Chennai Super Kings trashed Wayamba by 97 runs | CSK beat Wayamba a report

Wayamba Elevens skipper J Mubarak won the toss and elected to bowl first against Chennai Super Kings in their Champions League T20 match on Wednesday at Centurion, Tshwane.This was a decision that the Wayamba captain would regret as Chennai who have already won their first match against Central Stags have now moved a step closer to semi-finals spot by defeating Wayamba. Chennai went into the match with an unchanged side that beat Stags. On the other hand Wayamba made two changes from the squad that lost to Warriors. Isuru Udana and Shalika Karunanayake comes in palce for Farveez Maharoof and Mahela Udawatte.

CSK trashed Wayamba by 97 runs an embarrasing defeat as nothing really worked for the Wayamba Eleven. Suresh Raina and Murali Vijay scored breezy half centuries as Chennai Super Kings crushed Wayamba by 97 runs to register their second consecutive win in the Champions League Twenty20 on Wednesday. With two victories out of as many matches in Group A, CSK have inched a step closer towards the semifinal race while Wayamba faces elimination.

Sent into bat, Raina scored a blistering 44-ball 87 while Vijay made 68 off 48 deliveries to enable Chennai post a formidable 200/3 in their allotted 20 overs. Raina and Vijay complimented each other well and shared a 137-run second wicket stand that came off just 72 deliveries.Raina bejeweled his innings with six boundaries and as many sixes while Vijay found the fence nine times and crossed it once.

For Wayamba Chanaka Welegadara picked up two wickets for 47 runs off his four overs. Chasing the huge target, Wayamba never got off their hooks and were finally bundled out for 103 in 17.1 overs. Wayamba had a horrible start to their run chase as they lost two of their top-order batsmen inside the third over with just 18 runs on the board. Well a match the Wayamba Elevens would like to wipe from memory
