IPL 2018 Final: CSK makes a CHAMPION comeback with Watson's brilliant century
Shane Watson hit the second hundred of his IPL 2018 campaign as Chennai Super Kings humiliated Sunrisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets and with 9 balls to spare to clinch their third IPL title at the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai.
Smashing the second-ever hundred in an IPL final, Watson notched up 117 runs, hitting massive 8 maximums and 11 fours in his 57-ball innings.
Defending 179, Sunrisers kept tight reins on the Super Kings batsmen initially while also taking a crucial wicket of Faf du Plessis. The first four overs saw Chennai mustering just 16 runs.
\Watson failed to open his account in the first 10 balls of the innings, but there was no looking back once he got into the groove.
The former Aussie international stitched a sensational 117-run stand with Suresh Raina(32 off 24) for the third wicket to take the most successful franchise in the IPL history closer to another title.
