You would think its almost physically impossible for McCullum & Smith to score 16 runs in a 6 over powerplay… #ipl

6000 t20 runs for super Baz! Whistles please! #CSK #IdhuNammaSeason #whistlepodu

That’s a maiden wicket! 16/1 after six overs. They are short of runs, we are short of words! #CSK #IdhuNammaSeason #whistlepodu

The first #SIX of the innings by Smith now on the field. 24/1 in 6.4 overs. #DDvCSK

Smith is OUT! Albie morkel shows us his bowling skills by taking a wicket in his first ball. Go #dilliboys! #Dildilli 34/2 for 8.1 overs.

50 up! A slow 50, probably the slowest this season? #CSK #IdhuNammaSeason #whistlepodu
— Chennai Super Kings (@ChennaiIPL) May 12, 2015
#CSK are fighting to reach 120! Do you think captain cool #hotstar @msdhoni will take them beyond 120? #DDvCSK #PepsiIPLonhotstar

Helicopter time! Few more of those please! #CSK #IdhuNammaSeason #whistlepodu

#dilliboys gave it all. Their tight bowling didnt allow @ChennaiIPL to cross 119-6. Good going Daredevils! #DilDilli pic.twitter.com/VGPvX1KaDj

Can the @ChennaiIPL bowlers fight back or will @DelhiDaredevils have a walk in the park? Watch here: http://t.co/brC609jWK7 #DDvCSK

120 runs to win for Delhi! Believe Lions! The game is not over yet! #CSK #IdhuNammaSeason #whistlepodu

14/0 in two overs! Too many runs given already! Come on Chennai! Wickets please! #CSK #IdhuNammaSeason #whistlepodu
— Chennai Super Kings (@ChennaiIPL) May 12, 2015
I have no doubt that Zaheer has been independent India’s best pace bowler after Kapil Dev. (And not based on today’s performance). Do you?

Ishwar strikes again! Bowled him! Dangerous Duminy gone! #CSK #IdhuNammaSeason #whistlepodu
— Chennai Super Kings (@ChennaiIPL) May 12, 2015
.@jpduminy21 chops it on again. Hope we don’t make a meal of this total. Need a partnership right about now. #DilDilli #DDvCSK
— Delhi Daredevils (@DelhiDaredevils) May 12, 2015
It isn’t proving to be easy for the @DelhiDaredevils batsmen either. #hotstar @pandey_ishwar has taken out de Kock and Duminy. #DDvCSK
— hotstar (@hotstartweets) May 12, 2015
Oh.. A very narrow save. @shreyaasiyer03 is NOT out. #DilDilli 59-2 in 8.5 overs #DDvCSK #update

Young Shreyas Iyer cutting CSK down to size with bravado, class…and some luck
— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) May 12, 2015

54 needed from last 10 overs for Delhi and we need eight wickets! #update #CSK #IdhuNammaSeason #whistlepodu

This is @shreyaasiyer03 fourth Half century this season!

#hotstar Shreyas Iyer’s unbeaten 70 off 49 balls on a tricky surface helps @DelhiDaredevils humble the mighty Super Kings. #DDvCSK
