Bravo took 3 wickets in match and gave only 2 runs and scalped 2 wickets of Glenn Maxwell and Harshal Patel in 20<sup>th<\/sup> over of the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After winning the toss Dhoni opted to field first. Batting first RCB had their dream start as their opening pair of Kohli and Devdutt Paddikal added 111 runs for 1<sup>st<\/sup> wicket. Kohli and Paddikal both scored half centuries, 53 and 70 runs, respectively. Bravo delivered the breakthrough for CSK as he got Kohli in first ball of 14<sup>th<\/sup> over. Once Kohli went to pavilion, RCB started losing their wickets on regular intervals and lost the momentum in the match. In last 4 overs of the match RCB made only 25 runs and lost 5 wickets. Despite of the start RCB had, they posted 156-6 and set the target of 157 for CSK. Bravo and Shardul Thakur took 3 and 2 wickets, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Back to back wins for <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChennaiIPL?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@ChennaiIPL<\/a>! \ud83d\udc4f \ud83d\udc4f<br><br>A convincing victory for <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/CSK?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#CSK<\/a> as they beat <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/RCB?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#RCB<\/a> by 6\u20e3 wickets. \ud83d\udc4c \ud83d\udc4c <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/VIVOIPL?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#VIVOIPL<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/RCBvCSK?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#RCBvCSK<\/a><br><br>Scorecard \ud83d\udc49 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2ivCYOWCBI\">https:\/\/t.co\/2ivCYOWCBI<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/qKo58oFAJb\">pic.twitter.com\/qKo58oFAJb<\/a><\/p>&mdash; IndianPremierLeague (@IPL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IPL\/status\/1441460857464975361?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 24, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>CSK responded strongly to the chase of 157 and all their batters batted beautifully on this small ground.\u00a0 Ruturaj Gaikwad the CSK\u2019s hero against MI, was once again team\u2019s highest run scorer with 38 runs.
