As Chennai Super Kings (CSK) defeated Delhi Capitals (DC) by six wickets in Qualifier 2 of the IPL 2019 at ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam on Friday, Suresh Raina showcased the ‘Spirit of Cricket’ as the Chinna Thala tied the shoelaces of young Rishabh Pant while the latter was batting during DC’ innings.

Meanwhile, CSK dished out a clinical bowling effort to restrict Shreyas Iyer & Co. from scoring big.
Dwayne Bravo (2/19), Ravindra Jadeja (2/23), Deepak Chahar (2/28) and Harbhajan Singh (2/31) shared eight wickets among them to keep DC in check after CSK skipper MS Dhoni won the toss and opted to bowl first.
Later, the defending champions finished off the game with an over to spare after Faf du Plessis and Shane Watson hit brilliant half-centuries to lead the Men in Yellow into their eighth IPL final.
