Sunrisers 139-7 (20 ovs) vs CSK | Scorecard

Ngidi comes back as Brathwaite and Bhuvneshwar Kumar pick two singles each to get just four runs from the 16th over.

Bravo to finish off his spell early with Dhoni not keeping his overs for the end, having learnt from his past mistakes.

Bravo starts his final over with a couple of wides before the Sunrisers duo pinch two more singles to get six from the over.

A good outing with the ball for Bravo as he finishes with impressive figures of two for 25 in four overs.

Brathwaite finally breaks the shackles as he swipes a length ball from Thakur over midwicket for a six.

The next ball is a bit short and this time Brathwaite pulls it over the same region for another six.

He then tries the scoop but is beaten before he takes a single. Bhuvneshwar miscues the next ball as it goes on the bounce to mid-off before Thakur bowls a wide before Brathwaite picks two runs off the last ball to get 17 from the over, which takes Sunrisers past the 100-run mark, in the 18th over.

Ngidi to bowl the penultimate over. The first ball is a slower ball as Bhuvi gets it on the leg side for one.

Brathwaite then walks across a long way but misses the paddle scoop before he takes one to thirdman.

Bhuvi then has a wild swing before he is beaten but makes connection off the next ball for a single to sweeper cover as it bounces just short of the fielder and Brathwaite takes one off the last ball to keep strike.

Just four from the over as Ngidi finishes with good figures of one for 20 in four overs.

Thakur to bowl the final over. Brathwaite keeps out a yorker first ball before the right-hander is beaten off the next as the pacer keeps it full and outside the off-stump.

Brathwaite then shuffles across and sweeps a full toss to deep square leg for two runs. The next ball is again a full toss as Brathwaite smashes it down the ground over long-on for a six.

The next ball is smashed over the covers for a four as he gets enough power to clear the fielder at covers.

Thakur then tries a short ball but ends up giving away a leg side before Brathwaite hammers the next ball back over the bowler's head for the second six of the over.

The last ball is a bouncer as Bhuvneshwar is run out for seven as they try to sneak a bye.
