NEW DELHI: Tushar Deshpande's exceptional bowling in the powerplay proved to be a game-changer for the Chennai Super Kings in their 78-run victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad recognized that the pacer's performance infused the team with the momentum they had been lacking this season.
Deshpande's spirited effort yielded figures of 4/27 in three overs, with three of those wickets coming during the powerplay, which dismantled the formidable SRH batting lineup spearheaded by Travis Head.
