Can Rashid Khan get Ruturaj Gaikwad out of the equation here? The best batter in the Chennai line-up in this innings. Run out on the cards! Gaikwad just survives.

OUT! Big wicket as Ben Stokes edges one to the ever-so-reliant Wriddhiman Saha. The current run-rate is at 9 runs per over which is quite healthy by any standards.

As the powerplay comes to an end, Chennai will be satisfied with the score they have reached. A set Ruturaj Gaikwad can be a nightmare for the opposition and with Ben Stokes in the line-up, you can expect fireworks later on.

First blood to Mohammed Shami. A peach of a delivery from the pacer just went through Devon Conway's stumps. Moeen Ali is the new batter.

MS Dhoni at the toss: Were also looking to bowl. Looks a good wicket and I don't think it will change. Don't know if there will be dew because it rained last night. You want to play in front of people. This stadium is twice the capacity of other stadiums. Fantastic atmohsphere. Preparation was good. We assembled quite early. It's a luxury to have (impact player). It becomes slightly easy to take the decision because you can use it at any time. Influence of allrounder has become slightly less because of the rule.

Both MS Dhoni and Hardik Pandya are in the middle for the toss. As per the pitch report, it has a nice coverage of mild grass which will force both skippers to think about what to do exactly.
