Yash Thakur to Dhoni, out Caught by Chahal!! Nervous smile from Shreyas. Meanwhile Yash Thakur has his arms raised in triumph. Was a poor delivery, low full-toss down leg, short fine-leg was inside, Dhoni did not go for it full-blooded, just tried to help it fine and found Chahal. A fumble the first time but he hangs on the 2nd time. That should be the game then. Dhoni c Chahal b Yash Thakur 27(12) [4s-1 6s-3]

Arshdeep Singh to Dhoni, SIX, this is a half-volley but what hands from Dhoni. He gets under this outside off and lofts flat over deep extra-cover, Arshdeep Singh just missed the yorker length and paid the price for it. CSK still in this

Arshdeep Singh to Dhoni, FOUR, no-one at deep backward square-leg and Dhoni gets four. Dug in short on the stumps, Dhoni swivels on the pull and hits it into the gap, Arshdeep Singh tried the change-up but Dhoni was ready for it
18.2
Arshdeep Singh to Dhoni, 1 run, dropped again by Yash Thakur at backward point. Full and well wide outside off, Dhoni reaches for it and slices the drive, easy catch to his right for Yash but he drops it, the catching has been woeful to say the least tonight
18.2
Arshdeep Singh to Dhoni, wide, wide yorker but way too wide outside off, left alone and wide taken

Ferguson to Dhoni, SIX, the original decision of no-ball has to be overturned. A high full-toss on middle, Dhoni swings and the fat top-edge takes it over Prabhsimran and the fence. They check for the height - 1.01m to 0.98m and Ferguson gets away

Ferguson to Dhoni, SIX, a knuckle-ball on a length outside off, Dhoni gets forward and powers it over long-off. That is a meaty blow and CSK need more of this
17.3
Ferguson to Dhoni, leg byes, 1 run, looked close but umpire Abhijit Bhattacharya gives it not out. It's ump's call on hitting. Very full and angled in on leg-stump, Dhoni heaves and misses, hit on the back leg and Prabhsimran was the one who was convinced, but it was not to be. Stoinis would have got Dhoni with a direct-hit from short third man. Replays show that Dhoni was taking it easy and did not expect the throw to come to his end, nearly caught short
17.1
Ferguson to Dhoni, leg byes, 1 run, full and fired on the pads, Dhoni flicks and misses, a legbye to backward square-leg, going down leg
16.4
Chahal to Dhoni, 1 run, flat and short of length delivery on middle, Dhoni goes on the back foot and tucks it to deep mid-wicket
16.1
Chahal to Dhoni, 1 run, they have kept Chahal back to bowl only at Dhoni I suppose. A flat length delivery on middle, Dhoni goes on the back foot to punch, thick inside-edge goes down to the fine-leg region
15.6
Ferguson to Dhoni, 1 run, big mix-up and the run-out chance goes. Both batters in the middle of the pitch. Prabhsimran is not happy, he wanted the throw to come to him, flicked to mid-wicket, Dhoni sets off, Conway does too, then the former stops, Conway too does the same, both are in the middle of the pitch, mid-wicket has time to aim but misses with the direct-hit. Conway would have been out as the throw was to his end
