IPL 2020: Jos Buttler Keeps Rajasthan Royals Afloat After Win Vs Chennai Super Kings - Highlights

Struggling Rajasthan Royals climb to fifth, Chennai Super Kings slide to bottom. Highlights of CSK vs RR here

Rajasthan Royals defeated Chennai Super Kings by seven wickets in their Indian Premier League match in Abu Dhabi, UAE on Monday. Batting first, Chennai Super Kings were stopped at 125 for five at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium. In reply, RR chased down the target in 17.3 overs. Well, that means CSK can now only get a maximum of 14 points. Three teams already have more than ten points -- Delhi Capitals on 14, and Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore on 12 each after nine rounds respectively. And with that, the three-time champions are as good as out of the 13th season. But MS Dhoni, as promised in the post-match speech, will surely play for the pride. By the way, the legend was playing his 200th IPL match. What an anti-climactic end to it. (Scorecard | Points Table | News)
