It's not easy to face Bumrah and Boult to hit like that...Undoubtedly a class player but selectors made a huge mistake. #ambatirayudu

Both the batsmen used the powerplay overs and scored 58 runs off it. Once again Ms Dhoni used his tactics by bringing Shardul Thakur into the attack.
His plan paid off as the right-arm quick sent the opposition skipper back to the dressing room with the numbers of 35. Soon, Ravindra Jadeja and Moeen Ali removed the left-hander and Suryakumar Yadav in the back to backovers.
But, the situation gone worse for the Yellow army when the West Indies power hitter came to the crease. He started right from Jadeja's over and smashed three sixes off it.
The flamboyant all-rounder took away the game from CSK's hand won it single-handedly for his team. He was named as the Man of the Match for his blistering knock off 87 from just 34 deliveries which includes 6 boundaries and 8 sixes to his account.
