Asked to bat first, Chennai Super Kings were in deep trouble as pacer Umesh Yadav tested the openers with his pace and swing and removed both the openers for 28 runs. Robin Uthappa looked good for his 28-run knock but was outfoxed by Varun Chakravarthy and brilliant stumping by Sheldon Jackson saw him back in the hut.
