PBKS Vs CSK Live Score And Updates: PBKS win by 18 runs
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) occupy the top spot in IPL title wins alongside their competitors while being the undisputed champion because they reached every group stage apart from four times. Punjab Kings (PBKS) consistently take the position of weakest performers and become the regular subject of playful criticism. During this season CSK and PBKS appear to have reversed their typical positions as one of the most successful teams.

PBKS maintained fourth place after three league matches by losing their first encounter closely followed by two consecutive victories. CSK currently occupies second to the bottom slot after a losing three and winning single match from their four games. PBKS has discovered a perfect batting approach while CSK suffers from a serious lapse in offense after losing their leading-order batters. Though Punjab cricketers want to recover from their 100-run defeat to Rajasthan Royals during the home part of their schedule.

The assistant bowling coach Sridharan Sriram of CSK used his defense statement to explain that such poor team performance occurs at the beginning of each season as specific teams need time to establish their formations and individual roles. Sridharan Sriram mentioned that batsmen play based on the conditions without predetermined batting sequences. The decision-making process between coaches and captains depends on what serves both their team and opposition and current playing condition best according to him as noted in the CSK website.

PBKS Vs CSK Live Score And Updates: SIX
Yash Thakur to Jadeja, no ball, SIX, to deep mid-wicket
PBKS Vs CSK Live Score And Updates: OUT!
Yash Thakur to Dhoni, out Caught by Chahal!! Nervous smile from Shreyas. Meanwhile Yash Thakur has his arms raised in triumph. Was a poor delivery, low full-toss down leg, short fine-leg was inside, Dhoni did not go for it full-blooded, just tried to help it fine and found Chahal. A fumble the first time but he hangs on the 2nd time. That should be the game then.
PBKS Vs CSK Live Score And Updates: Chance
Ferguson to Dhoni, leg byes, 1 run, looked close but umpire Abhijit Bhattacharya gives it not out. It's ump's call on hitting. Very full and angled in on leg-stump, Dhoni heaves and misses, hit on the back leg and Prabhsimran was the one who was convinced, but it was not to be. Stoinis would have got Dhoni with a direct-hit from short third man. Replays show that Dhoni was taking it easy and did not expect the throw to come to his end, nearly caught shot

Ferguson to Dhoni, SIX, to long-off

Ferguson to Dhoni, leg byes, 1 run
PBKS Vs CSK Live Score And Updates: OUT!
Ferguson to Shivam Dube, out Bowled!! Massive wicket and PBKS are elated. Ferguson punches the air in delight. A slower-ball and well-disguised, the knuckle-ball, well-executed and Shivam Dube is way too early into the swipe to leg, misses and the top of middle-stump is found. That was bowled at 127kph, Dube lost his touch all of a sudden in the last 5-10 minutes and now loses his wicket.
PBKS Vs CSK Live Score And Updates: Dropped!
Arshdeep Singh to Shivam Dube, 1 run, dropped by Lockie at backward point. So many chances dropped tonight. Full outside off, Shivam Dube slices it and it's at a comfortable height for Lockie, he drops it and wrings his hands in pain. Should have been taken

Pathirana to Shashank Singh, 3 runs, clumsy effort to end the innings. Sums up CSK's performance in this season. That's fifty for Singh as well. Superb knock from him. Ruturaj does afford a smile. Seemed a helpless one. The batter drilled a fuller one wide of cover. Noor dived, put in the slide and they get a triple in the end. The throw from the deep at the bowler's end was a weak one

Noor Ahmad to Priyansh Arya, out Caught by Shankar!! Taken by the man at long-on. The roller coaster has ended. One helluva ride. Even CSK fans would have enjoyed this superb show from Arya. For a change, he didn't time it. The ball was hit flat and the man at long-on took it with elan. That was floated wide, outside off, dipped a little, Priyansh Arya went for the slog sweep and found the man at long-on. Hit flat and the man at long-on this time checked his back foot to see if he is inside or not, was well inside.
PBKS Vs CSK Live Score And Updates: FOUR!
Pathirana to Priyansh Arya, FOUR, maiden IPL century for Priyansh Arya! Take a bow, young man! He came in with a clear plan, picked his spots and has hit the bowlers all around the ground. He had some reputation but was more of an unknown commodity.

Ashwin to Maxwell, out Caught&Bowled!! That's a brilliant reflex catch from Ashwin and he is over the moon! Two in the over for the veteran. The carrom ball and it's flighted on a length on middle and leg, turns away a bit, Maxwell clears his front leg and smacks it straight. Ashwin hardly has time to react but he gets into a good position on his followthrough. The ball slips from his right hand due the power with which it was hit but he uses his left hand to control the ball and gets hold of the ball with support from the body.

Ashwin to Nehal Wadhera, out Caught by Dhoni!! Another batter departs in a bid to play an expansive shot! Darted in on a length across Nehal Wadhera. He tries to slog it across but only manages to get a top-edge behind. Dhoni takes a few steps behind and is safe as houses.
