MI chose to field first, and had a good Powerplay as they restricted CSK to 48/1. A middle overs recovery from Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shivam Dube pushed the score up, before Jasprit Bumrah was responsible for reining CSK in once again.
In reply, Rohit Sharma scored an unbeaten century for MI, but was unable to take his side across the line as they ended up losing 20 runs.

‘Telling them what to do…’ – MI captain Hardik Pandya pays tribute to MS Dhoni after MI vs CSK clash
Interestingly, the winning margin for CSK was 20 runs, the exact number scored MS Dhoni in his four balls faced at the end of the first innings. Immediately after the match, MI captain Hardik Pandya was asked about the turning point of the game, and he had a separate word of appreciation for the World Cup-winning captain, saying,
[…] they bowled pretty well and Pathirana was the difference. They were smart with their plans and used the longer boundary well. They got the hang of it and they have a man behind the stumps [Dhoni] telling them what to do. The ball was slightly gripping and they got ahead of the game.
This is not the first time Pandya has publcily expressed his admiration for Dhoni. Last year, after his Gujarat Titans side lost to CSK in the final of the IPL, he said that “if I had to lose, I don’t mind losing to him”.
