Chennai Vs Rajasthan Live Cricket Score - Live Score, Match 17 - Full Scorecard

Ben Laughlin to S Watson, OUT! So the good over by Laughlin continues as he gets the wicket of Watson. End of an excellent innings and he walks off to a standing ovation. A full ball outside off, Watson tries to go downtown but gets an outside edge which goes into the mitts of Buttler behind.

Ben Laughlin to A Rayudu, OUT! Edged and Rayudu departs! Ben Laughlin provides the breakthrough as he draws first blood. Ben hurls it on a length around off, too close to the body but Rayudu still attempts to play the cut shot. Gets an edge and Buttler behind the stumps doesn't drop these. Some relief for the visitors. Can they pick up one more to nullify the Powerplay?

S Gopal to S Raina, OUT! In the air... and that is a stunner by Gowtham! Gopal gets the wicket but a lot of credit has to be given to Krishnappa. Gopal bowls a googly once again on middle, Raina goes for another boundary as he brings out the slog sweep. He hits it flat towards deep mid-wicket where Gowtham runs to his left, dives forward and takes it inches above the ground. A much-needed wicket for Rajasthan. They have broken the 81-run stand. An enterprising innings by Raina comes to an end. Rajasthan will now look to build on this.

S Gopal to MS Dhoni, OUT! Gopal strikes AGAIN! Krishnappa Gowtham takes another fabulous catch. The youngster is proving to be a handy fielder for Rajasthan. Dhoni comes down the track, gets to the pitch of the ball but he cannot get underneath it. He smashes it towards Gowtham at long on. The fielder times his jump to perfection but could not hang on to it in the first attempt. He shows great match awareness to react quickly and take it on the second attempt. A big wicket for Rajasthan as everybody knows how dangerous Dhoni is. They need to keep chipping away at the wickets here to slow the scoring rate.

S Gopal to Sam Billings, OUT! Another one bites the dust! So a good passage of play here for Rajasthan and once again it is Gopal who strikes. He gets his third. This one is flatter and on the shorter side on middle, Billings rocks back and pulls it hard and flat but straight to Ben Stokes at deep mid-wicket who does not make a mistake.

D Chahar to A Rahane, OUT! BOWLED 'EM! Rahane has been completely deceived there. It is the knuckle ball which does the trick. It is landed on a length around middle and off, Ajinkya advances down the track and swings. He is way too early into the shot as he misses the ball completely. The ball hits the top of middle to give Chahar his second. Rajasthan are now in big, big trouble.

S Thakur to H Klaasen, OUT! TIMBER! Klaasen does not make much of the chance he gets. Thakur draws first blood! This one is bowled on a length around middle. The ball may have stayed a touch low as Klaasen is late in bringing his bat down. He gets beaten and the ball hits the middle of the middle pole. So the debutant walks back cheaply and the move to send him at the top doesn't work for Rajasthan.

D Chahar to S Samson, OUT! Chahar strikes! Excellent field placement as there was a man there for that shot. A short ball on middle, Samson goes for the pull and he connects well but does not get the distance as he holes out at deep backward square leg where Karn Sharma gobbles it up with ease. Two wickets for Chennai and Rajasthan are in trouble. They need another 180.

I Tahir to Ben Stokes, OUT! Stokes departs! He knew straightaway as soon as he hit that. Tossed up this time, it's the leg break from Tahir. Stokes gets down on one knee to slog sweep it but doesn't connect well. Gets a lot of height but not the distance as Sam Billings positions himself underneath it at deep mid-wicket and takes a smart reverse cup catch over his head.

D Bravo to Jos Buttler, OUT! Bravo comes and picks up a wicket straightaway! And his celebrations begin! Starts off with a slower delivery, a bit short and served outside off. Buttler decides to take the new bowler out of the ground as he looks to swing across the line. Is undone by the lack of pace on the ball and gets a top edge which squirts up in the air towards short third man. Imran Tahir accepts a dolly.

D Bravo to R Tripathi, OUT! Straight up in the air! Fifth wicket down for Rajasthan and it's the slower one from Bravo that does the trick! Rahul Tripathi gets down to play the big slog but gets a big top edge on it. Sam Billings from deep mid-wicket comes a couple of steps ahead and takes it safely in the end. This is turning out to be a lopsided game!

S Thakur to S Binny, OUT! Phenomenal stuff from Shardul Thakur. He's pumped with that effort. Why wouldn't he be? Stunning. Short of a good length on middle, Binny gets a top edge on the leg side as he looks to pull. Thakur runs to the ball himself, dives to get his right hand under it and then holds on to it as well. A well-deserved wicket.

S Watson to K Gowtham, OUT! Watson contributing with the ball as well! He digs in a slower bumper outside off, Gowtham tries to fetch it but all he manages is a top edge which lobs behind. Dhoni moves to his left and takes an easy catch. Rajasthan are falling like a pack of cards now.

K Sharma to J Unadkat, OUT! Bowled 'em! That's wicket number 50 for Karn Sharma in the Indian T20 League. Sends in a googly, it's on the stumps, Unadkat gets down to unleash another slog but that's too good for him. Goes under his bat and rattles the furniture behind.

K Sharma to Ben Laughlin, OUT! And Karn Sharma wraps things up! We have lost the count of the bowlers who have picked up two in two this season. A leg break, quicker through the air and turning away from a length just a bit. Laughlin hangs back to push it away but gets a faint edge to Dhoni who takes it really well. CHENNAI BEAT RAJASTHAN BY A HUGE MARGIN OF 64 RUNS!
