The match began with the promise of fireworks, but it was Ruturaj Gaikwad (69) and Shivam Dube (66) who truly set the stage on fire.

Yet, just when it seemed like CSK might fall short of a daunting total, MS Dhoni (20 runs off 4 deliveries) strode in and played a storming knock to power CSK to a daunting total of 206/4.
