Chennai Super Kings lost to Rajasthan Royals in the 47th match of the IPL 2021. After the loss, CSK captain MS Dhoni said, A bad toss to lose. 190 was a good score, and the dew made it flat, and the ball started coming on well. You needed to bat well, and they did that and put pressure on the bowlers. They just took the game away in the first 6 overs."
"I think the batsmen must assess quickly what is a good score, and you tend to go hard in the format and then realise that it's not a 160-180 wicket. They assessed the conditions quickly, and they didn't let the pressure get to the middle order. Deepak played really well, and the bowlers were under the pump. We should have used the dimensions better. It's important to forget but also learn from this game because there's no point learning if this happens in a playoff match."
Brief Score:
Chennai Super Kings - 189/4 in 20 overs. (Gaikwad - 101* (60), Tewatia - 3/39)
Rajasthan Royals - 190/3 in 17.3 overs. (Dube - 64*(42), Yashasvi - 50(21), Shardul - 2/30
