Chennai 147-5 (19 ovs) vs Deccan

Young pacer Ashish Reddy to bowl the crucial 19th over. He starts with a slower delivery as Dhoni is foxed and misses the big hit.

The Chennai captain then hits it on the leg side and runs across for two runs. He then pulls a waist high full toss straight to deep square leg for just one, once again missing the opportunity to get a boundary.

Jadeja falls victim to the slower ball as he looks to heave it on the leg side but is caught at covers off a thick outside edge for four.

Dhoni then is quick to spot the slower ball as he lofts it back over the bowler for a four and then pulls the next ball on the leg side for one.
