Chennai Super Kings pulled off another thriller to defeat Royal Challengers Bangalore by 5 wickets on Wednesday.

 

 

Batting first, RCB scored a challenging 205/8 form their 20 overs with some help from Quinton de Kock - 53 (37) and star batsman Ab De Villiers - 68 (30). CSK bowlers Imran Tahir, Dwayne Bravo, and Shardul Thakur picked up two wickets each.

 

 

Chasing the huge target, CSK lost Shane Watson in the first over itself. CSK lost their wickets at regular intervals. Ambati Rayudu - 82 (53) and MS Dhoni kept the innings together with some sensible hitting through the middle overs. Unlike CSK's match against KXIP, this time, Dhoni - 70*(34) finished the match with his trade mark six over long on with two balls to spare.

 

 

This is the second time CSK has chased a 200+ target this season and third overall which is the highest  by any team in the IPL.
