The game is going away from Chennai Super Kings here. The way the team is playing, they might end up finishing the game with 3-4 overs to spare. After 10 overs, it's 85/2. 

WICKET: Caught and bowled! Imran Tahir sends Williamson in his very first over! 

WICKET: Deepak Chahar bowls a slower one, and Warner just couldn't time it to perfection. Departs after a sensational fifty! 

ALERT: David Warner gets to his yet another IPL fifty! 

The openers David Warner and Jonny Bairstow are off to a blistering start. Chasing a small total, the duo has just put SRH on driver's seat. After 5 overs, it's 58/0. 

Both Rayudu and Jadeja are trying to finish Chennai Super Kings innings on a high! They are ticking ones and twos, and smashing timely boundary! They know that it isn't a 170 wicket, and are playing pragmatically. After 19 overs, it's 127/5. 

The onus is now on Ravindra Jadeja and Ambati Rayudu. The half side is back to the pavilion, and with 5 overs still to go, the duo will look to utilise their experience and finish the innings on high. After 15 overs, it's 102/5. 

WICKET: A slower one from Khaleel Ahmed and Sam Billings was little early in the short. The wickets are falling like a pack of cards for Chennai Super Kings!

WICKET: Just a slight nip and through to the keeper. Superb delivery by Vijay Shankar sends Faf du Plessis back to the pavilion. Now the battle will be between Ambati Rayudu and Vijay Shankar. Cricket fraternity around the world will be able to connect. 

WICKET: Knocked him over! Finally some respite in Sunrisers Hyderabad camp. Shahbaz Nadeem sends dangerous Watson back to the pavilion. 

The hosts are desperately in need of a wicket here. They tried to restrict the opposition at the start, but haven't been able to capitalize. After 9 overs, it's 70/0. 

The duo has started to open their arms and looking solid. Faf du Plessis has been the aggressor in this partnership. After 6 overs, 41/0.

The Chennai Super Kings is off to a cautious start against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Both Watson and du Plessis are taking their time before opening arms. After 3 overs, it's 10/0.

Chennai Super Kings: Shane Watson, Faf du Plessis, Suresh Raina(c), Sam Billings(w), Ambati Rayudu, Kedar Jadhav, Ravindra Jadeja, Karn Sharma, Deepak Chahar, Shardul Thakur, Imran Tahir



TOSS: Chennai Super Kings opt to bat

The toss is scheduled to happen in less than 60 minutes from now and this remains to be seen what will the winning captain choose. Going by the history of Hyderabad, batting second has been a little difficult, and the team winning the toss may well have a bat first. 

Hyderabad started the season with a loss against Kolkata Knight Riders but came strongly with winning three games on the trot, however, they journey post that has been challenging for them. This remains to be seen if they can change their fortunes against the top-seed side. For Chennai, a win here will fix their berth in playoffs. 

The two teams have had a different journey in IPL so far, with CSK managing to win seven out of eight games they have played, and SRH, on the other hand, has lost four out of seven games played.

Hello and a warm welcome. We are all set to witness another crackerjack of an encounter as Kane Williamson-led Sunrisers Hyderabad host Chennai Super Kings at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad.
