Ruturaj Gaikwad (57-ball 99, 6x4, 6x6) enjoyed a home run while Devon Conway (55-ball 85, 8x4, 4x6) carried his honeymoon phase onto the cricket field as both Chennai Super Kings openers made merry against a lacklustre Sunrisers Hyderabad attack in an IPL-15 match at the MCA Stadium here on Sunday night.

The duo’s 182-run opening wicket stand, the highest for any wicket for the Chennai Super Kings in IPL history, enabled the MS Dhoni-led outfit post 202-2 after being put in to bat. At the time of going to press, SRH were 89-3 in 10 overs.
