Kane Williamson looked in fine form on the big day as he batted with utmost ease against spinners and pacers. But Karn Sharma held his nerve and threw one wide as he saw Williamson dancing down the track. The ball turned wide and SRH skipper could not connect. From thereon, there was chance of return as Dhoni whipped the bails off to give CSK their big wicket. (Photo: Rajesh Jadhav / Deccan Chronicle)
Although Sunrisers lost Shreevats Goswami early, they Shikhar Dhawan-Kane Williamson partnership looked to have settled the ship before Ravindra Jadeja dismissed the southpaw. Dhawan tried to hoick one over the leg-side but missed it completely and the ball, after hitting Dhawan's thigh, disturbed the timber. (Photo: Rajesh Jadhav / Deccan Chronicle)
While the final promised a lot of action, there was some drama even before the ball was bowled. While MS Dhoni tossed the coin and Kane Williamson called tails. Sanjay Manjrekar got confused about who flicked the coin, who called what, even as Dhoni kept telling him that it was Williamson who called tails and not heads. May be, even Manjrekar had some final nerves. Fortunately for all, Dhoni laughed and settled the matter with characteristic calm. (Photo: BCCI)
