Ryder and Smith wins the match for Pune Warriors

Result: Pune Warriors won by 7 wickets with 4 balls remaining.

Toss: Chennai Super Kings won the toss and chose to bat first.

Description:
CSK started off slowly before Faf du Plesis (43 runs from 33 balls) banged the 4th over of innings by Ashish Nehra. Once again Murli Vijay went back disappointing his fans.Dhoni and Jadeja did well to get a good partnership which led CSK to a good competitive score of 155 runs by the help of some firing shots by Jadeja (44 runs of 26 balls) at the loss of 5 wickets in 20 overs.


Now the target PWI had to chase was of 156 runs in 20 overs. PWI lost their 1st wicket on 31 runs which was of Uthappa who was run out by Bravo and Kulasekara. PWI successfully chased down the target by the useful innings of Ryder (73 runs off 56 balls) and Smith (44 runs of 22 balls). Ashwin (19 runs/4 overs) and Raina (22 runs/4 overs) bowled economically but this was not adequate to change the match result.

Man of the Match: Jesse Ryder was chosen man of the match for his useful batting performance.
