Shivam Dubey bowled in the 19th over. Lucknow scored 25 runs, including two sixes and three fours, in Dubey’s over. The game, which had been in Chennai’s hands till then, slipped out of their hands with this single over. Dubey, who had earlier become Chennai’s hero with his explosive performance in batting, was seen becoming Chennai’s villain in bowling.
Earlier in the day, Chennai lost the toss and opted to bat first.
For Lucknow, Avesh Khan, Andrew Tye and Ravi Bishnoi took two wickets each.
