PBKS vs CSK, IPL 2022 Highlights: Punjab Kings beat Chennai Super Kings by 11 runs, 6th loss for defending champions

CSK remain second to bottom while Punjab Kings remain sixth but closer to the top four. Jadeja spoke about improving on things and coming back but this tournament is pretty much over for CSK. It was quite a brilliant bowling performance from PBKS, particularly from Arshdeep Singh, Kagiso Rabada and Rishi Dhawan, who was playing his first IPL match in six years. 

The CSK skipper talks to the broadcasters. "I think we started very well, with the new ball we bowled in good areas, but I thought we gave away 10-15 runs in the last 2-3 overs and we didn't execute our plan very well. I think (Rayudu) was batting brilliantly, but as I said we could have restricted them under 170-175. (On the chase) I think not getting a good start in the first six, we're not putting runs on the board in the first six. So we need to improve on that and come back strong."

Fifth consecutive match at the Wankhede to be won by the side batting first. Jadeja hits Dhawan for a six off the fifth ball of that over but it mattered little by that point. That is loss number six for CSK and their playoff chances now look like a long hop to say the least. 

All credit to Rishi Dhawan, he bowls a wide after that six but then follows that up with a brilliant yorker. He then goes wide outside leg, Dhoni picks it up towards deep backward square. It is off the toe end of the bat and Bairstow runs in to take the catch. 

Dhoni c Bairstow b Dhawan 12 (8), CSK 168/6 in 19.3 overs

Short from Dhawan and Dhoni with an almighty heave. The ball goes sailing into the ground. How about this for a start to the over, 21 needed off five!

And Dhoni is on strike. “DHONI! DHONI!” chants all around the Wankhede. Rishi Dhawan has the ball in his hands. Here we go then!

Wide yorker from Arshdeep again but he has erred a little bit. Dhoni pounces on it and sends the ball belting along the ground to the ropes behind the bowler. 

Full, wide yorker from Arshdeep, Dhoni slashes at it with one hand off the bat. Rabada could've caught that if he ran in from the ropes but he didn't and he claims that he lost it in the lights!

Arshdeep Singh is back to bowl his last. He has given just 15 runs in his three overs, has been absolutely brilliant in restricting the CSK batters. Wonder how he would fare against the ultimate finisher here.

He has looked absolutely spazzed out, Rayudu, and it seems he had decided to go for everything or get out. That is exactly what he did, Rayudu goes for a tired heave, Rabada nails the yorked and takes the stumps. But the crowd at the Wankhede are going up as it is MS Dhoni who walks out to replace him. 

Rayudu b Rabada 78 (39), CSK 153/5 in 17.5 overs

Jadeja slog sweeps Rabada through square. Wonder how many times we would get to see something like that off the ace South Africa pacer. Rayudu looks absolutely famished at the other end. 

What an over that is from Arshdeep. Just six from it and that has brought the require scoring rate back over 13.5 for CSK. They need 41 to win off 18 and Rabada is going to bowl the 18th. 

Rayudu ends the over with a boundary. 23 runs from the 16th, CSK need 47 to win off 24. Rayudu has now reached 75 off 33. What an innings this is. 

Short and wide from Sandeep and Rayudu uppercuts it over third man! He is taking no prisoners today Rayudu and he is perfectly in the zone now. Where does Sandeep go from here, the third, fourth and fifth balls have all gone for sixes.  

The very next ball is a full toss nicely floating onto Rayudu's pads and he just picks it up and deposits it over the leg side boundary. CSK now need 57 to win off 26!

Rayudu sends Sandeep Sharma soaring into the stands over long on off the third ball of the 16th. His fourth six and he has now raced to 59 off 30. 

Full ball outside leg from Chahar that Jadeja takes a sweep at. It goes to point for one leg bye and there was a bit of an appeal from PBKS. Umpire took his time to say no and that may have prompted Agarwal to go for the review. Replays show that the ball was pitching several inches outside leg. 

“CSK! CSK!” chants ring around the Wankhede as Rayudu sends Chahar over that short leg side boundary for a maximum and races to his half century in just 28 balls. 

Close call for Rayudu there! Uppercuts Chahar and he just about clears Rishi Dhawan to send the ball to the boundary, six runs from his fifty now. 

Rayudu moves to 42 after hitting two back to back boundaries in the 14th. CSK need 85 to win from 36 balls now and they have their captain in the middle with Rayudu who looks very much in the mood today. 

Gaikwad had got a four off almost the same shot in the previous delivery. But Gaikwad miscues this and it goes high up in the air. Agarwal does well to keep it in his eyesight as he back pedals from mid-off and takes it safely. 

Gaikwad c Agarwal b Rabada 30 (27), CSK 89/4 in 12.3 overs

After the 11th produced 12 runs, just three from the 12th. 

Rayudu digging into Livingstone. He has raced to 28 off 13. He first sends the third ball of the 11th over just wide of backward point for four. Rayudu then sends the fourth high over midwicket for a six. CSK 81/3 after 11 overs. 

Rayudu upping the ante for CSK. The umpire points to his watch and so the third time out of the match is taken.  

Oh what a big wicket that is, Rishi Dhawan, face mask and all, lets out a roar. Angling in at off stump, just about 130kps but Dube gets his feet in a tangle. The ball takes an inside edge and crashes on to the stumps. 

Shivam Dube b Rishi Dhawan 8 (7), CSK 40/3 in 7 overs
