So then Chennai Super Kings have been defeated on their home turf by Deccan Chargers who have won this match by 31 runs. Its an important win for the Chargers as they had started this edition with a defeat against the Kolkata Knight Riders. Well they batted first  and piled up 190 on the board which was always going to be tough if the chasing side loses early wickets. CSK needed somebody to play a Yusuf Pathan knock but that kind of innings doesn't come too often!
