Score150 - 6

S Thakur to D Karthik, OUT! Fourth catch for Faf du Plessis! The ball has been following him today in the field. Thakur serves a fuller length ball outside off at 136.3 kph, Karthik keeps his weight on the back foot, trying to heave it over the leg side, but ends up towering it straight up in the air at long off. Yet another flop show from the Kolkata skipper this season. This is excellent going for Chennai at the back end of the innings.

I Tahir to S Gill, Tahir drags this one really short outside off, cut away to deep point for a couple of runs.

Strategic break! It has been a good turnaround for Chennai. Kolkata are losing their way and have lost Chris Lynn as well as Andre Russell at the wrong time. Dinesh Karthik and Shubman Gill will be the key for Kolkata to reach 190 from this stage. The visitors would try to restrict them to something lesser than that. Let's see who succeeds...
