CSK vs KXIP, IPL 2018 Live Cricket Score: Chennai Super Kings beat Kings XI Punjab by 5 wickets

A Rajpoot to du Plessis, Wide outside off, going away, let through.

Better... no fine leg now and he moves to second slip. But a ball too late?

A Rajpoot to du Plessis, EDGED, FOUR! Agonizing for the bowler. Sometimes one wonders - if you have to restrict the opposition in double figures, won't it be worth going with an all-attacking field? On a length outside off, du Plessis pushes at it but the ball lands, then seams away, takes the outside edge and goes - where? Where there is no man standing. At vacant second slip position. Towards the third man fence. Faf moves to 10 from 10 balls with his second boundary.

A Rajpoot to du Plessis, Terrific bowling. Rajpoot now channels this outswinger around middle and leg, Faf somehow manages to push it away towards mid off. Almost got a leading edge.

A Rajpoot to du Plessis, Loose............. a length ball outside off, swinging away, du Plessis hops and looks to slash but is comprehensively beaten.

A Rajpoot to S Raina, Down the leg side, tickled away towards fine leg for a single.

M Sharma to du Plessis, FOUR! But almost another one! This is on a length around off, this one sticks onto the surface a touch. Faf du Plessis checks his drive and it goes uppishly towards the left of Sharma. He sticks his hand out but can't reach to it. The ball races through mid off and into the fence. First boundary for Chennai. End of a successful over by Mohit.

M Sharma to du Plessis, Better by him! Goes full and on off, no swing though this time. Faf pushes it to mid off.

M Sharma to S Raina, Another short ball on middle, Raina tucks it around the corner for a run. Once again Mohit is slightly on the shorter side.

M Sharma to S Raina, Back of a length on off, Raina defends it onto the ground. Needs to go a little fuller here, the bowler needs to make use of the swing.

Suresh Raina walks in at no. 3.

M Sharma to A Rayudu, OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Sharma draws first blood and look at the Punjab players they are ecstatic. Brilliantly bowled. This is on a length around off, it pitches and then moves away from the batsman. Rayudu tries to defend but does not account for the movement away. The ball kisses the outside edge and goes into the mitts of Rahul who throws it up and appeals and the umpire agrees with him. Early wicket for the visitors and it is of the man who has been prolific for Chennai this season. Rayudu walks back for his first single digit score this season and it is game on here in Pune.

M Sharma to A Rayudu, Good length ball on off, Rayudu keeps it out.

Mohit Sharma to bowl from the other end.

A Rajpoot to du Plessis, A peach to end a very good first over by the bowler! Hits the length ball around off, it moves away late. Faf du Plessis plays inside the line and gets beaten.

For Punjab to qualify, they have to bowl Chennai out for 99. Whereas, if the home side wants to go on top, it needs to chase this target down within 17.4 overs.

A Rajpoot to du Plessis, Beaten for the second time in the over! The outswinger from off and on a length. Faf du Plessis tries to keep it out off the front foot but is done in by the late movement.

A Rajpoot to du Plessis, This is wide outside off, Faf makes a leave.

A Rajpoot to du Plessis, Goes for the magic delivery which swings from leg to off but this one does not move. Faf flicks it through backward square leg and bags a brace.
