Rajasthan Royals v Chennai Super Kings - IPL 5 – Royals crawl to 126 runs – Live Score and Update
Rajasthan Royals 126/6 (20/20 ov) - Chennai Super Kings won the toss and chose to field
Thursday, May 10: After being put into bat by Chennai Super Kings on losing the toss, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rajasthan-c837 Royals have managed to post a small total of 126 runs for the loss of six wickets in their IPL-5 clash at Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur.
The side failed to get off to commendable start and were then left flabbergasted when they just could not bat on a bowling track.
Skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Dravid-c2229, was the first wicket to fall in the match as he departed after scoring just four runs, leaving the side on a tally of six.
Chennai then hit jackpot when they nabbed the wicket of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SR-Watson-c2558 for five runs at a time when the Royals were lingering on a tally of 28.
Opener AM Rahane and middle-order batsman STR Binny then tried to bring some stability in the batting line-up as they resisted the bowlers, preventing the demise of another wicket, but this resistance was short-lived as with 40 runs on the board, the dependable Rahane took to the showers on losing his wicket after scoring 17 runs.
The batting side was clearly feeling the heat as they were losing wickets at almost random, giving Chennai many moments to gloat in glory.
STR Binny was the fourth wicket of the day as he departed after amassing an innings of 27 runs.
Nonetheless, the highlight of Rajasthan’s innings was the 33-run knock by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/BJ-Haddin-c1170 Hodge which actually prevented the side from faltering on a total below 100 runs.
Hodge was the last wicket to fall as he departed at a time when his team had managed to pile 115 runs on the board.
Earlier after winning the toss, Chennai skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MS-Dhoni-c2028, while admitting the shortcomings of his side was hoping for rain to intervene during the match that would have helped his side secure a point and keep in the running for landing a place in the play-offs.
Now with this small total to overcome, Chennai should roar towards victory without any hassle, unless Rajasthan pull off an out of this world bowling performance.
