NEW DELHI: Delhi Capitals were never in the game against Chennai Super Kings at the Ferozeshah Kotla on Saturday afternoon. It always appeared to be an event meant to celebrate MS Dhoni as the entire stadium turned yellow. Through the 40 overs under the scorching sun, CSK roasted the Capitals as they went on a rampage to plunder 223/3 before restricting Capitals to mere146/9 to emphatically place a berth in the playoffs to be played in Chennai.
Much of this match was built around Dhoni getting another game at Chepauk. Openers Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway went about killing the game in the first 14 overs of the match raking up 141 for the first wicket before Gaikwad fell for 79 off 50.
