Still, Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis played brilliantly and added 78 runs, followed by Cameron Green, who added some valuable runs at the end. Mitchell Santner bowled economically for the Super Kings. Can the visitors chase this target, or will the home team restrict them below 200? Let's find out.
