DJ Bravo, Champion! It was almost over for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on their comeback after they lost the top order including Thala MS Dhoni. But Bravo turned out to be the Bahubali tonight (Kedar Jadhav being an injured Katappa!). What an inning he played. Dhaga hi khol diya ekdum. While the yellow army had lost all the hopes of making their comeback a memorable one, Bravo fought when it seemed it was going down the barrel for CSK. He sent almost every ball in the space with his blade while the chapter was later closed by Jadhav. CSK ne jeeta 2 saal baad apnawh pehla game against the defending champions after which it was whistle podu all over the Wankhede.
In case if you missed the action, then just set back and scroll down, saara gyaan mil jayega.
23:45 IST It’s wrap up for MI. Sorry prayer Aunty, better luck next time. Bravo makes CSK champion tonight, win game by 1 wicket.
23:38 IST Wait, What? DJ Brovo has raised the temperature. He has eventually turned the plot!
Unbelievable is an understatement. Dwayne Bravo just stealing one from under Mumbai’s nose #MIvCSK
