Delhi 182-2 (18 ovs) vs CSK 188-7 | Scorecard
Thakur, who was smashed for 31 runs in his first two overs, is back into the attack.
He starts with a wide half-volley which Dhawan cracks through the covers for a four.
Dhawan then walks across his stumps and picks up a full toss over square leg for another four before the pacer bowls a wide.
Some relief for Thakur as he strikes with the wicket of Dhawan, who plays all over a full delivery look to flick it across the line and is trapped leg before wicket.
Despite Pant asking him to review the decision, Dhawan is happy to walk back after a superb innings of 85 from 54 balls, having hit 10 fours and two sixes.
Thakur is fired up after that wicket. He gets some extra bounce to beat new batsman Marcus Stoinis, who is beaten playing at the wide delivery.
The next ball is hit through point for a four as he gets off the mark before Thakur bowls a high bouncer which is ruled a wide.
Delhi need 17 from 3 overs for victory.
Bravo to bowl his fourth and final over. Pant gets a thick outside edge off the first ball for a single to thirdman and Stoinis picks one off the next.
Pant picks a couple off the next delivery on the leg side and then picks a single.
Stoinis hammers the fifth ball through the covers for a four and takes a single from the last ball.
