A heroic eff꧅ort from Kedar Jadhav at the end helped Chennai Super Kings edged past three-time champions Mumbai Indians by 🀅one wicket in the opening match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2018 at the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai.
CSK has now narrowed their head-to-head record against MI to 11-12 with a stunning win over their arch-rivals on Saturday. Chasing 166, the visitors scampered home with a ball to spare and had Dwayne Bravo to thank for playing an I💙PL classic, when all hope looked lost.
Bravo scored 68 from 30 deliveries and was dismissed with seven runs to get off the final over. Kedar Jadhav, who had retired hurt with a hamstring injury, hobbled back in to face Mustafizur Rahman. After playing three dots, he walked across and paddled a six over fine leg before crunching a four past covers to finish off one of the most iꦓncredible season openers.
CSK skipper MS Dhoni’s reaction to Kedar Jadhav’s hit is worth watching.
