RR vs CSK highlights, IPL 2021: Dube, Jaiswal hit blazing fifties, RR beat CSK by 7 wickets to stay alive

WOW! SIX! Ruturaj Gaikwad hits maiden T20 hundred. It was the last ball of the innings, Gaikwad needed a six to get to the mark and guess what? He gets it. What a shot that was. CSK finish with 189/4 in 20 overs. 

After hitting 15 runs in the four balls, Jadeja has given strike to Gaikwad. He has two balls to score five runs and get to his maiden T20 century. 

FOUR! SIX! Jadeja showing how dangerous he can be at the back end of an innings. He knew Rahman will aim for the yorker, Jadeja bent down one knee, converted it into the full toss and flicks it for a six. 

CSK 167/4 with just one over to go. How many can they get? We have an interesting situation here, Gaikwad is batting on 95 but Jadeja is on strike. Rahman to bowl the last over

FOUR! Rahman was looking for the yorker, missed it slightly and it was enough for Jadeja to place it through the off side and get a four. CSK 154/4 after 17.5 overs.

SIX! Out of the park, quite literally. Some sound that made from his bat. Gaikwad is living a dream today and we are not complaining. A short one from Rahman, he pulls it deep into the grassy banks to move into the 90s, this is highest T20 score now. 

FOUR! The mid-off was up and Gaikwad takes full advantage of it. He is in some sort of mood today. Sakaria has a smile on his face. Yup, not much you can do when you have batsman in this kind of mood. 

OUT! Sakaria gets Rayudu for 2. He was looking to go big and rightly so but he chose the longest part of the boundary to clear and had to pain for it. Phillips takes a good catch in the deep mid-wicket fence. CSK 134/4 in 16.2 overs

SIX! That has gone miles! Gaikwad reaches 79 and this is some hitting! Short ball on middle and leg, Gaikwad pulls it over deep square leg for a maximum.

FOUR! That is an outstanding shot! Wow, we can look at this shot all day! Good-length ball on off, Gaikwad lifts it to long off and it seems that it has bounced before the ropes and the replays show that it has. A boundary.

FOUR! EDGY BUT CHENNAI WON'T MIND! Shortish ball around middle, Gaikwad goes on his knees and looks to pull but it goes off the top edge and it flies over the keeper for a boundary.

OUT! Tewatia the man again for RR. Moeen Ali is out for 21. Saw him coming down early. Tewatia is a smart cricketer. Moeen Ali stepped out and the RR spinner slipped it wide. Samson did well to gather it cleanly and then whip bails off. CSK 114/3 in 14.3 overs

SIX! SIX! Ruturaj Gaikwad is poetry in motion, even when he hits sixes. Simply superb footwork, outstanding timing and even better execution. How do you do it like this? This is jaw-dropping stuff from Gaikwad.

FIFTY for Ruturaj Gaikwad off 43 balls. His 7th in the IPL. CSK 100/2 in 13.4 overs.

FOUR! Top shot from Moeen Ali! Loopy ball on off from Markande, Ali dances down the track and then lifts it to long on for a boundary.

FOUR! Inside out again. Just beautiful from Gaikwad. He waits for the ball to arrive, leans forward to get the ballance right and then his lovely hands do the rest.

FOUR! A lofted extra cover drive that would make even the best in the buisiness proud. Flighted delivery from Markande and Gaikwad makes room, gets the balance right and just lifts it over the in-field to get a boundary. 

After going for runs in his first two overs with the new ball young left-arm seamer Aakash Singh comes back well. Gives only 4 runs in his third over. CSK 63/2 after 11 overs. 

OUT! Rahul Tewatia gets another one. A string of low scores for Raina continues as he falls early today as well. Tewatia bowls a full ball, on off. Suresh Raina gets on his knee and slog sweeps it to deep mid-wicket. It was without any pace so Raina had to generate some power behind it. He hits it high and straight in the hands of Shivam Dube at deep mid-wicket who pouches it nicely. Rajasthan in control after striking two quick wickets.

FOUR! Short from Tewatia, Gaikwad rocked back quickly and smashed it through mid-wicket for a boundary. 

Mayank Markande's return to the IPL is a good one. The leg-spinner gives only four singles in his first over. CSK 52/1 after 8 overs.

OUT! Rahul Tewatia gets Faf du Plessis stumped for 25. He cam dancing down the track too early, Tewatia just dragged his length back and du Plessis was stranded in the middle. Good work from Samson behind the stumps. CSK 47/1

Uh oh! There was a nasty collision between Faf du Plessis and Mustafizur Rahman. The CSK opener was looking for a quick single. Mustafizur was trying to get in line of the throw but du Plessis rammed into him in his quest to get into the crease.  Du Plessis looks a bit dazed, Mustafizur is up and running. 

SIX! Faf du Plessis picked the off cutter from Mustafizur early. He danced down the track and used his wrists to hit it over long on and into the crowd. The first six of this match. 

Faf du Plessis has decided to take the attack to Chetan Sakaria and he has found success. Two boundaries to start the fifth over. The first one was laced with perfect timing, the second one off a thick outside edge but the results the same. 

Rajasthan's most experienced and best bowler of this season, Mustafizur Rahman starts pretty well. Only 5 runs off the over. CSK: 25/0 after 4 overs.
