Karn Sharma – 5. His leg-breaks were easy pickings for Dhawan and Co on and unforgiving ground, as he went for 34 from three overs. Sportzpics for BCCI
DELHI CAPITALS RATINGS: Prithvi Shaw – 3. The Indian opener’s horror run continues. This time he was caught and bowled second ball of the reply without scoring by Chahar. Sportzpics for BCCI
Shikhar Dhawan – 9. Rode his luck – he was dropped three times, and spared caught behind on review – to make his first IPL century. Sportzpics for BCCI
Ajinkya Rahane – 5. Cannot catch a break with the bat. He lasered a cut to Curran at point who held a fine catch when he was on eight. Sportzpics for BCCI
Shreyas Iyer – 6. The captain made a run a ball 23 before lofting Bravo to Du Plessis. Sportzpics for BCCI
Marcus Stoinis – 7. So powerful, he managed to hit two sixes without appearing to nail either of them. His 24 from 14 was handy for his side. Sportzpics for BCCI
Alex Carey – 5. Struggled for timing and power after coming in at a vital point of the chase. Sportzpics for BCCI
Axar Patel – 9. Deprived a wicket when Dhawan dropped Du Plessis, but he was his standard thrifty self. Then hit his second, third and fifth balls for six to win the match. Sportzpics for BCCI
Ravichandran Ashwin – 6. Conceded three boundaries and a six, and went wicketless, too, on a challenging evening. Sportzpics for BCCI
Tushar Deshpande – 7. Another impressive display from the newcomer, even if he did suffer a little in his later overs. Sportzpics for BCCI
Kagiso Rabada – 7. Started perfectly, with the first maiden Sharjah has seen this season. Ended less well, with two sixes and a wide in his last. Sportzpics for BCCI
Anrich Nortje – 6. So much anticipation, given his quest to hit 160kph, but he was more canny than quick this time. Suffered in the final over. Sportzpics for BCCI
CHENNAI SUPER KINGS RATINGS: Sam Curran – 7. Had another chance at the top of the order, but lasted just three balls. Held a fine catch, and bowled a brilliant penultimate over of the match. Sportzpics for BCCI
Faf du Plessis – 7. A fourth half-century of the tournament, after three games without one, as he provided the foundations for his side. Sportzpics for BCCI
Shane Watson – 6. Hit six fours, but was not able to score as freely as he would have liked, before he was bowled by Nortje for 36. Sportzpics for BCCI
Ambati Rayudu – 8. After Du Plessis and Watson had done the groundwork, he and Jadeja obliged with a late onslaught. Rayudu made 45 not out from 25. Sportzpics for BCCI
MS Dhoni – 4. Fell to an ungainly swipe against a Nortje slower ball, having made just three off five balls, and dropped Dhawan, too. Sportzpics for BCCI
Ravindra Jadeja – 7. Another late-overs gem with the bat, as he made 33 not out from 13 balls, including two sixes off Nortje in the 20th over. Tough ask bowling the last over of the match. Sportzpics for BCCI
Kedar Jadhav – 5. Restored to the line up in place of Piyush Chawla, but still did not get the chance to redeem himself as he was not required with the bat. Sportzpics for BCCI
Dwayne Bravo – 6. Was as savvy as usual, but was not available when Dhoni needed him to bowl the last over, as he had been off the field injured. Sportzpics for BCCI
Deepak Chahar – 8. A wicket maiden started Chennai’s defence off well, and he bowled his four through, finishing with two for 15. Dropped Dhawan on 25, though, which was a big miss. Sportzpics for BCCI
Shardul Thakur – 5. Lacked some of the pep he had showed in earlier games, as he went for 39 from his four overs. Sportzpics for BCCI
