चेन्नई vs पंजाब, मैच 7, एमए चिदंबरम स्टेडियम, चेन्नई, 03 April 2026 - लाइव क्रिकेट स्कोर

SIX! FIFTY FOR AYUSH MHATRE! He gets there off just 29 balls. His knock so far includes four boundaries and four sixes. A slower one by Stoinis to start with, on off and in the slot. Ayush Mhatre waits for the ball to arrive and smacks it downtown for a six to get to his milestone. Chepauk absolutely loves this as they admire this impactful knock from a youngster from Virar, Maharashtra.

 SIX! Goes the distance once more! A hit-me ball once again, outside off. Mhatre pumps it over long off for one more six. That's his fifth of the evening.

WIDE! Breaches the tramline, far outside off, on a length. Mhatre leaves. Wided.

Low full toss, outside off, Mhatre lofts it over the vacant mid on region for one run.

Two is the call and they will get it! Mhatre had to hurry a bit, though in the end. Back of a length, angled at the leg stump. Ruturaj Gaikwad plays it with soft hands, tucking it into the empty mid-wicket region for a couple of runs. The bowler himself rushes across and slides before throwing the ball to the bowling end, but doesn't get enough power on the throw, which allows Mhatre to slide his bat in.

Slightly short, outside off, Gaikwad drags it to long on for a single.

Well-directed bouncer, over the off pole. Ayush Mhatre looks to pull, but the ball keeps rising and beats him.

Gets a bit of an in-drift on the leg stump, too full. Gaikwad flicks it to the right of long on for a single.

 IN THE AIR AND DROPPED! Vijaykumar Vyshak is the guilty party at short fine leg. A big, big opportunity gone begging. Flighted delivery on the stumps, drifting in and around the pads. Mhatre goes early into the sweep and gets a top edge behind him. Vyshak from short fine leg charges in and dives full-length, getting fingertips to it but failing to hold on.

Pushed through, full and wide on off. Mhatre reaches out and lofts this over cover. Shashank Singh almost overruns the ball in the deep but manages to make the stop eventually. Two runs taken.

At just 71.3 kph now, full and on middle. Ayush Mhatre loses his shape while trying to slog it over mid-wicket and inside edges it past the leg stump, for a single to the right of short fine leg.

 A slider on the pads at 91.1 kph, Gaikwad clips it neatly into the gap between long on and deep mid-wicket, picking up a couple of runs. 100 UP FOR CSK!

Floated fuller and around off, Gaikwad presses in front and eases it down to long on for a single. At the halfway mark, the Super Kings are 101/1.

On a good length, on off. Gaikwad dabs it to the left of point and gets to the other end.

Very full, outside off. Mhatre digs it beside the strip on the off side and crosses over.

Keeps it full, just outside the off stump. Ruturaj Gaikwad brings his bottom hand into play and he whips it to the right of long on for a couple of runs.

On top of off, Gaikwad plays it on the up to long on. They cross.

FOUR! Clever batting! Vijaykumar Vyshak gets in the wide yorker, near the tramline. Mhatre reaches out and takes the ball on the full. He opens the bat face to glide it behind point. The man in the deep is a bit square and he is beaten to his left. This is the first four for CSK since the sixth over, but they have hit four 6s during that period.

Vijaykumar Vyshak sticks to the wide line, full in length. Mhatre premeditates as he walks across for the scoop. On seeing the line of the ball, he shapes up to angle the bat face and steer it past short third but misses. Mhatre has a look at the umpire, but since he had moved across the stumps, the umpire does not call it a wide.

OUT! CAUGHT! An innocuous delivery, but Yuzvendra Chahal will take it. Sprayed on the pads, slightly on the shorter side, and this skids through. Gaikwad gets down on a knee and swings away on the leg side. He fails to beat the fielder at deep backward square leg. It goes flat towards the man in the deep. Nehal Wadhera moves to his right and snaffles it with ease. The Super Kings are 110/2.

Floated up, on off. Dube pushes it down to long off and opens his account with a single.

Well, well! This is slowed down by Chahal, landing around middle and leg, on a good length. Mhatre is squared up on the back foot by the spin, but manages to keep it out.

DROPPED! Ayush Mhatre is living a charmed life. The second catch that has been dropped off the bowling of Chahal, and both have been of Mhatre. Nicely tossed up by Chahal, fuller and on off. Mhatre jumps out of the crease and takes the risk of going against the turn. It is skewed over extra cover. Shashank Singh runs in off the ropes and slides. He is on the move when the ball hits his palm, and he fails to cling on. Single taken.

Dube sweeps this away but finds the short fine leg fielder in the way.

Two wides! Fired down leg, full in length. Dube lets it go. A half-stop by Prabhsimran Singh and the ball goes away off the gloves. The batters cross for one.

NO BALL! A cardinal sin for a spinner to overstep. Full and on off, Mhatre reaches out in front and eases it to wide long off for one. Free Hit coming up.

Wide! Down leg, Dube lets it pass. Already an 8-ball over.

Full and at the sticks, Dube knocks it to long on for a single.

Hard length, on middle, angling in. Shivam plays off the back foot and steers it to deep square leg for a single.

 FOUR! Through the gap! At 132 kph, this is overpitched wide outside off. Ayush uses the pace and carves it to the left of the diving backward point fielder for a boundary. 

OUT! TAKEN! Huge moment in the game as two set batters are dismissed in successive overs. And after being dropped twice, Mhatre runs out of luck. Very full and wide by Vyshak, Ayush Mhatre yet again jams the bat down and looks to squeeze it through the backward point and the short third gap, but this time around, he fails to hit it along the ground and airs it to Yuzvendra Chahal at short third. Chahal takes it comfortably over his head. Mhatre looks at the heavens in utter disappointment. Vyshak is over the moon. CSK, from 110/1, are 123/3 now.

Half a shout for caught behind! Not given by the umpire. Kartik Sharma looks perplexed. He feels that it should be a wide and takes the review. Angled in on leg, on a short of a length. Sharma looks to help it away but misses. The UltraEdge shows a scratch when the ball goes past his trousers. A review lost by CSK.

Sharma goes deep in the crease and guides it through third man for a single.

On a hard length, on middle. Dube wrists it in front of deep mid-wicket for one.

2 runs.
