In a high scoring game where it was not easy to be a bowler, Chahal stood tall and bowled an exceptional spell.

He was tossed the ball in just the fourth over and gave away only five singles. Kohli bowled him another one in the powerplay and the move paid off, as Chahal got the better of Dhawan.

It was a crucial wicket in the context of the game, as SRH were flying high and RCB needed a breakthrough. Chahal ended up with brilliant figures of one for 28 in four overs.

On a night where most bowlers went to the cleaners, Chahal’s economical spell was very crucial.
