In the 15th Indian Premier League on Tuesday, the Chennai Super Kings beat the Royal Challengers Bangalore by 23 runs. Shivam Dube and Robin Uthappa played brilliantly with the bat, and the spinners also did very well. Dube (95 not out) and Uthappa (88 off 50 balls) both made half-centuries when asked to bat. They made a 165-run stand, the highest third-wicket partnership of all time and the highest this season.
When RCB tried to fight back, the young spinner Mahesh Theekshana (4/33) and the captain Ravindra Jadeja (3/39) took seven wickets between them. This was CSK’s 200th IPL game.
There have been four straight losses for the defending champions, but this win ended that. This was only their second loss to the Bangalore team in five games.
Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli were both out in the first five overs of RCB’s chase for 217. Theekshana was the first to take them out, and Mukesh Choudhary took the wicket of Kohli.

At 12, Anuj Rawat also went down in the power play after being caught by Theekshana.
21-year-old spinner Suyash Prabhudessai and Shahbaz Ahmed tried to take the game far with a short 60-run standoff of 33 balls. Then the Sri Lankan spinner, who was bought for Rs 70 lakh in the mega auction, took out both of them.
After the ball hit the inside edge and smashed into the middle stump, Theekshana castled Prabhudessai. Then, he bowled Ahmed out with the carrom ball and won the match.
Dinesh Karthik did scare the crowd with his 14-ball 34, but it was too little, too late for CSK as they got their first points.
Dube and Uthappa’s job was to feast on the RCB’s bowlers at the start. They both hit very good half-centuries.
Before that, Uthappa and Dube showed off their six-hitting skills as they helped CSK fight back from 36 for two.
On the other hand, Uthappa’s 46-ball innings were full of nine sixes and four boundary shots. Dube, on the other hand, hit eight sixes and five fours.
Defending champions CSK will play against Dube and Uthappa, who scored their highest IPL scores. CSK has lost four straight games and is still looking for its first win this season.
Only in the fifth over did Uthappa get his first boundary. It was a cut shot off Mohammed Siraj (0/37). The next over, he hit Akash Deep (0/58) for his first maximum, which came in the sixth over.
A boundary each from Uthappa and Dube raised the stakes. The lanky left-handed batter then hit his first six over long-on off Glenn Maxwell (0/29) to make the game even more exciting.
A lot of runs were scored in just five overs by the pair. CSK reached 133 for two in the 15th over.
This is what Dube did to Wanindu Hasaranga (2/35) in the 11th over. He was very rough on him.
Uthappa and Dube hit all the bowlers with three sixes off Maxwell in the 13th over. CSK made 19 runs in the game.
In the 15th overs, the duo hit Deep hard because it was raining boundaries and sixes here.
Uthappa went on the attack after he made 50. He hit Siraj for two sixes and a four in the 17th over, where 18 runs came.
Then, in the 18th over, Dube hit Deep again, giving up two sixes and a boundary. At that point, 200 looked like it was going to happen. During the 18th over, Deep bled 24 runs.
Uthappa didn’t score a hundred because he fell in the penultimate over, making 14 runs. Dube then hit two sixes in the last over to finish the innings in style.
CSK lost Ruturaj Gaikwad (17) and Moeen Ali (3) for very little money. But then there was the show with Uthappa and Dube, which was very interesting.
Following the death of his sister on Saturday, Harshal Patel left the bio-bubble and didn’t come back. RCB was very sad to see him go.
The RCB players wore black armbands to show support for Patel and his family during the match. This is how it works: IPL 2022: CSK beat RCB by 23 runs to win their first game of the tournament. This was their first win of the match.
