Just when it looked towards the end that Gujarat Titans have 80-20 chances of sealing the victory when CSK needed 10 runs off the last two balls, Ravindra Jadeja, who has always been shadowed by Dhoni did the unimaginable. He hit a six off the penultimate ball and followed it up by hitting a four down the leg.
