CSK vs KKR Highlights, IPL 2024: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ravindra Jadeja Excel As CSK End KKR's Unbeaten Run
Chennai Super Kings beat Kolkata Knight Riders by seven wickets in their IPL 2024 match. CSK restricted Kolkata Knight Riders to a mere 137 for 9 after opting to bowl.
Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad (67) then scored an unbeaten half-century to anchor the chase while Shivam Dube slammed 28 off 18 balls to take CSK to their third victory of the season and end KKR's winning run. Earlier
Ravindra Jadeja (3/18) and pacer Tushar Deshpande (3/33) were the top performers with the ball for CSK. Skipper Shreyas Iyer top scored for KKR with a 32-ball 34.
Ruturaj Gaikwad is the first CSK skipper to score a half-century after MS Dhoni. Ravindra Jadeja was the only other player who has led CSK but he did not cross the 50-run mark even once during his tenure.
This has been exactly the innings that Ruturaj Gaikwad needed. The CSK skipper was missing a good innings in this year's competition till now and this will give him a lot of confidence. Few runs away from a much-deserved half century.
Third wicket for Tushar Deshpande and CSK have saved MS Dhoni the blushes. The catch miss did not cost CSK much as Andre Russell was caught in the deep.
4, 0, 0, 4, 4, 0 - Anukul Roy introduced into the attack but Ruturaj Gaikwad was up to the challenge. Three very impressive shots and CSK skipper is off to a flier. This is looking too easy for CSK.
