#Match 30
Chennai super King won by 20 runs
CSK – 156/6 (20)
MI – 136/8 (20)
Player of the match – Ruturaj Gaikwad
It was one of the greatest comeback from CSK, because at one time Chennai were 24/4, probably even 24/5 with Rayudu injured, and they’ve found a way to win this by 20 runs. And it’s not that Mumbai have choked; they’ve clearly been outthought here. So the
law of momentum is a real thing, and Gaikwad and Bravo going nuts in the first innings at the death should convert even the staunchest of non-believers in this theory. Clearly that’s where this
game was won. Irrespective, Mumbai would have taken a target of 157 at the start. After all, all it needed was one big innings. But that’s where Dhoni shone through, with some funky fields, smart
bowling changes, drying up the singles, tying up the batsmen. It’s no surprise, when he does these things. Chahar was brilliant in the powerplay, Bravo in the middle, Hazlewood in his second spell,
and it did help their cause that Mumbai’s batsmen were keen to
swing at everything. Right, stick around, we’ll get you the presentations
