KXIP 153 All out.. Ngidi 4-1-10-4

KXIP will qualify if CSK get All out for 99 or less 😋

CSK are the most consistent team in the IPL

CSK have finished in the top-4 in the points table in each of the nine seasons that they have been part of IPL - the only team to do so.

Suresh Raina has scored 300-plus runs in each of the 11 IPL season - the only player to do so#CSKvKXIP
