The young left-hander was the dominant partner in the stand although Williamson also chipped in with a six off Moeen Ali, lofted over the bowler’s head. Abhishek eased to his fifty with a single off Chris Jordan. In the same over, he smacked the CSK pacer for a six over long-on. The impressive partnership ended when Williamson gifted a simple catch to short extra cover off Mukesh Choudhary’s bowling.
The wicket did not cause Hyderabad to lose momentum, though. Rahul Tripathi (39* off 15) came in and pulled the second ball he faced for a six over fine leg. CSK could have had Abhishek’s wicket for 62. However, a diving Ravindra Jadeja dropped a catch at backward point off Dwayne Bravo’s bowling. The SRH opener celebrated the life by whacking Choudhary over his head for another six.

With only 34 needed off the last five overs, Tripathi decided to have some fun and carted Jordan for a six and two fours, with one of the boundaries coming off a no-ball. Abhishek’s fine innings ended when he miscued a slower ball from Bravo to long-off. There was nothing much to cheer for Chennai, though, as only the formalities remained by then.

SRH restricted CSK to 154 for 7 after winning the toss and bowling first. Washington Sundar (2/21) and T Natarajan (2/30) came up with impressive bowling spells to restrict Chennai. For the batting side, Moeen top-scored with 48 while skipper Jadeja played an impressive cameo of 23 in 15 balls.
CSK lost the in-form Robin Uthappa for 15 as he slog-swept the first ball from Sundar and ended up skying a catch. Ruturaj Gaikwad’s (16) poor run with the willow continued as he was cleaned up by Natarajan with a well-directed full ball that sneaked past the batter’s defense. At the end of the powerplay, Chennai were 41 for 2.
Two wickets in the Powerplay.

Ambati Rayudu and Moeen played a few impressive strokes and found some handy boundaries to lead Chennai’s fightback. In the 13th over bowled by Umran Malik, Moeen top-edged a quick delivery for six before finding a four to third man. Just an over ago, the bowler had dropped the left-handed batter at short third man.
Just as CSK seemed to be getting some momentum into their innings, Rayudu fell for a run-a-ball 27. He accepted an invitation from Sundar to go for a big hit but was only successful in finding long-on. In the next over, Moeen slapped Aiden Markram for a six over long-on but perished the very next ball while attempting another big hit.

Following two quick wickets, the momentum was back with SRH. Shivam Dube (3) also fell cheaply, guiding Natarajan to short third man. MS Dhoni’s (3) pull off Marco Jansen landed in the hands of fine leg as Chennai slipped further. A couple of meaty blows from Jadeja ensured they finished with a total in excess of 150.
