Batting first in this match, Chennai Super Kings scored 144 runs for six wickets. While Shivam Dubey scored the most unbeaten 48 runs for CSK, Conway played 30 runs and Jadeja played 20 short but important runs.
In response, the Kolkata team did not start well. Kolkata kept getting shocks one after the other. But when the innings came to the hands of captain Nitish and Rinku, both of them handled the front very well and made sure that they stayed on the field until the match completely went in Kolkata’s favor and something like this happened, Kolkata lost four wickets. Only achieved the goal. This victory of Kolkata has put a traffic jam on the points table. After reaching the last stage, it is becoming very difficult to say who will qualify this playoff.
