Good runs were scored in the Chennai Super Kings innings, but once again the electric and perfect bowling of the CSK bowlers stopped them. The spin bowling of Rahul Chahar and Harpreet Brar kept CSK’s batsmen in check.
After Dhoni’s run-out, PBKS’s ‘Thala for a reason’ post went viral on social media. Punjab’s victory was expressed boldly in this post.
Later, referring to their own position in the points table, 7 Punjab Kings wrote “Thala for a reason”.
There was another reason behind the victory of Punjab, which was the lack of amazing batting in this match against Chennai. Chennai’s batting scored only 162 runs, including 2 wickets of Rahul Chahar. Punjab bowlers controlled Chennai’s innings and achieved victory.
After the match, the Punjab captain highlighted the importance of bowling and said that dew had changed the dynamics of the match. He said that it was important to keep the bowlers in mind to control Chennai’s batting.
CSK captain Gaikwad regretted saying after the match:
“It’s a real problem (not having Pathirana and Deshpande). There are stages where you want to take wickets, and you only have two bowlers, plus spinners are out of the question because of dew. Not doing much Can “
The captain further said: “It is very difficult. Even in the last game we were quite surprised that we would win by such a margin.”
He also said: “It (dew) is something we cannot control. We can bat a little better in the first innings. In the last two matches, we tried our best to score 200-210 runs on this pitch. It was difficult to score 180.”
Apart from this, Gaikwad admitted that “to be honest, 50-60 runs less. When we were batting first, the pitch was not good, there was dew as well.”
The excellent bowling shown during this match helped Punjab achieve victory. But the Chennai Super Kings team is also fully prepared to bring Badal into the match.
In the next matches, Punjab will have to work on improving their batting and bowling to achieve more victories. At the same time, Chennai needs to strengthen their game further, so that they can be replaced in the future matches.
