'Na dare, na gym kare, bas hat-trick le Chahal kare' – Fans erupt as Yuzi Chahal scripts magical over against CSK at Chepauk

Yuzvendra Chahal delivered a spell for the ages at Chepauk, completely turning the match in favour of Punjab Kings with a four-wicket over against Chennai Super Kings. After being smashed for a six in the early part of the 19th over, Chahal proved his champion's mindset by coming back to pick a hat-trick and follow that up with the massive wicket of MS Dhoni to complete a fantasy performance.

Chahal’s final figures read 4/32 in three overs, and his brilliance ensured that CSK collapsed from 160/4 in 16 overs to 190 all out in 19.1 overs. His hat-trick victims were Deepak Hooda, Anshul Kamboj, and Noor Ahmad, while Dhoni’s wicket completed the stunning over. It was the first-ever hat-trick against CSK in IPL history and only the second hat-trick recorded at Chepauk, after Lakshmipathy Balaji’s effort way back in 2008.

Chahal’s Hat-Trick Seals Historic Collapse for CSK at Chepauk

Already the highest wicket-taker in IPL history, Chahal became just the third bowler to claim two IPL hat-tricks, joining the likes of Yuvraj Singh and Amit Mishra, who leads with three. Interestingly, both of Chahal's hat-tricks have come for different franchises, with his first coming for the Rajasthan Royals against KKR in 2022. He also became the fourth player to register a hat-trick for Punjab Kings, following in the footsteps of Yuvraj Singh.

Again, CSK's middle order did not cash in on a solid platform. From 160/4, they collapsed spectacularly, losing six wickets for only 30 runs in the last overs.
