🔥 Turning the Match on Its Head

  • Chahal bagged a 4-wickets-for haul (4 wickets for 32 runs in 3 overs), grabbing four wickets in five balls. His spell sparked a dramatic collapse, leading to CSK finishing at 190 all out

  • Hat-tricks in T20 leagues are rare and game-changing.

  • Chahal became the third bowler to claim two IPL hat-tricks—the first leg-spinner after Amit Mishra and Yuvraj Singh to achieve this milestone
