Jaiswal gave good support with the help of six fours and three sixes. Evin Lewis (27 off 12 balls) set up the game in his opening stand of 77 in 5.2 overs.
Hazlewood (0/54) could not have imagined that he would hit three sixes in his first spell as the match went out of the hands of CSK in the powerpay itself.
Jaiswal, whose game has improved a few notches from last season, was seen flicking Hazlewood to deep mid-wicket and also hit a straight six during that innings.
Dubey, who doesn’t have much footwork, hit some monstrous sixes off Jadeja, Moeen Ali and Sam Curran whenever the ball was thrown into his arc.

He hit four fours and four sixes. Such was Dubey’s dominance that the stylish Sanju Samson (28 off 24 balls) also put on 89 runs for the third wicket in 9.3 overs.
But when the match started, it looked like Gaikwad had taken the stage as he completed a coveted IPL ton with a six off Mustafizur Rahman’s last ball.
Gaikwad smashed nine fours and five sixes in his unbeaten 101 not out off 60 balls to poke fun at the Royals’ bowling attack in their 12th round match. Some of his shots in the off-side area will be remembered for times to come.
Ravindra Jadeja (32 not out from 15 balls) smashed through Royals’ attack at the back-end for a four as CSK added 55 runs in just 3.4 overs.
In fact, in the final over, Jadeja faced four balls, leaving Gaikwad with two balls to spare as he pulled Mustafizur Rahman off the final ball to complete the iconic landmark.
For Royals, leg-spinner Rahul Tewatia was the most successful bowler, but his joy of taking three wickets was spoiled by Gaikwad with two sixes – one at long-off and the other. in sitescreen.
The sixes at mid-wicket off left-arm pacer Akash Singh and Mustafizur were delightful as it landed on the edge of the grass at least 20 yards behind the ropes.
Punekar isn’t someone who is muscular, but a “strong core” (according to him) and stable base allows him to maintain shape for the big shots as the Royals got to know that day.
The way he came down the track and tossed seamer Chetan Sakariya for a one-bounce boundary, it looked like he was facing a spinner with enough time at his disposal.
There were many boundaries in the arc between cover and mid-off area as his driving was majestic.
Gaikwad’s score sequence since the resumption of IPL is 88, 38, 30, 45 and now 101 not out.
There hasn’t been a single failure so far and his partnership with Faf du Plessis (25) has been the cornerstone of CSK’s good batting performance.
None of their retired stars like Suresh Raina, skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Ambati Rayudu, all IPL legends in their own right, have contributed much with the bat, mainly due to the power of du Plessis and Gaekwad. Has-Pack Started.
