Super Kings Ready to move to semifinals

Chennai Super Kings win by 13 runs over Perth Scorchers

Chennai Super Kings :155 for 6 (Jadeja 44*, Dhoni 35)
 Perth Scorchers 142 for 7 (Coulter-Nile 30, Ashwin 3-20,Nehra 2-27)

      


Great innings by Jadeja & Dhoni carried CSK from their lowest score in 14 overs to a competitive one in 20 overs. Dhoni really carried CSK with 35 . This was the really Do-or-Die over for both the teams & Dhoni did not fail the team. Jadeja finished strongly to give CSK a fighting chance. However it was Ashwin who brought CSK into winning position along with Nehra. But the Scorchers nearly came back thru' lower batting after a slow start to lose the match by just 13 runs. It was a great match where both the teams were determined to win & CSK just about made it to keep their playoff hopes alive. Smith & McCullum once again showed their lack of reliability & Raina was unfortunately run out to add to their misery. Despite losing their top 3 hitters, CSK did well to finish with 155 & make it stand for a win. Well Done!
