Ad

Raina's absence forced CSK to shuffle their batting line up with Rayudu pushed down to the number three spot while Murali Vijay was drafted into the side as opener alongside Shane Watson.
The openers fell cheaply and while Rayudu and Dhoni tried their best in the run-chase, Suresh Raina's presence and experience in chasing big targets was sorely missed by CSK who fell narrowly short of the KXIP total.
