Match summary: Electing to bat, CSK were off to a flying start. It was three fine innings from Faf du Plessis (58), Shane Watson (36) and Ambati Rayudu (45*) that allowed the side to post an above-par total of 179/4. In reply, it was Dhawan, who played a stellar knock of an unbeaten 101, along with Axar Patel's cameo of five-ball 21 in the final over, which allowed DC to see it through, by five wickets. As a result, DC are back on top.
