IPL 2018: Twitter erupts as Chennai Super Kings win a thriller against Sunrisers Hyderabad

It was the match between best batting lineup vs the best bowling lineup. Chennai Super Kings locked horns with Sunrisers Hyderabad at the orange army”s home venue in the 20th match of this IPL.

Hyderabad after being badly defeated by KXIP in the last game started beautifully by restricting CSK for the lowest Powerplay score in this IPL but Chennai recovered to post a mammoth total of 182/3.

SRH were chasing the score without the opener and the best batsman Shikhar Dhawan and Ricky Bhui made his SRH debut.

Suresh Raina (53* off 43 balls) provided stability but it was the assault from Rayudu who smashed 79 off 37 balls who took the game away from SRH. MS Dhoni also struck some lusty blows in the end and propelled CSk”s score to 182/3.

Chahar broke the back of the chase with 3 early wickets but an incredibly gritty knock from captain Williamson and late assault from Yusuf Pathan along with Rashid Khan meant that match went onto the last ball with SRH needing 6 to win off the final delivery. Bravo bowled a brilliant yorker and CSK registered yet another close win I a nail-biting encounter.

Twitter went crazy in the latter stages of the match and hailed CSK as the best team of the tournament.
