Classic CSK performance at Chepauk. On a slow surface, they opted to bat first and posted 167 on the board. That turned out to be more than enough for the hosts. Deepak Chahar nipped out both the openers and a horrible mix-up resulted in Marsh's downfall. The visitors had lost their top three inside four overs on a slow surface even before MSD had introduced spin. Manish Pandey and Rossouw stitched a 59-run stand for the fourth wicket but that came at run-a-ball. The CSK spinners choked DC with spin and the visitors couldn't recover after that. Matheesha Pathirana was a touch expensive but he picked three wickets with his yorkers and change of pace.
