Chennai Super Kings defeat Delhi Capitals by 77 runs
At the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Saturday, Chennai Super Kings defeated Delhi Capitals by a score of 77 runs to go to the IPL playoffs. CSK played well with the bat and the ball to secure a victory that may move them into the top two spots in the points standings with their hopes of making the IPL playoffs on the line. Ruturaj Gaikwad (79 from 50 balls) and Devon Conway (87 from 52 balls) stitched a 141 run partnership for CSK, effectively ending the match.As cameos, Shivam Dube and Ravindra Jadeja guided CSK to 223/3 after MS Dhoni's team won the toss and decided to bat.In retaliation, Delhi suffered the cheap losses of Prithvi Shaw, Phil Salt, and Rilee Rossouw, the last two falling to successive Deepak Chahar shots. Then, David Warner attacked and engaged in solo combat—a trend for the Delhi season—and all of Yash Dhull, Aman Khan, and Axar Patel received beginnings but were unable to build on them. By the end, Warner concedes 86 to a slower delivery from Pathirana. The last over included two wickets from Theekshana, who completed the task.
