This is reason why Chris Gayle is known as the most destructive batsman of the world.

Some people think that Gayle is not fit for IPL but this inning is an answer to these people that no can replace Gayle. This is the inning on the basis of that KXIP set a good target of 197 of 7 wicket. Do you why gayle was playing to good in this match? Because he implemented IPL Betting Tips in this match to improve his batting.

Let’s take a look of CSK batting, it was very disappointing to see MS Dhoni's unbeaten 79 went in vain as Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) beat Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by four runs in a thrilling Indian Premier League (IPL) clash at Mohali on Sunday. In a pulsating encounter, Dhoni was only supported by Ambati Rayudu (49) in the middle overs. Dhoni stole the show with his batting prowess as he hit six fours and five sixes in his 44-ball 79.

Things took a dramatic turn after the second time-out, with 64 needed off the last four overs. Dhoni, on 32 off 26 balls then, was in the middle of a severe struggle with his back spasms, and nobody really gave him a chance. Mohit Sharma conceded 19 runs in the eighteenth over to set the tone but it was Andrew Tye's last over - the penultimate of the innings - that set the buzzers ringing. 19 runs were taken off him, with Dhoni carting Tye for four and two sixes to more than make up for Ravindra Jadeja's dismissal.

17 runs were needed off the last over, Mohit Sharma had the ball, and CSK were nearing another heist; and Dhoni's form and his familiarity to Mohit's slower-ball variations made a strong case for it. But Mohit started the over really well, nailing the full-and-wide Yorker right for about five times in the over to deny CSK a third win on the trot. Let’s take a look of scorecard of CSK and KXIP.
