IPL-17 | Gaikwad's fifty leads struggling CSK to 162/7 against PBKS
The Hindu
Harpreet Brar and Rahul Chahar put the skids on CSK
Ruturaj Gaikwad braved a sluggish Chepauk pitch and accurate Punjab Kings spinners to make a solid fifty but Chennai Super Kings could only post a modest 162 for seven in their IPL match in Chennai on Wednesday.
Once they were asked to bat first, skipper Gaikwad (62, 48b, 5x4, 2x6) and his opening partner Ajinkya Rahane (29, 24b) added 61 runs for the opening wicket but they consumed 49 balls for it.
There were flashes of intent too in their alliance, though.
Gaikwad played a fine upper cut off Arshdeep Singh for a boundary over the slips and Rahane creamed three fours in a row off Sam Curran, including a lovely cover drive.
But they were too far and few in between to make a real impact.
The slide of CSK began once PBKS brought their spinners on immediately after the Power Play that yielded 55 for no loss.
Rahane tried to slog sweep Harpreet Brar but his skier ended in the hands of Rilee Rossouw in the deep.
