Deepak Chahar continued to impress with his spell, claiming two more important wickets, including that of Axar Patel and Rilee Rossouw.
Despite Warner’s valiant efforts, DC failed to build a significant partnership. The turning point came when Ravindra Jadeja dismissed Yash Dhull, followed by Deshpande’s removal of Aman Hakim Khan. With Warner’s dismissal by Matheesha Pathirana in the 19th over and Maheesh Theekshana’s back-to-back wickets in the final over, DC’s innings crumbled to 146/9.
The match had begun with CSK Captain MS Dhoni winning the toss and opting to bat. Both teams retained their core players, with DC introducing Lalit Yadav and Chetan Sakariya and CSK naming Matheesha Pathirana, Mitchell Santner, Subhranshu Senapati, Shaik Rasheed, and Akash Singh as substitutes.
Gaikwad and Conway exhibited excellent chemistry in the initial overs, taking advantage of DC’s bowlers, especially Khaleel Ahmed and Lalit Yadav.
