The last of this season's double-header is tomorrow, the first between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders, and the clash between Royal Challengers and Delhi Daredevils to follow. Do tune in tomorrow for the same. Till then, it is a goodbye from Manish, Kislaya and Aadya.
Raina: "I think I have learned a lot from Kanpur, and I want to thank the fans here. God has been really kind, and the credit goes to the supporting staff along with all the senior players. I have worked with all the CSK players. Being part of a new franchise, I think we had to enjoy the T20 and we worked hard as a unit to do that. Me and Baz did well upfront today, and we bowled really well to restrict them below 180."
The Gujarat Lions were jolted early in their chase with the wicket of Aaron Finch. Suresh Raina continued from where he had left the other night, and joined forces with a belligerent Brendon McCullum to bring the chase back on track. Their partnership set up a platform which helped Dwayne Smith finish off the chase with 13 balls to spare.
The Mumbai bowlers were all over the place, and couldn't get the length and line right for the most part. The Gujarat batsmen lapped up the poor bowling, and the chase became a cakewalk in the last five.
16.3 Bumrah to Jadeja, FOUR, slower length ball but that is on the pads, Jadeja has to just get it past short fine leg! Bumrah has been all over the place with his line today. That is the last ball to bowl with the fine leg in the circle.
16.2 Bumrah to Jadeja, 2 runs, slower ball is nudged to short fine leg. RUN OUT appeal. An overthrow results and they scamper back for a second, he his in is Smith as the bails are dislodged.
