The three-time IPL champions kept on losing wickets at regular intervals as DC's spinners were simply brilliant.Axar Patel once again proved why he is rated highly as a T20 bowler with a couple of wickets.A fine half-century from Ambati Rayudu somewhat salvaged CSK as they reached a fighting total of 136-5 in their 20 overs. DC got off to a brisk start and had a strong powerplay, bringing the equation down to almost a run-a-ball.However, CSK bowlers also chipped in with wickets at crucial junctures that kept them in the game.At one stage, it looked like MS Dhoni and his men were favorites to win the conest. But Gowtham's dropped chance proved to be the deciding factor.All is not lost for Dhoni and his troops as they still have another opportunity to secure a top-two spot by doing well in their game against the Punjab Kings.
