MS Dhoni made way to the pavilion on the score of 10, Sam Curran for out on a duck. All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was on seven when he made way to the pavilion. Needless to say that this was quite a big disappointment when the batsmen got on such a low score. In the post-match interview, he said that they need to do something about the batting. "It is almost the same thing that is happening maybe the individuals are different but I think we are better off playing the other way round - play the big shots and even if you get out it is fine because we can't leave too many after the 15th or 16th over that just puts too much pressure on the lower order batsmen, " he said during the interview.

Chennai Super Kings are placed on number six of the IPL 2020 points table with RCB jumping to number four of the tally. Virat Kohli and men have eight points in their tally.
