CSK 162-5 (19 ovs) vs LSG 166-7 | Scorecard

Thakur to bowl the penultimate over. He starts with a low full toss as Dube guides it past short thirdman for a boundary off the first ball.

The next ball is a high full as Dube slashes it over thirdman for a six.

To make matters worse, it has been ruled a no-ball for height which means CSK gets seven from that delivery.

But Dube can't make most of the free hit delivery as he strokes it down to long-off for one.

Dhoni gets a lifeline as he hits Thakur straight to Bishnoi at mid-off, who puts down a tough chance.

Dube digs out the yorker straight back as Thakur makes a good stop on his follow through. He then guides the next ball to deep point for a single.

Thakur gifts Dhoni a full toss which he easily smacks over midwicket for a four.

19 runs from the 19th over has all but sealed the contest in CSK's favour. They need just five runs from the last over.

Dhoni has smashed 25 from 10 balls to take CSK closer to victory.
