That's all from our side for this game. Switch over to Hyderabad where Mumbai are batting first against Sunrisers. See you there.
Harbhajan Singh is the Man of the Match.
Mark: "Not to put too fine a point on it, but that was possibly the worst managed chase in the IPL in a long time!"
7.38pm A comfortable win for Chennai Super Kings in the end despite fifties for KL Rahul and Sarfaraz Khan. The CSK spinners made the difference as expected, combining to take 61 for 4 off 12. Harbhajan Singh led the show with two in the second over of the innings. Rahul and Sarfaraz added 110 in 93 balls but couldn't kick on when it mattered. In the end, they were left with too may off two few and fell short by 22 despite five wickets in hand.
