England’s Jos Buttler struck a half-century as Rajasthan Royals claimed a tense three-run win over Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Buttler’s 52 from 36 balls set up Rajasthan’s 175-8, supported by Shimron Hetmyer’s unbeaten 30. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Needing 21 from the final over, Sandeep Sharma bowled two wides before two MS Dhoni sixes set up a last-ball finish.<\/span><\/p>\n

With five required for a Chennai victory, Dhoni only managed a single and they finished 172-6.<\/span><\/p>\n

Former India skipper Dhoni, 41, rolled back the years with his innings of 32 from 17 balls, leading a recovery from 113-6 with Ravindra Jadeja, who finished unbeaten on 25 from 15 balls.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chennai faced a challenging task of scoring 40 from the last 12 balls, but Dhoni and Jadeja were inspired by their home crowd until Sandeep held his nerve to deny them with a perfect yorker.<\/span><\/p>\n

England white-ball skipper Buttler had earlier struggled to find his usual fluency on a tricky pitch, but hit three sixes in his knock, before he was bowled by international team-mate Moeen Ali, who took 1-21.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moeen fell for just seven in Chennai’s chase as their middle order stuttered following opener Devon Conway’s 50.<\/span><\/p>\n

India spinners Yuzvendra Chahal and Ravichandran Ashwin led Rajasthan’s bowling attack with two wickets each.<\/span><\/p>\n

England Test captain Ben Stokes missed his second consecutive game for Chennai, although there was no reason given for his absence.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
