Both Dhoni and Kohli didn't have a great outing with the bat. While Dhoni only faced a ball and remained unbeaten on 1, Kohli departed for a four-ball six in RCB's mammoth run-chase. Dhoni, in addition, held on to two catches while he dropped a sitter early in the second innings.

The match went down to the wire but CSK held their nerves, despite some sloppy fielding all throughout, and bowled some tight overs in the end to win by eight runs in a high-scorer. With this win, CSK occupy the third spot in the points table -- three victories from five games -- whereas RCB are languishing at the seventh spot with only two triumphs from equal number of encounters.
