IPL 2018 Final, CSK vs SRH Live Score: Chennai Super Kings beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets

S Sharma to S Raina, Rocks back to a short ball and punches it towards backward point for a run. 35/1 in the Powerplay!

S Sharma to S Watson, Not out! The dive has saved Raina. A slower one by Sharma which deceives the batsman this time. Watson tries the slog sweep but fails to connect. It hits him on the pads and rolls near the surface as Raina calls him through for a quick run. The bowler also rushes to the ball and kicks it onto the stumps at the striker's end as Suresh dives in. It's referred upstairs and the replays find Raina safe much to the delight of Chennai's fans.

Appeal for a run out! It's referred upstairs...

S Sharma to S Watson, FOUR! Shot! That went like a tracer bullet. Fuller in length around off, Shane rockets his off drive straight down the ground for a powerful boundary.

S Sharma to S Watson, SIX! Thumped! Sandeep is too straight in line this time, the length is on the shorter side which allows the Aussie the room to swing his arms. He does so with great power and dispatches it over square leg for a biggie.

S Sharma to S Raina, A cracking shot square of the wicket on the off side and Hooda makes a nice diving stop at point. Cannot prevent the single.

S Sharma to S Watson, It's short and around off and Watson powers it to deep mid-wicket. First look of Rashid Khan in the field and it was a brilliant view. The Afghan just plucked the ball out of the thin air to stop a racing ball on the bounce. A single added to the total as the crowd roars.

S Sharma to S Watson, Wide! Watson gives the charge, probably trying to negate the movement and sensing that Sandeep hurls this one down the leg side.

B Kumar to S Watson, A little too straight again by Kumar, Watson works it in front of square leg and jogs across to the other end. 4 from this over, Kumar's figures read - 3-1-9-0!

B Kumar to S Raina, Full and on the pads, Raina flicks it to deep mid-wicket and takes a single.

B Kumar to S Raina, Gets behind the line of the delivery and pushes it back to the bowler. Tidy stuff by Bhuvi.

B Kumar to S Raina, Length ball on middle and off, Raina defends it from the crease. It takes the inside half of his bat and hits him on the pads.

B Kumar to S Watson, On the pads and it's eased away to long leg for one.

B Kumar to S Raina, Turns it off his pads behind square leg for a run.

Suresh Raina is the number 3 batsman. 163 needed off 96 balls.

S Sharma to du Plessis, OUT! Sandeep strikes and draws first blood! Change in pace has done the trick and it's the famous knuckle delivery which wasn't picked by Faf. The bowler smartly follows the batsman down the leg side, du Plessis walks down the track, aiming for a lofted shot over the bowler's head probably but ends up miscuing it badly in the air. Sharma calls for it and takes the catch safely by moving across to his left. The hero of the last game is gone and it's a big blow to Chennai.

S Sharma to S Watson, Slower delivery, on a length and angling into the batsman, Watson swings at it and gets it away from the inner half of the bat. A single taken.

S Sharma to S Watson, Defended off the back foot by the batsman.

S Sharma to S Watson, FOUR! Gets off the mark with a brutal shot down the ground. Fuller and on off, Watson drills it straight back past the bowler at mid off for a boundary.
