Bengaluru: Chennai Super Kings got their act together in the nick of time to eke out an eight-run win over Royal Challengers Bangalore in an Indian Premier League match that produced 444 runs here on Monday.
Devon Conway slammed 83 off 45 deliveries while Shivam Dube blazed away to a 27-ball 52 as CSK posted an imposing 226 for six after asked to bat first. In reply, RCB ended at 218 for eight.
It was a heartbreak for a capacity crowd at Bengaluru’s Chinnaswamy stadium as the fans had to digest yet another close-shave encounter that went against their favour. In the attendance was also Bollywood star Anushka Sharma, who was seen through out the match cheering for hubby Virat Kohli and RCB. But after the match, she was left dejected like another Bangalore fan as Chennai held their nerves to eke out a thrilling victory.
Her reaction after the match has now gone viral on social media.
