In the run chase, CSK came close but eventually fell short, ending at 201/5.MS Dhoni batted up the order amid criticism regarding his lower batting position in the ongoing IPL season. Dhoni played a quickfire cameo, scoring 27 runs off 12 balls with a four and three sixes at a strike-rate of 225.However, he was dismissed on the very first ball of the final over in the chase and hence could not finish the game. His cameo eventually went in vain as Punjab Kings won the match.With this, CSK crashed to their fourth successive defeat. After winning their opening game of the season, they have struggled to win a single game. With just one win from five matches, they continue to languish in the bottom half of the points table.Yuzvendra Chahal surprisingly bowled just one over in this match where he gave away nine runs. However, it ended well for PBKS, and they notched up their third win from four matches.
