Meanwhile, an incident during the match involving Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Virat Kohli went viral on social media. Dhoni's remarkable experience and understanding of the game helped CSK get the crucial wicket of Virat Kohli during the match.
Dhoni was seen strategizing from behind the wicket as he laid a trap during the match to dismiss former RCB captain Virat.
Mukesh Choudhary came to bowl the fifth over against Virat. Dhoni placed a fielder at deep square leg as he knew that Virat often plays a shot towards there while facing short-pitched balls. As it turned out, Virat played a lofted pull shot off Choudhary's delivery and got caught by Shivam Dube at deep mid-wicket.
