Shane Watson Rose to Occasion by a Century


 Watson scores Big against his former IPL team 

CSK Vs RR match 17 of IPL and it was only 4th game for CSK and Watto delivers big!

CSK have been put by RR to bat first comfortably put an mammoth total of 204 for RR

Opening the batting for CSK, the former Australian all-rounder looked in good touch from the start and spanked 9 sixes and six fours four to reach the three-figure mark in 51 balls. This was also Watson’s third IPL hundred and fourth in T20 cricket. Incidentally, Watson’s has hit two centuries for Rajasthan Royals but scored one against them for CSK.

And not to forget Suresh Raina the star of CSK's batting lineup also played a crucial hand by playing aggressive shots and utilising powerplay moreover giving strike to Watson he scored enterprising Innings of 46(29) which included 9 boundaries in it.

Jadeja,bravo,Dhoni contributed well to team to empower them to a total of 204/5 in their 20 overs 


Following to the score , CSK's bowlers responded brilliantly by bowling to the plan executed what they want . Shardul Thakur and Deepak chahar took each wicket in powerplay to dismiss both the openers of RR. And it was a horror of a start for Rajasthan

Ben stokes looked like a lone warrior for the team played to attack the bowlers and departed after scoring 45 Buttler on the other hand got out cheaply to Bravo  

And from thereafter it was too easy for Csk bowlers to bowl then out cheaply

Deepak chahar, Karn Sharma,Thakur,Bravo took 2 wickets and Rajasthan have been bowled out for 140.
