After the initial delay of months, IPL 2020 is here to entertain for a good number of days. The first game was a mouthwatering clash CSK vs MI. MSD for Chennai won the toss and decided to bowl first.
The Mumbai Indians scored 162 for 9 after Chennai Super Kings asked them to bat first. MI got off to a flyer with Rohit and de Kock going all guns blazing but CSK came back with two wick wickets.
Then Saurabh Tiwary played a very good inning by scoring 42 off 31 balls before Faf du Plessis took two fantastic catches to send back him and Hardik Pandya. Towards the end, Lungi Ngidi picked up three wickets as CSK ran through the MI lower middle-order.
Ambati Rayudu and Faf du Plessis smashed valuable half-centuries as Chennai Super Kings beat Mumbai Indians by 5 wickets to get off to the perfect start in IPL 2020 at Abu Dhabi in UAE.
Rayudu scored 71 off 48 balls and du Plessis remained unbeaten on 58 off 44 balls. They had steadied CSK after they lost their openers in the first two overs of the chase.
Here is how Twitter enjoyed CSK vs MI game.

2020 so far taught us to be less materialistic and today also it taught us that money doesn’t really matter. 👍🏻 #MIvCSK
