Earlier, Dhoni had won the toss and invited Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) to bat at the Sharjah Cricket Ground.

SRH had a poor start and lost Jason Roy, who scored a half-century in the previous fixture, for just two.

Captain Kane Williamson also failed with the bat as he missed a full delivery from Dwayne Bravo. The West Indies all-rounder again hit a boundary to send Priyam Garg back.

Late cameos from Wriddhiman Saha (44) and Abhishek Sharma and Abdul Samad helped SRH post 134/7 in their allotted 20 overs.

Faf du Plessis and Ruturaj Gaikwad provided the right platform for CSK to chase down the small target.

Both shared a 75-run partnership for the first wicket. Gaikwad was dismissed for 45 while du Plessis (41) also missed a half-century.

In the end, CSK held onto the line with two balls to spare.
