Delhi 86-0 (9 ovs) vs CSK 188-7 | Scorecard

CSK introduce spin at the end of Powerplay as Ravindra Jadeja comes in to bowl the seventh over.

He starts with a rank long hop which Dhawan fails to cash on, pulling it to deep square leg for a single.

Shaw miscues the next ball on the off-side which falls well short of long-off for a single.

Three more singles from the rest of the over as Jadeja concedes just five runs in his first over.

Spin from both ends as Moeen Ali comes in from the other end. Dhawan tries the reverse sweep first ball but is hit on the pads as he sneaks a quick leg bye.

Shaw plays another loose shot, this time he mishits the attempted lofted shot but once again he has the luck on his side as Mitchell Santer rushes in from long-off but is unable to pouch a difficult chance.

Dhawan gets a leading edge off the next before singles come off the last three balls.

Moeen also concedes five off his first over, with the spinners looking to keep things tight in the middle overs.

It is only singles at the moment for Delhi's batsmen against the CSK spinners.

Dhawan and Shaw take one each off Jadeja's first two deliveries before the former hits the third ball wide of long-off for two runs.

Shaw was itching to take on the spinner. Finally gets it off the middle as he lofts Jadeja wide of long-on for a six.

Shaw has smashed his way to 47 from 25 balls, to keep Delhi on course.
