CSK vs SRH Live streaming: Where to watch today's IPL 2026 match?

CSK had gathered strong momentum recently with three consecutive wins before their run came to an end in the previous encounter.

Chennai Super Kings kept their playoff hopes alive with a fighting 180 for 7 against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Match 63 of IPL 2026 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Monday.

 

Asked to bat first after winning the toss, CSK rode on aggressive knocks from Dewald Brevis and Kartik Sharma to post a challenging total despite regular breakthroughs from the SRH bowlers. Hyderabad now require 181 runs in 20 overs to confirm their playoff qualification with a game to spare, while CSK need a successful defence to stay firmly in the top-four race.

 

Samson Provides Explosive Start

 

CSK began brightly with skipper Sanju Samson taking the attack to the SRH pace attack straightaway. The wicketkeeper-batter smashed 27 off just 13 balls and helped CSK race to 31 runs before Pat Cummins provided the first breakthrough by having him caught behind.

 

 

Youngster Urvil Patel continued the momentum briefly with a brisk 13 off eight deliveries, including a couple of attacking strokes, but Sakib Hussain cleaned him up to pull things back for SRH.

 

At the end of the powerplay, CSK were placed at a healthy 56 for 2.

 

Kartik Sharma’s Cameo Keeps Momentum Alive

 

Kartik Sharma then injected momentum into the innings with a fearless knock in the middle overs. The batter struck 32 runs off only 19 deliveries and counterattacked the SRH bowlers with intent.

 

However, Pat Cummins once again delivered at a crucial stage, dismissing Kartik before removing Ruturaj Gaikwad for a sluggish 15 off 21 balls. The double strike put CSK under pressure as the innings threatened to lose momentum.

 

Brevis Leads CSK Fightback

 

Dewald Brevis played the standout hand of the innings for CSK. The South African batter mixed aggression with smart strike rotation and stitched together a vital partnership with Shivam Dube to revive the innings.

 

Brevis looked set for a half-century before Eshan Malinga ended his enterprising knock of 44 off 27 balls. His innings included several powerful strokes that ensured CSK maintained a strong scoring rate heading into the final overs.

 

Dube, meanwhile, struggled to find fluency during his 26-run knock from 23 deliveries before Sakib Hussain dismissed him.

 

Late Contributions Push CSK To 180

 

In the closing overs, CSK managed valuable finishing touches through Prashant Veer and Akeal Hosein. Veer chipped in with 11 off nine balls, while Hosein remained unbeaten on three from one delivery.

 

Despite SRH pulling things back with timely wickets, CSK managed to reach a competitive 180 for 7 on a surface that offered assistance to both batters and bowlers.

The coin flip of the match went in CSK's way who opted to bat first.

 

Captain's take after toss:

 

Ruturaj Gaikwad (CSK): We are looking to bat first. Looking a bit dry and we want to put up a good total. Even the last game against MI, it wasn't the best of wickets to bat on. Nothing complicated and we want to keep it simple. MS is still here but he is not fit enough to play this game. We have one change.

 

Pat Cummins (SRH): It's T20 cricket and its not easy every game. He knows its not going to work every game. We would have probably wanted to bowl. Same team as the last game.
