Punjab 75-0 (6 ovs) vs CSK | Scorecard

Gayle has had enough of the defending as he goes after Harbhajan, in his second over.

The first ball is short as Gayle slaps it through the covers for a four. He plays the inside out lofted shot to the next ball, for a six over the off-side and then takes a single.

Harbhajan then gifts Rahul a full toss and the in-form opener eases it through the covers for a four.

He steps down to the next ball but can't find the gap but Rahul places the last ball perfectly in the gap for another majestic cover driven four.

Harbhajan has gone for 19 in his second over as Punjab race to 39 from four overs.

Pacer Shardul Thakur comes into the attack. He gets an edge off the very first ball but it flies between the wicketkeeper and first slip for a four. How costly could this slip prove for CSK?

Shardul then drops short as Rahul pulls it for a boundary and Gayle slams the last ball past mid-on for the third four of the over as CSK race past 50 in the fifth over.

Chahar comes under heavy attack from Gayle. The tall West Indian clubs the second ball over long-on for a huge six and then clips the next ball square on the leg side for a four.

Gayle cutting loose as he punches the third ball past mid-off for a four and lofts the fifth ball over that fielder for a six.

Gayle has blasted his way to 46 from 21 balls, having hit six fours and three sixes, while Rahul has stroked 28 from 15 balls.

Punjab have raced to 75 from six overs, having smashed 36 from the last two overs.
