In the end, it was MS Dhoni winding back the clock as the CSK captain hit the winning runs with a six.Ruturaj and du Plessis added 75 runs for the opening stand to dominate SRH bowlers. However, SRH managed to pull things back after Ruturaj fell to Jason Holder in the 11th over.Moeen Ali and Suresh Raina fell in quick succession following which du Plessis fell 5 short of another IPL fifty.However, MS Dhoni and Ambati Rayudu held their nerves to put on a 31-run stand before Dhoni finished it off in style.Josh Hazlewood and Dwayne Bravo hurt SRHEarlier in the day, Chennai Super Kings came up with another clinical bowling effort as senior pacers Josh Hazlewood and Dwayne Bravo picked up 5 wickets between them to restrict Sunrisers Hyderabad to 134 for 7 in 20 overs.Hazlewood, who is looking to hit peak form in the shortest format of the game before the T20 World Cup, got the big wicket of Jason Roy for 2 as early as the 4th over. It was a disappointing end for the England opener who had provided the much-needed impetus to SRH after replacing David Warner in their previous match — a win over Rajasthan Royals.Wriddhiman Saha took on the aggressor’s role in the powerplay and he did well to take Sunrisers to 41 for 1 at the end of the powerplay.However, Dwayne Bravo provided the big breakthrough, getting Kane Williamson out LBW with a superb outswinger. Things went downhill from thereon for Sunrisers as young Priyam Garg fell early.Just when Saha was looking to get to a fifty and keep the scoreboard moving, he played across the line to Ravindra Jadeja and gave MS Dhoni his 100th catch for CSK.Youngsters Abhishek Sharma and Abdul Samad added the much-needed impetus to SRH’s innings with a handy 25-run stand but Hazlewood snapped the partnership and handed a double blow to Sunrisers removing both the youngsters in the same over.Rashid Khan did his best with the bat, hitting a 13-ball 17 after Jason Holder’s early exit but SRH fell at least 15-20 run short of a competitive total.
