Punjab Kings vs Chennai Super Kings, 22nd Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

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 as Shashank Singh dived in. They end with 219

Pathirana to Marco Jansen, SIX, straight down the ground for a sixer. One-handed sixer. That was fuller, tailing in, slower, Marco Jansen got under the ball and slammed it down the ground for a sixer. Massive hit

Khaleel Ahmed to Shashank Singh, FOUR, a mini helicopter! The man who owned it is impressed? That was in the slot, Shashank Singh opened his stance and whipped the ball wide of long-on and away from deep mid for a four. Lovely placement

Khaleel Ahmed to Marco Jansen, 2 runs, short ball, pulled down to deep mid for a couple as Ravindra stops it. Throws it off-balanced but couple taken

Khaleel Ahmed to Marco Jansen, FOUR, ouch! Another clumsy dive. Too many fielders to hide. Ashwin there dives to his left but fails to stop it. Good short ball, took the edge, ball bounced and spun down to the third man fence

Pathirana to Shashank Singh, 1 run, full toss tails in, Shashank Singh looks to slog and gets an inside edge. CSK reviewed and lost one. They get a single

Pathirana to Marco Jansen, SIX, and six more. On a length, Marco Jansen sends that flying over long-on. Massive hit from the SA all-rounder. Pathirana has been sent on a journey

Noor Ahmad to Shashank Singh, 2 runs, and CSK's day has been summed up. Terrible drop. Ravindra drops a sitter. Would take it with eyes closed on other days. Was a tossed up googly, Shashank Singh went for the slog sweep but got a top-edge. The ball stayed in the air, the fielder got to it, settled under it and then dropped it. Worse the throw was a bad one and they get one extra run on the overthrow

Noor Ahmad to Shashank Singh, SIX, freebie and sixer. Dropped short, wide, Shashank Singh slaps it over cover. Flat and hard. Dismissive from Shashank Singh and Punjab have 8 off the over already

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. Priyansh Arya c Shankar b Noor Ahmad 103(42) [4s-7 6s-9]

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 locally coming into the IPL but was more of an unknown commodity. To those who don't know - he smashed six sixes in an over in the Delhi Premier League. He takes his helmet off, raises his arms and soaks in all the applause. His teammates in the dugout are overjoyed! Was a full ball on middle and leg and swung in, Priyansh Arya got squared up as he tried to flick it across but got a thick edge past the left side of short third to find the fence. This is a knock that Priyansh will remember for a lifetime. This is what dreams are made of! It will take him some time to take it all in...

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. Maxwell c and b Ashwin 1(2)

Stoinis c Conway b Khaleel Ahmed 4(7)

Khaleel Ahmed to Priyansh Arya, FOUR, techinally another missed opportunity! On a length wide outside off, Priyansh Arya crunches it uppishly towards point. It's Shankar once again. He leaps like a goalkeeper to his left and manages to get a hand on it but it flies through. Noor in the deep moves to his left but can't stop. That was hit hard

Khaleel Ahmed to Stoinis, 2 runs, dropped! It was a very difficult chance though. A shortish delivery outside off, Stoinis nails the pull towards short mid-wicket.

Noor in the deep hares to his left and dives to save a couple of runs for his side

Mukesh Choudhary to Prabhsimran, out Bowled!! Knocked him over! Prabhsimran takes a couple of steps down the track and Mukesh Choudhary shortens his length and keeps it tight around the off-stump and also generates some extra bounce on it. Prabhsimran tries to tap it with an open bat-face behind square on the off-side but only manages to get an inside edge that crashes into middle and leg.
