IPL 2018, CSK vs MI: 5 reasons why CSK lost

#2 Not enough flourish at the end for CSK

After posting 91 in the first ten overs, Chennai looked well on course to post a total near 200. But the opposition had their own plans as they didn’t let the home team tee off in the final ten as they picked wickets at crucial junctures of the game.

In the last ten overs, the men in yellow could only manage to score 78 runs. This was made possible by some consistent good length bowling that paved way for the visitors to stage a comeback in the match. With no support from the other end, even Raina’s knock of 75 could just help Chennai to put 169 in their 20 overs.
