The year-old Chennai lad smashed eight fours and six sixes in his innings as he made the most of the death overs. Earlier, Wriddhiman Saha scored 54 off 39 on a day when his prolific opening partner Shubman Gill was limited to a score of 39 off Only slight drizzles appeared throughout the GT innings which didn't cause stoppages of any kind. However, the stoppage came eventually after the third ball of the first over of the CSK innings with heavy rain pouring down at the stadium. While the rain itself didn't last long, it was the wet outfield, particularly a problematic practice pitch at the edge of the square that caused the biggest delay. Finally, the match got reduced to 15 overs and CSK's target was revised to The match eventually resumed and it has been a see-saw affair ever since. Mohit bowled the last over as well and brought it down to CSK needing 10 to win off the last two balls. But Ravindra Jadeja ended up smashing the second last ball for a six and the last ball for a four to lead CSK to a five-wicket win and their fifth title. Dhoni was standing sheepishly behind Binny initially as he asked Jadeja and Rayudu to receive the trophy first before finally joining in. Then, after a brief, fleeting moment with that cup, he gives it to his teammates and disappears into the background. But he can't really do that, can he? He is MS Dhoni after all, try as he might he will never really be in the background. Just this time though, it is other yellow shirts who dominate the camera frame and lay their hands on that coveted trophy that Dhoni has lifted five times now.

It would be a gift from me, won't be easy on the body. You do get emotional, the first game at CSK everyone was chanting my name. My eyes were full of water, I needed to take some time off in the dugout. I realised I need to enjoy this.

Schedule Table Videos Series. The major point of concern is one of the pitches in the square. This time it's only one. And then the second last ball went over long on and the last goes past short fine leg. Suresh Raina Much like Dhoni, Raina was a fan favourite. We play with a lot of heart, really proud of the way we kept fighting. Thus in a 5 over innings, it would be possible for 2 bowlers to each bowl 2 overs and a third bowler to bowl 1 over. But Ahmedabad has shown itself to be a very friendly ground for batters. Just keep cheering the way you've been cheering. Four fours and two sixes in there.

I'm fortunate to have played in really great sides. It is unlikely to be very different tonight. What is CSK's best bet to dismiss Gill early? Army won by 8 runs. Hardik has walked across it, putting all his weight on it.
