DC vs CSK memes, IPL 2021: Top 10 funny memes from today's match
Chennai Super Kings suffered their second consecutive defeat in the IPL 2021 tonight at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Playing against the Delhi Capitals, the MS Dhoni-led outfit failed to defend a 137-run target and lost by three wickets.
Birthday boy Rishabh Pant called the coin toss right in tonight's Indian Premier League match and decided to field first. CSK got off to a good start as both openers Ruturaj Gaikwad and Faf du Plessis looked in decent touch. However, after DC dismissed both the opening batters, CSK's middle-order failed to continue the momentum.
DC reduced CSK from 39/1 to 62/4, with Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin and Anrich Nortje troubling the CSK batters. Moeen Ali's disappointing form continued in IPL 2021's UAE leg, while Robin Uthappa failed to make his presence felt in his first game for CSK.
A half-century from Ambati Rayudu helped the Chennai Super Kings reach 136/5 in 20 overs. MS Dhoni worked hard for his 27-ball 18. CSK's IPL captain could not hit a single boundary in his knock.
Chasing 137 to win, DC got off to a flier with Shikhar Dhawan scoring boundaries regularly. Although Deepak Chahar dismissed Prithvi Shaw early, Dhawan did not back off and attacked the CSK pacers. DC crossed the 50-run mark in the powerplay.
CSK bowlers bounced back in the second phase of the innings by taking wickets at regular intervals. Shardul Thakur turned the game in CSK's favor by dismissing both Ravichandran Ashwin and Shikhar Dhawan in the 15th over. However, an 18-ball 28* from Shimron Hetmyer denied CSK the win.
Substitute fielder Krishnappa Gowtham dropped a catch of Hetmyer in the 18th over and that proved to be costly.
