Ruturaj Gaikwad falls for a low score again; Rabada with the early strike for Punjab Kings.Ruturaj scores this season: 0, 1, 1.

Jordan with a breakthrough now. He takes the wicket of Shahrukh Khan. CSK are coming back into the game now. PBKS 151/6 after 15.5 overs.
The momentum when he collected the ball seems to drag Dwayne Bravo towards the boundary ropes, careening the long-on-midwicket bend. But Bravo shifts his weight from the left-foot that was almost hugging the cushion to the right. He looks to tumble, but he does not. He then shuffles to his left-foot, then to his right. At one moment, he feels like he could stumble and is almost ready to fling the ball away, but with feline expertise, he keeps his body abreast the dreaded ropes, like running beside an abyss of dragons in Temple Run. Remarkably, it was all feet, no flapping or the arms or contorting the body for the elusive balance. Seems like he had put on his dancing shoes and spent hours choreographing for the ballerina by the boundary ropes.

Jitesh Sharma goes back to the pavilion. Pretorius picks the crucial wicket as Jitesh looks good. Uthappa takes an easy catch to dismiss Jitesh. PBKS 146/5 after 14.5 overs.
The dangerous Livingstone returns to the pavilion after scoring 60 runs. He looks good but CSK finally get a breakthrough. PBKS 115/4 after 11 overs.
Dhawan departs after scoring 33 runs. Dwayne Bravo picks the wicket. It's a slower delivery and Dhawan does the rest by hitting it in the air. PBKS 109/3 after 10 overs.
Unlike his trusted 50-over associate Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan is not six-savvy (332 to 889 in competitive cricket). Even when he plans to go over the ropes, he usually shimmies down the track to generate momentum and swings through the line, or sometimes makes room to hit over covers. There, mostly, is an amount of premeditation. But against Dwayne Bravo, he just stood in his crease, took a firm forward stride when he judged the ball was on the fuller side and just thumped him over long-on without any visible strain on his body or an exaggerated flourish, a six straight from the Caribbean manual of six-hitting.

What a shot by Dhawan. He walks down the pitch and times it to perfection against Dwayne Bravo. Punjab are going strong now. PBKS 102/2 after 9.2 overs.
Silvery streaks might have crept into MS Dhoni’s stubble and those once long locks like Samson, but his athleticism and anticipation remains untouched by the vagaries of time and age. The moment Chris Jordan, the bowler, tees off to gather the ball, dribbled to the leg-side by Shikhar Dhawan for a quick single, Dhoni begins his stump-ward sprint, with short, quick strides, spurting like a thoroughbred in his captain Ravindra Jadeja’s stable. He snaffles the throw, an attempted direct hit, with both hands and realising that he was short of time to whip off the bails, he lunges forward, doesn’t throw at the stumps, because he did not have time to remove the gloves and hence the risk of an inaccurate throw, but drops the ball onto the stumps, like when some prostrate when they meet an elder person. And at the end, let out a satisfied smile. An ageless smile after an ageless burst of athleticism.

Last over in the powerplay and now Shikhar Dhawan hits a huge six!!! Slower ball by Bravo and it's duly punished by Dhawan. Another four to deep extra cover in the next ball. Another four to end this over. PBKS 72/2 after 6 overs.
