After early wickets, MS Dhoni launched scathing attacks on RR bowlers scoring 28 runs off last over

IPL 2019 Rajasthan Royals Chennai Super Kings

After tottering in first 12 overs, Chennai Super Kings were taken to a safe total of 175 runs thanks to MS Dhoni's solid knock of 75 runs off 46 balls. Dhoni hit 4 fours and 4 sixes in his solid innings.

Jofra Archer was the pick of the bowlers picking up 2 wickets and giving away just 17 runs in his quota of 4 overs.

Suresh Raina also played a good knock of 36 runs before falling.

"Honestly it has been the worst conditions I have bowled in. It is very very hard and challenging with the amount of dew. The ball has been wet for 8-9 overs the seam is slimy and then the new hard ball went the distance. We played here yesterday and there was a lot more dew, but there is still a lot of dew getting onto the ball. It is very hard to bowl yorker and to bowl full. I have experienced such conditions once in Bangladesh, but no, I haven't trained for conditions like these," said Jofra Archer in innings break.

Rajasthan are out for chase in the middle.
