CSK vs KKR, IPL 2024 Highlights: CSK makes it 3 in three at home as bowlers and captain Gaikwad shine
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) ended the Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) unbeaten run at the start of the 2024 edition of the IPL with a magnificent 7-wicket victory led by the bowlers and skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad's spirited half-century. Knight Riders scored just 87 runs in their last 15 overs after being 50/1 in the first five overs as their batters failed to understand the pace of the pitch and CSK bowlers had a field day. 138 was never going to be enough and Gaikwad's gritty knock helped CSK get home with 14 balls to spare. Ravindra Jadeja was the player of the match for his figures of 3/18.

"We would've bowled first too"
Shreyas Iyer: We would have bowled first. Think the attitude and approch irrespective of the situation, appreciate that about the players. We have assessed the conditions and adapted well. Everyone has stepped up and played fearless cricket. Everyone is stepping up at the right time. It's (head to head record) history, that was a different team and different situation. Our character is going to define how we are going to play here. We just need to keep things simple, that's better for us. Our focus is on the present. We are sticking to the same team.

Pitch Report
65m and 66m square boundaries respectively, 80m down the ground. The pitch is rock hard, so the batters will have a great time here and the bowlers can expect some bounce. The spinners might extract some bounce as well. Just a couple of cracks on the surface, but overall a good batting wicket, reckons Graeme Swann.
