IPL 2021, PBKS vs CSK Latest Points Table Update: Riding on a four-wicket haul by pace bowler Deepak Chahar, Chennai Super Kings defeated Punjab Kings by six wickets to claim their first win in this season’s Indian Premier League.

The right-arm pace bowler’s spell (4/13 in four overs) restricted PBKS to 106/8 in 20 overs, a poor score on a Wankhede Stadium pitch that is good for batting. CSK had it easy as they reached the target in 15.4 overs, losing just four wickets, three of which came towards the end of the innings against the run of play.  The win was their first of IPL 2021 and with this, they moved to the second spot in the points table.
