Chennai Super Kings defeated Punjab Kings by six wickets to register their first win in the Indian Premier League here on Friday.
Opting to bowl, Deepak Chahar returned with impressive figures of four for 13 as CSK dished out a clinical bowling and fielding display to restrict Punjab to a below-par 106 for eight.
Chahar, known for his ability to pick heaps of wickets in the powerplay, lived up to his billing and reputation today after an indifferent start to the tournament against the Capitals.
Shahrukh Khan top-scored for Punjab with a 36-ball 47.
Chasing the paltry target, Moeen Ali made 46, while Faf du Plessis remained unbeaten on 36 as CSK reached home in 15.4 overs.
Mohammed Shami was the pick of the bowlers for Punjab with figures of 2/21.
