Match Commentary
Anshul Kamboj to Shashank Singh, 1 run, length delivery around leg, Shashank swings hard and drags it off the inner half to deep backward square
Anshul Kamboj to Shashank Singh, wide, short of length down leg, Shashank attempts to help it along and does not connect. CSK have reviewed. It is for a wide call. Samson suggested they have two reviews, so why not! Gaikwad signals the "T". Shashank did not move nor did the ball hit anything on the way to Samson. The onfield decision stays.. The review is lost
Anshul Kamboj to Shashank Singh, 2 runs, full and at the stumps, Shashank flicks it in front of square and picks up couple more
Anshul Kamboj to Shashank Singh, FOUR, low full toss outside off, Shashank has to reach and he does so, opens the bat face and slices the drive square on the off-side. The two fielders in the deep are at deep backward point and deep extra cover
12 off 12. Still Punjab Kings' game to lose. They still have Jansen and Bartlett to come, and they are no mugs with the bat. Kambhoj to bowl the 19th
Matt Henry to Shashank Singh, 1 run, low full toss outside off, Shashank drives to sweeper cover and retains strike
Matt Henry to Shashank Singh, FOUR, another edge, another boundary. The plan is to bowl wide and make the batters hit to the longer side, but at the moment the outside-edge is flying to the rope. Shashank throws everything behind the big shot and the edge flies over short third
Matt Henry to Shashank Singh, 2 runs, in the air and safe. Full and slanted outside off, Shashank goes up and over extra cover. Not quite off the middle and hence the ball drops in no man's land, couple more
Matt Henry to Marcus Stoinis, 1 run, full toss around off, Stoinis mistimes the drive to the left of Henry and he fumbles, single conceded
Matt Henry to Marcus Stoinis, FOUR, not where he intended but Stoinis won't mind it. Full and angled across, Stoinis throws the kitchen sink on the drive and gets a thick outside-edge, the ball flies wide of short third and races to the fence
Marcus Stoinis, right handed bat, comes to the crease
Matt Henry to Nehal Wadhera, out Caught by Noor Ahmad!! Hang on! Is there still life left in this contest? Chennai Super Kings and their fans certainly believe. The Chepauk has found its voice again. Fuller ball slanted across, Wadhera shimmies down and drives it uppishly, straight to extra cover and Noor makes no mistake. Back to back wickets for CSK. Nehal Wadhera c Noor Ahmad b Matt Henry 10(9) [6s-1]
Matt Henry to Nehal Wadhera, THATS OUT!! Caught!!
Matt Henry [3.0-0-42-1] is back into the attack
Shashank Singh, right handed bat, comes to the crease
Anshul Kamboj to Shreyas Iyer, out Caught by Rahul Chahar!! Kamboj strikes back! But it might be too late for Chennai Super Kings. The wide line finally pays off. Kamboj angles it across from round the wicket, the length is full but not quite in the yorker zone, Iyer reaches for it and mistimes the loft. These are big square boundaries at Chepauk and Iyer does not get enough to clear sweeper cover, Chahar settles under it and takes it safely. A fine knock from the captain comes to an end. Shreyas Iyer c Rahul Chahar b Anshul Kamboj 50(29) [4s-4 6s-3]
Anshul Kamboj to Shreyas Iyer, THATS OUT!! Caught!!
Anshul Kamboj to Shreyas Iyer, no run, shortens the length and angles it across, Iyer takes it on and has a slash, but the extra bounce takes it over the top-edge and the ball thuds into Samson's mitts
Anshul Kamboj to Shreyas Iyer, no ball, yorker around leg-stump, Iyer moves inside the line and misses the glance. Excellent take by Sanju Samson behind the stumps - he dives to his left and gloves it with one hand. But Kamboj has overstepped. Free-hit coming up..
Anshul Kamboj to Shreyas Iyer, no run
Anshul Kamboj to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR, fifty for Iyer. He missed out in the first game but not in the first away game. He's taking his team over the line. Very similar delivery to the previous one - yorker outside off, but this time Iyer decides to go aerial, he goes up and over with the slice, clears Henry at short third comfortably and he reaches the milestone
Anshul Kamboj to Shreyas Iyer, no run, dropped! That needs to be taken. Henry is quite fine at short third - almost at fly slip position. Kamboj goes for the wide yorker, Iyer bends down and slices it with an open bat face. The ball just carries to Henry and he does not hang on. Just gets his fingertips and the catch goes down
Anshul Kamboj to Shreyas Iyer, no run, Punjab Kings lose a review. Kamboj nails the wide yorker, Iyer moves across and fails to dig it out. He thought it was a away from the marker and decided to challenge the onfield call
Punjab Kings review! It is for a non-wide call. Iyer reckons it has crossed the guideline outside off. Let's see.. He did move. But was it after the ball had been released? The ball is inside the revised marker. Fair delivery.
Anshul Kamboj to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR, excellent placement! Kamboj comes round the wicket, angles the full delivery across, but Iyer is up for it, he walks to the off-side and whips off his pads towards cow corner, beats the fielder in the deep and collects the boundary
Anshul Kamboj [2.0-0-22-1] is back into the attack
Timeout! Punjab Kings need 33 from 24 balls. They have this in the bag unless there's a dramatic collapse in the final four overs. Iyer is well set and Wadhera just needs to support his skipper. CSK look down and out. Can someone conjure up a bit of magic for them?
Rahul Chahar to Nehal Wadhera, no run, googly outside off, turns away and Wadhera misses the big swipe across the line

Rahul Chahar to Nehal Wadhera, 1 run, eased to long-on
Rahul Chahar to Nehal Wadhera, SIX, Wadhera tees off and sends it sailing over the rope. Punjab Kings are on course for their second win of the season. Floated up, lands right in the slot and Wadhera brings out the long handle, lofts down the ground and leaves the long-on fielder ball-watching
Rahul Chahar to Shreyas Iyer, 1 run, googly on off, Iyer waits and works it with the spin to long-on
Rahul Chahar to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR, Iyer has turned it on in the last few overs. He's taken over from Connolly. Short and outside off, Iyer cuts it square on the off-side and Sarfaraz can't make the stop. He gets around from sweeper but can't prevent the boundary, allows it to escape under him
Rahul Chahar [3.0-0-32-0] is back into the attack
Matt Henry to Shreyas Iyer, 1 run, full toss at the stumps, Iyer skews it off the outer half to sweeper cover
Matt Henry to Shreyas Iyer, SIX, smashed! Short of length outside off, sits up nicely for Iyer to play the pull, he had the width to have a free swing of his hands, nails the pull flat and wide of deep mid-wicket
Matt Henry to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR, nicely done! Slower ball bowled into the pitch, Iyer waits and ramps it over short third. There was no pace but Iyer just had to clear the inner ring which he managed to do with ease
Matt Henry to Shreyas Iyer, no run, very full delivery around off, Iyer squeezes the drive to extra cover, straight to Gaikwad
Matt Henry to Shreyas Iyer, 2 runs, full pitcher outside off, Iyer drives wide of long-off and Dube fumbles, not the first time today, concedes the extra run
