D Chahar to S Goswami, Outside off on a good length, worked to third man for one run.
D Chahar to K Williamson, Run out chance missed! Don't think Dhoni realized how much time he had. Speared full on the pads, Williamson flicks it behind square leg and the batsmen take two. Goswami, however, calls for the third and the two Hyderabad players are off. Now, this is dangerous as Harbhajan fires the throw to Dhoni, who looks to parry it back on the stumps after leaping first. Had he taken the bails off normally, Goswami would have been gone.
D Chahar to K Williamson, FOUR! Oh, wow! All class from Kane. This is unreal. Back of a length and he has some room outside off, wastes no time in rocking back and cutting it fiercely through point for a boundary.
D Chahar to S Goswami, Some width offered outside off, steered behind point for one.
D Chahar to K Williamson, A lot of swing on offer for Deepak Chahar. Good length ball on off, going away from the batsman, it's run down to third man with an open face for a single.
L Ngidi to S Goswami, Edged and FOUR! With the way he's moving the ball, maybe a second slip should have been in place. Easier said in hindsight I suppose. Length delivery moving away, around off, Goswami plays away from his body and gets a thick edge past the slip fielder for a boundary.
L Ngidi to S Goswami, Hits the deck hard as he holds the length back a bit this time, on leg, Goswami backs away, gets cramped for room as he chops it down on the off side. No run taken.
L Ngidi to K Williamson, Pushes this full delivery just wide of mid off and gets to the other end quickly.
L Ngidi to K Williamson, Full in length outside the line of off stump, driven off the inner half to mid on.
L Ngidi to K Williamson, Cut in half! Ripper from Lungi. Length delivery around off, shapes back in and Williamson can't do anything about that. He'll feel lucky it just goes past the inside edge and into Dhoni's gloves. The Chennai skipper makes a muted appeal, but nothing from the umpire.
L Ngidi to S Goswami, Angles across a length delivery around off, Goswami gets off the mark with a punch behind the diving point fielder. Single taken.
Lungi Ngidi to bowl from the other end.
D Chahar to K Williamson, FOUR! Third on the trot! 12 off the over and a wicket to go along with it. All happening here at the very beginning. Sprayed on the pads again, Kane Williamson flicks it fine down the leg side, comfortably sending it across the boundary line.
D Chahar to K Williamson, FOUR! Two in two for the Hyderabad skipper! Chahar looks for the swing but there isn't any, fires it on the pads and Williamson flicks it aerially through backward square leg for another boundary.
D Chahar to K Williamson, FOUR! And there it is! Shot from a man oozing with confidence. Full and wide outside off, Williamson lunges forward and drives it sweetly through the gap in the covers for a boundary.
D Chahar to K Williamson, On the fuller side again, outside off, defended again with soft hands on the off side.
D Chahar to K Williamson, Nice shape on this again. Fuller in length around off and it moves away, Williamson plants his front foot forward and blocks it out.
Skipper Kane Williamson walks in next. He's going to have to play a big one tonight with Shikhar Dhawan gone so early.
D Chahar to S Dhawan, OUT! BOWLED 'EM! Shikhar Dhawan is gone first ball! Literally, the absolute perfect start for Chennai. Deepak Chahar comes steaming in and lands it on a length around off, it shapes back in a touch and Dhawan is undone by that. Looks to play at it but gets an inside edge back on which rattles the stumps. The Yellow Army rejoices.
