Chennai Super Kings 134-6 in 20 overs (Faf Du Plessis 29; David Smith 25; Andre Russell 2-26) beat Kolkata Knight Riders 132-9 in 20 overs (Robin Uthappa 39, Ryan ten Doeschate 38; Dwayne Bravo 3-22).
Kolkata suffered a major slump with the bat to hand Chennai Super Kings victory and top spot in the IPL table. The Knight Riders were on track to reach their target of 135, with the run rate under one a ball at one stage, but contrived to let that position slip with some foolish batting to lose by two runs.
