Watch: Kavya Maran's Joyous Celebration As Harshal Patel Dismisses MS Dhoni

The abysmal IPL 2025 campaign of Chennai Super Kings faced yet another setback on Friday as they suffered a five-wicket loss against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Playing at their own fortress - Chepauk, the MS Dhoni-led side completely succumbed against SRH's bowling attack and got bundled out for 154. Later in the chase, SRH did face some hiccups but went across the line with eight balls to spare. Pacer Harshal Patel was the star performer for Hyderabad with his four-wicket haul as he also gave SRH co-owner Kavya Maran a brilliant moment to celebrate.

There were contrasting emotions on the ground on Friday as CSK were having a tough time on the field. In the 17th over, Harshal dismissed Dhoni, who was caught by Abhishek Sharma.

As the legendary wicketkeeper-batter was making his way back to the dugout with a disappointing look on his face, the camera panned towards Kavya, who joyously celebrated his dismissal.

Earlier in the day, she also gave a memorable reaction after SRH batting all-rounder Kamindu Mendis pulled off a sensational catch.

CSK batter Dewald Brevis smashed a powerful flat shot down the ground at long-off where Mendis was stationed. It was a half-volley from SRH pacer Harshal Patel and Brevis had slammed it really hard. The ball was curving away from Mendis but the ambidextrous jumped to his left to take a superb catch.

Talking about the match, Harshal Patel bagged a four-fer as SRH bowled CSK out for 154, before Ishan Kishan, Kamindu Mendis and Nitish Kumar Reddy played handy cameos to see their side through with eight balls to spare.

With his defeat, CSK almost bowed out of the play-offs race even as SRH stayed alive
