India, April 4 -- When playing evening T20 games in the subcontinent, the team bowling second mostly finds itself under pressure because dew makes the ball difficult to grip.

In their first home game of the season, at the M A Chidambaram Stadium, on Friday, Chennai Super Kings had reasons to worry after losing the toss against Punjab Kings and being put into bat.

At the break, though the dew had yet to set in, which was good news for the home side bowlers. Having posted a total of 209/5 they would have been fairly confident of defending the runs.

But, for them to win, getting a couple of early breakthroughs was important. To their supporters' disappointment, that didn't happen.
