Arshdeep Singh to Shivam Dube
DROPPED! Lockie Ferguson puts it down! Third dropped catch by the Kings. Arshdeep keeps it full and away from the batter's arc. Dube tries to use the pace by opening the bat face. He fails to keep it along the ground and glides it straight to backward point where it goes at waist height to Lockie Ferguson but he shells it. They cross.

Arshdeep Singh to Devon Conway
Drags the length back, outside off, Conway pats it wide of extra cover for a single.

Arshdeep Singh to Shivam Dube
Superb over from Arshdeep! Six singles off the over. Dube knows that it is going to be full and wide, near the guideline, so he walks across well before the release and drills this full ball to long off for one.

W
Lockie Ferguson to Shivam Dube
OUT! TIMBER! Lockie Ferguson throughly deserved this wicket for being smart with his variations. Bowls the knuckle-ball on a length, on middle and off and angles it into the batter. Shivam Dube swipes across but does so a bit too ealry and gets beaten on the inside edge. The ball zips through the gap between the bat and the pad to knock the bails over. 
15.6
1
Lockie Ferguson to MS Dhoni
A huge mix-up and CSK get away with this one. Full and on middle and leg, MS Dhoni tucks it to mid-wicket and sets off for the run. Devon Conway responds too but both batters get stranded in the middle unsure of whether to complete the run or return back. They decide to cross and the fielder fails to hit the stumps at the batting end with the keeper not backing up. Devon Conway was nowhere in the frame as the ball went past the stumps. 
16.1
1
Yuzvendra Chahal to MS Dhoni
Nagging length, on middle and leg, MS Dhoni knocks it through mid-wicket for one.

Yuzvendra Chahal to Devon Conway
And again. Wider outside off, fuller in length, Conway has to reach for it and lifts it over cover for two more runs. 9 runs off this over. CSK need 59 more runs off 18 balls.

Lockie Ferguson to MS Dhoni
Very full, on the pads, MS Dhoni looks to flick but misses. The ball goes to the square leg region off his pads and the batters take a leg bye. The required rate is sky rocketing and Punjab are bowling really well. 
17.2

Lockie Ferguson to Devon Conway
Superb effort from the skipper Shreyas Iyer in the deep. On a length, on middle, Devon Conway swipes it across and gets it right in the gap between long on and deep mid-wicket. Iyer, from long on, moves across and just about manages to push the ball back in as he goes past the ropes. Keeps it down to just a single. The third umpire checks multiple angles to see if the foot was in contact with the boundary cushion but deems it a fair effort.

Lockie Ferguson to MS Dhoni
A loud appeal for LBW but is turned down by the umpire. Punjab Kings decide to challenge it. Full and angling into middle and leg, MS Dhoni looks to whip it off the pads but gets beaten. There is no bat involved and the Ball Tracking shows the ball to be clipping leg stump and comes up as an umpires call. The batters take a leg bye off it. As the ball went off the pads towards backward point, Marcus Stoinis was quick to collect it and had a shy at the bowling end. Had the throw hit, MSD was gone.

Lockie Ferguson to Devon Conway
Full and on off, Devon Conway looks to power it on the off side but gets an under edge past the keeper to his right for one.

Lockie Ferguson to MS Dhoni
SIX! BANG! That's a clean hit but CSK will need plenty of these. Another knuckle-ball on off and middle, MS Dhoni swings through the line and clears long off for a biggie.

Lockie Ferguson to MS Dhoni
SIX! A great use of a review but it still will end as back-to-back sixes! A waist-high full toss on middle, MS Dhoni swings across and gets a top edge over short fine leg for a biggie. It is given a No ball by the onfield umpire but Punjab Kings send it upstairs. The Ball Tracker shows the ball was dipping and was lower than the waist height. The on field call is overturned to a fair delivery.

Arshdeep Singh to MS Dhoni
FOUR! Arshdeep Singh goes short for once and pays the price. Back of a length, angling into the left shoulder of the batter, MS Dhoni swivels and pulls it over short fine leg for a boundary.

Arshdeep Singh to MS Dhoni
SIX! Too good a shot from MS Dhoni! Knew Arshdeep Singh would go back to fuller-length outside off and moves a bit to reach for it. Carves it over cover for a biggie.

Arshdeep Singh to MS Dhoni
Arshdeep Singh persists with that full one, outside off, MS Dhoni steers it to deep third for one. 28 runs needed off the last over now.

Yash Thakur to MS Dhoni
OUT! CAUGHT! Yash Thakur bowls the worst possible ball to start the final over and manages to get the big wicket. This should be it for Punjab Kings! A low full toss, just down leg, MS Dhoni gets low and angles it straight to Yuzvendra Chahal at short fine leg. The ball goes hard at chest height and Yuzvendra Chahal pops it out but manages to grab it on the second attempt.
