IPL 2018, Match 56: Chennai Super Kings beat Kings XI Punjab by five wickets

Middle-order batsman Suresh Raina scored 61 runs off 48 balls as Chennai Super Kings thrashed Kings XI Punjab by five wickets to knock them out of the IPL 2018.

Earlier, young paceman Lungi Ngidi took four wickets for just 10 runs but Karun Nair hit a timely half-century to help Kings XI Punjab recover from a top-order collapse and post 153.

When Punjab batsmen needed to fire in unison, only Karun Nair showed stomach for fight with his 26-ball knock, which was laced with three fours and five sixes.

It was South African paceman Ngidi (4/10) who triggered a top-order collapse as he swung the ball both ways to confound the Punjab batsmen.
