R Jadeja to M Tiwary, OUT! Maybe the quietest of appeals I have seen but Dhoni was very confident and the umpire agrees with him. Jadeja strikes on his very first ball. This is flatter and outside off, it turns away a little. Manoj goes for the slog sweep but it seems to have taken some part of the bat and goes towards Dhoni who takes it on the second attempt. There is a muted appeal and after a thought the umpire raises his finger. Timely wicket for Chennai as this partnership was starting to look dangerous. Tiwary walks back after getting a start. Also replays later on show, it had taken the bottom edge off the bat.

D Bravo to D Miller, The batsman works it down the leg side. They pick up a single. This also brings the 50-run stand up. A vital one as the two joined forces when Punjab were in trouble. Also it has come at a good pace but they need to carry on.

Score60 - 3

S Thakur to M Tiwary, Once again sloppiness in the field spoils the over! This is fuller on off, Tiwary drives it towards mid off. They go for a run. The fielder has a shy at the bowler's end but misses. The batsmen go for an overthrow. Bravo from the leg side fires it towards the keeper who fails to collect and they take another overthrow. Three runs in total. Poor from Chennai but good running by the two batsmen out there. They are looking out for every opportunity of a run and also taking it.
