While Chasing the target, CSK did suffer a jolt, but by then they were already at the brink of victory. With this win against Punjab Kings at the Wankhede Stadium, CSK climbed up to the second spot in the points table just below Royal Challengers Bangalore. CSK suffered a horrible season last year, having failed to qualify for the playoffs for the first time in IPL history. Captain MS Dhoni also did not have an IPL to talk about.

On the other hand, Punjab Kings will have to sit down and think about what went wrong for them. That is before they face off against Delhi Capitals in the next match on Sunday. It will be a crucial game for their morale. They will want to get back to winning ways and get some key points. This could determine how things go for the team from Punjab from here on. For MS Dhoni and co., things can only get better if they keep playing the same way that they did against PBKS.
