And of course, Kolkata continue doing Kolkata things and send Narine in at four.

Whisper it quietly, but Thakur has been surprisingly effective with his accuracy and variations this year. Has the lack of security around his spot lit a fire in him?

I could understand that if they lost two in the first over and still wanted to maximise the powerplay but in the 9th over? I suppose he did at least score quickly.

What an epic collapse, last 5 overs 39/6. Wow! Kolkata always will find a reason to lose. Narine at 4 was a good decision because that made sure that quicks complete their quota, but it dint work. 168 is not a huge total, we are atleast 30 runs short. If only CSK can collapse.

Narine should be on the bench. There is no reason for a red hot Morgan to bat lower than him. OK, it failed today, but Morgan should be a fixture at 4 and Russell should be kept for 6-7 overs. His position need not be fixed but his situation should.[DOUBLEPOST=1602089134][/DOUBLEPOST]I'd just like to say that a huge amount of respect to Ashwin & Ponting for sorting out the 'mankad.' I think Ashwin has made his intentions clear and batters need to stop cheating about this. No need to crib after. Had this been done without a warning, I think the internet would have collapsed.

Loving the DJs at the games.

Think I just heard the Game of Thrones theme.

Looks like MS has given some sort of tonic to his batters. Clear intent last two games. They bat till 11 today. Beware CSK if they put it across the line today. Beware![DOUBLEPOST=1602089761][/DOUBLEPOST]

Hope he took some tonic himself as well.

Even Ashwin tweeted about the same.

Please tell Jadhav that required run rate is 20+

I have not seen a player as pathetic as Kedar Jadhav, dint deserve a place in Indian team, has not place in CSK. He single handedly lost this game for CSK. Why was Bravo not sent up before him! What is the use of playing Bravo when he is doing nothing in the team. CSK team management needs to think this through.

Happy we got past the collapse and won this match. [HASHTAG]#KorboLorboJeetbo[/HASHTAG]

CSK are back!

 

[Bevab]

Gotta say that amidst all of the criticism, saving Narine for the later overs was a genius move by DK.

Him denying a single in the first ball while Jadeja scores three boundaries in the last three balls should tell the team that he should be dropped. No more excuses.

The intent was much better today but individual mistakes and some very good captaincy alongside quality bowling sealed the deal. As I've always said, when you match Chennai's strategic thinking or come close enough to it for your team's quality to make the difference, Chennai are bound to lose. There simply isn't enough star power in this team.

Jadhav deserves a place in test team.
