CSK vs SRH, IPL 2021: A superb opening partnership between Ruturaj Gaikwad and Faf Du Plessis helped CSK register their fifth win in a row by seven wickets against SRH and climb to the top of the points table.
Ruturaj Gaikwad's cool quotient blended beautifully with Faf du Plessis' flamboyance as Chennai Super Kings (CSK) outsmarted Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by seven wickets in an Indian Premier League (IPL) match in Delhi on Wednesday. Gaikwad was calmness personified as he tore apart the Sunrisers attack during his 75 off 44 balls after Du Plessis (56 off 38 balls) launched the initial assault, making a target of 172 looking easier than it actually was. The win was CSK's fifth on trot which helped them leapfrog Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) to the top of the table while SRH stayed at the bottom. If Du Plessis shimmied down the track to loft left-arm spinner Jagadeesha Suchith over long-on for a six, Gaikwad would rock back and pull him over deep mid-wicket for a boundary. If Gaikwad's inside out lofted boundary off Suchith over extra cover was a treat, the use of crease to back-cut the bowler off the very next delivery was equally delectable.More Related News
