Mohammed Shami to Suresh Raina, OUT! CAUGHT! Raina departs to the short ball. This will not affect the outcome of the game but might see Raina being peppered with a lot of short stuff. It is close to the body. Raina looks to pull but gloves it to KL Rahul. He takes a simple catch.

Murugan Ashwin to Moeen Ali, OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to the man at deep mid-wicket. Moeen has done his job here. Floated on middle, it is the wrong 'un again. Moeen once again looks to slog it over on the leg side This time he does not get under it and hits it straight to Shahrukh Khan at deep mid-wicket. He has had a good game and he takes a simple catch. Murugan has something to smile about.

Mohammed Shami to Moeen Ali, FOUR! Gorgeous from Moeen! Ends the over in style. 10 off it and Chennai are probably looking to finish this quickly and shoot up their net run rate. Shami overpitches it on off, Moeen says thank you for the gift and creams it through extra cover for a boundary.

Murugan Ashwin to Moeen Ali, EDGY FOUR! A genuine outside edge but it goes wide of Gayle at slip. Murugan dishes out the wrong 'un and lands it on a fuller length on off, Moeen pushes inside the line, without realizing that it will turn away. The outside edge is generated but it speeds past the left side of Gayle for a boundary at third man.

Arshdeep Singh to Moeen Ali, FOUR! Tantalizingly close but away! Short ball around off, Moeen pulls it with power. He gets it just wide of short mid-wicket and to the fence for a boundary. Spoils the over but still a good one. Just 5 off it.

Riley Meredith to Moeen Ali, FOUR! Shot! A lovely way to cap off the Powerplay overs. Meredith takes a length ball away from the left-hander with his angle, Moeen presses forward, opens the face of his bat, doesn't try to hit it hard and just places it sweetly through the gap between point and cover-point. Top class placement. 32/1 in 6 overs, 75 needed more.

Riley Meredith to Moeen Ali, FOUR! Glorious! Out of the middle of the bat from Moeen Ali. Fuller length ball around off, angling aay, Moeen nicely transfers his weight into the drive and thumps it through covers.

Arshdeep Singh to Ruturaj Gaikwad, OUT! CAUGHT! Ruturaj Gaikwad's struggle out in the middle comes to an end. He never looked comfortable out in the middle and has to depart. Arshdeep gets the first wicket of the innings. Can Punjab strike a few more quickly and unsettle the Chennai dressing room? Bouncer on middle, Gaikwad looks to pull but mistimes it yet again. This time he finds Deepak Hooda to perfection at deep mid-wicket.

Jhye Richardson to Faf du Plessis, SIX! Innovative, tactical and super from du Plessis! Full on off, Faf premeditates it. He knows the man at deep square leg is too wide. He comes inside his stumps and paddles it over the backward square leg fence for a biggie. 14 off the over and if there was any pressure building., that has been released.
