Batting first on the slow surface at Chepauk, Chennai pulled off a great start, thanks to a composed batting performance from their opening pair of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway. The duo remained at the crease till the 11th over when Gaikwad returned to the hut for a 44-ball 60. Following the wicket, Gujarat tried to grab the momentum and picked up some back-to-back wickets. Riding on Conway’s 40-run knock and some cameos, Chennai could post a worth-fighting 172 on the board.

In reply, Gujarat’s batting unit surrendered early infront of Chennai’s spinner duo of Ravindra Jadeja and Maheesh Theekshana. The only notable score came from Shubman Gill’s bat as the star opener scored 42 runs off 38 deliveries. Rashid Khan tried to accelerate the innings in the end but finally fell 15 runs short of the target. Chennai pacers also shone on the occasion with Deepak Chahar and Matheesha Pathirana fetching two scalps each.
