Chennai Super Kings scored their highest total against Royal Challengers Bangalore at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Monday as they scored 226/6 in 20 overs after being invited to bat first by RCB captain Faf du Plessis. There were plenty of big hits, a monstrous hit of 111m from Shivam Dube but MS Dhoni’s reaction to Moeen Ali’s six during the first innings caught the eyes of fans.
CSK reached a massive total of 226 with some brutal hitting from their batters, except Ruturaj Gaikwad who departed in the third over, all the batters from Dhoni’s side got starts and played their part in helping their side past the 200-run mark.
