  CSK vs PBKS: Punjab win by 4 wickets

  Last ball - 3 to win. 2 for the Super Over - But Raza has done it.

  It was a slower ball on the stumps and Raza gets inside the line and helps it over backward square leg.

  The ball kept rolling away to the cushions and the fielder chases it and pulls it back, but by the time he throws the ball back to Dhoni, the batters have taken three runs.

  What a game!

  To be fair to the third ump, it was touch and go if a spike on the boot grazed the cushion or not.
