull over what to be done next as GT need 140 runs to win.

GT 67/3 after 9 overs.

Oh MS Dhoni… you beauty! The fittest man on the ground and there he is. Diving full length to his right to take a stunning catch and Vijay Shankar walks back. Chepauk gets mental. Fuller delivery, moving away, Shankar drives but edges it and the rest is history.

GT: 56/3 in 7.5 overs

Deepak Chahar strikes again to get rid of dangerman Wriddhman Saha and GT’s chase will be anchored by two new batters – Vijay Shankar and Sai Sudharsan. The visitors have lost their openers inside the Powepay with a long way to go.

GT: 35/2 in 5 overs

Deepak Chaha draws first blood as he traps Shubman Gill in front. Slower ball, short of a length, misses, raps Gill on the back leg. The GT captain reviews but finds three reds in the ball tracker.

GT: 28/1 in 2.5 overs

Chahar to Saha – 4, 4!

Saha dances down and smashes Chaha for a one-handed four to deep extra cover. The veteran wicketkeeper-batter follows with another one through backward square leg.

GT: 27/0 in 2.2 overs

Wriddhiman Saha on fire again he smashes a couple of boundaries to the Purple Cap holder Mustafizur Rahman as GT collects 10 runs from the second over.

The second innings begins with Gill and Saha walking out to bat as they begin GT’s chase of 207. Deepak Chahar opens the CS attack. The right-arm quick starts his spell decently until getting hit for a six off the last ball by the GT skipper.

GT: 7/0 in 1 over

It was a brilliant batting display by the home side. Rachin Ravindra set the tone followed by the skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad. Despite both the openers missing out on their fifties, Shivam Dube took charge once again and brought up his first fifty of the season. As the death overs came around, Dube was dismissed but Sameer Rizvi chipped in with a quick cameo as CSK raced past the 200-run mark.

In the final delivery of the over, Mohit Sharma goes for the short delivery with lesser pace here. Jadeja got the single there and Mitchell was racing back for the double but Jadeja had no interest in going back and was run-out.

Mohit Sharma gets his man as Sameer Rizvi finds the fielder at the mid-wicket area. Was not able to time this as well there and an easy catch for David Miller. A brilliant cameo nonetheless and we have witnessed what this young man is all about.

Sameer Rizvi is out in the middle and he has made a big statement on his first batting innings. Goes for the slog sweep to clear the boundary at square leg with ease.

Rashid Khan has come in to bowl at the death overs and he has delivered the big wicket of Shivam Dube. The googly and a bit wide. Dube does not get all of it and goes for an easy catch to Vijay Shankar.

CSK vs GT Live Score, IPL 2024, Chennai Super Kings vs Gujarat Titans: CSK 183/3 in 18 Overs: FIFTY! 

Another great shot by Shivam Dube who picks up the slower delivery from Mohit Sharma. Picked up on the variation and times it to clear the boundary towards the covers.

He follows it up with the double to bring up a fine fifty. The left-hander has been in fine touch with the bat and has grown to become a reliable player for CSK.

CSK vs GT Live Score, IPL 2024, Chennai Super Kings vs Gujarat Titans: CSK 171/3 in 16.5 Overs; FOUR!

Cheeky from Daryl Mitchell there as he goes for the ramp shot which goes over the third-man fielder for runs to pick up the pace in the over. The Kiwi all-rounder has gone at a run-a-ball pace so far but will be expected to go big real soon.

CSK vs GT Live Score, IPL 2024, Chennai Super Kings vs Gujarat Titans: CSK 165/3 in 16 Overs: FOUR! 

Dube gets lucky there as Mohit Sharma looked to close out the over on a positive but gets the pull-shot just right to beat the fielder at the fine-leg region for the boundary.

Shivam Dube has looked unstoppable this tournament. He also seems to have put away the short-ball woes he had earlier as well. Got the boundary off Spencer Johnson which was pulled towards the backwards square-leg boundary ropes.

This was followed by a short delivery which was timed perfectly and pulled over the fine-leg boundary ropes for the maximum.

Shivam Dube is in red-hot form today. Not many can play reverse-sweeps of Rashid Khan. He gets the sweep shot on point to send it past the fielder at fine-leg. Got lucky there as the fielder put in the dive but guided the ball straight to the ropes.

Dube finishes off the over with another fine swing which is hit towards the long-on region for the maximum to close out the over.

Spencer Johnson has his first wicket of the evening and it is the big fish, Ruturaj Gaikwad who departs becoming the second batter to miss out on his fifty. A shorter delivery which the CSK skipper looked to pull but seems to have gotten a faint inside-edge which carried to the keeper.

The new batter Shivam Dube goes on the offensive right away as he attacks R Sai Kishore to get the maximum. Clobbered it towards the long-on region to clear the ropes.

Spencer Johnson who comes into the attack, gets punished right away as Ruturaj gets one towards the mid-wicket area as the ball races away for the maximum. A lot of pace on offer and along with the short length, it made it easier to get the pull shot on point.

Gaikwad goes after the Aussie once again as he gets the lofted straight drive perfectly to find the ropes once again to get the boundary and make it 12 runs in the over.

CSK vs GT Live Score, IPL 2024, Chennai Super Kings vs Gujarat Titans; CSK 88/1 in 8.2 Overs; FOUR!

Rahane gets four runs there as a misunderstanding between the man at mid-wicket and square-leg who come towards each other to chase the ball. Looks to have been Vijay Shankar and David Miller. Both men left the ball for each other and Rahane and Ruturaj went ahead and ran all four runs.

There it is, Gujarat Titans have the wicket they were hunting for. Brilliant presence of mind from the veteran keeper, Wrridhiman Saha to enforce the stumping. Clipped the pads of the batter and went through but the keeper reacted and clipped the bails to get the wicket.

Rachin Ravindra 46(20) st W Saha b. R Khan

Another fine shot by Ruturaj Gaikwad. An exquisite cover drive which is just punched, but races away for the boundary. The GT skipper looked to chase after the ball but was unable to get his dive in on time to save those runs.

Rachin Ravindra goes big yet again as he heaves one towards the long-on for the maximum. He punishes the shortish delivery as well for the boundary slapped towards the covers.

Ruturaj also joins in with the boundary as he plays the shortish delivery towards the third-man with a late cut for four runs. The fielder looked to put the dive but was unable to save the boundary.

Azmatullah is back for his second over. Rachin punishes the shortish delivery with a pull towards the square-leg ropes for the boundary. Seems to have gone for the inswinger but it was too short and smacked away.

Rachin follows with another fine shot as he punches it straight past the bowler for another boundary in the over.
