NEW DELHI: Chennai Super Kings clinched a commanding seven-wicket victory over the Kolkata Knight Riders in the Indian Premier League encounter on Monday at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
The match witnessed a scintillating display of cricketing prowess, with CSK bouncing back from two consecutive losses to secure a convincing win over KKR. Led by skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad‘s stellar batting performance, CSK successfully chased down KKR‘s total with 14 balls to spare, much to the delight of the home crowd.

Beyond the on-field action, a poignant moment unfolded as Dhoni shared a special meeting with KKR mentor Gautam Gambhir after the match.
