Suresh Raina destroyed Punjab at the Wankhede Stadium seven years ago
The Chennai Super Kings battled the Punjab Kings at the Wankhede Stadium in the Qualifier 2 match of IPL 2014. Punjab posted 226/6 on the board, thanks to a magnificent century by Virender Sehwag.
In reply, the Super Kings got off to a flying start, courtesy of Suresh Raina's 25-ball 87. Unfortunately, Raina got run out and the Punjab Kings didn't allow Chennai to bounce back post his dismissal. CSK finished with 202/7 in 20 overs, falling short by 24 runs.
CSK will look forward to avenging that defeat when they meet the Punjab Kings at the Wankhede Stadium tonight.
