IPL 2019: Chennai hammer Bangalore by 7 wickets
Defending champions Chennai Super Kings kicked off their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2019 campaign on a rousing note by thrashing Royal Challengers Bangalore by seven wickets at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium, here on Saturday.
After wrapping up the visitors on a paltry total of 70 runs, the sixth lowest total in the IPL history, the hosts took 17.5 overs to overhaul the target on a slow Chepauk wicket.
Chasing a low total seemed a child’s play for Chennai, however, the Bangalore bowlers also utilised the favourable conditions to create little panic in hosts’ dug out.
