Brendon McCullum is a freak! #IPL #CSKvSRH #CSK #SRH
— Freddie Wilde (@fwildecricket) April 11, 2015

Brendon McCullum is 4th batsman to score 100 for CSK in IPLs. Other three: Murali Vijay (twice), Suresh Raina, Mike Hussey. #IPL

MS Dhoni, yellow shirt, helmet-less and bludgeoning sixes is one of the defining images of this cricketing era. #IPL #CSKvSRH #CSK #SRH
— Freddie Wilde (@fwildecricket) April 11, 2015

50-run partnership between Dhoni and McCullum. Of 50, McCullum has scored only 9.

I honestly think Dhoni's 6 just landed in my back garden.

Two gigantic sixes from Dhoni. CSK now 177 for 2.

The helicopters have started landing! Keep the whistles ready! #CSK #IdhuNammaSeason #whistlepodu

When Bopara is the pick of your bowlers, you probably are not a very good team. #IPL8

CSK taking Hyderabad to the cleaners. McCullum in blazing form, Dhoni just in. Score less than 200 would disappoint..
— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) April 11, 2015

MS Dhoni at No. 4. Now the world makes much more sense. #CSKvsSRH #PepsiIPL
— Shirin Sadikot (@ShirinSadikot) April 11, 2015

This #CSK batting line-up surely contravenes the basic human rights of the #SRH bowlers…#IPL #CSKvSRH
— Freddie Wilde (@fwildecricket) April 11, 2015

Dhoni is the new man in at the crease.

Raina gone!!! CSK 140 for 2 after 14 overs.

Brendon McCullum has really turned it on today. Big score coming up for #CSK #PepsiIPL
— Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) April 11, 2015

McCullum's last 10 balls: . 6 6 . 1 1 6 4nb 6 2. He's 79 off 46, CSK ate 133 for 1 in 13

A reminder at this point in time that Brendon McCullum has a Test match triple century & three doubles. #Legend #IPL #CSKvSRH #CSK #SRH
— Freddie Wilde (@fwildecricket) April 11, 2015

A six behind the keeper's head! How easy could that be? #McCullum #PepsiIPL

"Whatever Dhoni will say, I will do" - Ishant Sharma Dhoni - "Ok. Give us a no ball in every few minutes" #CSKvsSRH

McCullum brings up his fifty off just 38 balls.

Love how the Indian pacers bowl friendly slot balls to Raina.... #ipl #CSKvsSRH

Warner : Why are you bowling so many noballs ? Ishant : So that the Bangladeshis don't have any doubt whatsoever. #CSKvSRH

Super Smith unfortunately run out, but we have Super Raina in now! No worries Lions, keep whistling! #CSK #IdhuNammaSeason #whistlepodu

Ishant wishes he was on a beach somewhere...anyone know one he can go to...? #ipl #CSKvsSRH

Bowling free hits to Baz is right next to water-boarding and crossfit on my list of things to avoid at all costs.

CSK 65 for 0 after 7 overs! McCullum looking unstoppable at the moment.

Massive SIX from McCullum!

McCullum playing his 199th T20 match has 4th highest number of runs, 3rd highest number of 4s and 3rd highest number of 6s in T20s #CSKvsSRH
— Bharath Seervi (@SeerviBharath) April 11, 2015

CSK 11 for 0 after 2 overs. Both McCullum and Smith on 5*.

Head-to-head: CSK hold a 3-1 advantage over SRH

SRH XI: D Warner, S Dhawan, L Rahul, N Ojha, K Williamson, R Bopara, P Rasool, K Sharma, B Kumar, I Sharma, T Boult

CSK XI: B McCullum, DR Smith, S Raina, F du Plessis, R Jadeja, MS Dhoni, DJ Bravo, R Ashwin, M Sharma, I Pandey, A Nehra

Chennai Super Kings captain MS Dhoni won the toss and elects to bat first. It's going to be difficult for the fielders to field in this heat.

Captains of both the teams are out on the field for toss.
