Earlier in the day, CSK won the toss and welcomed DC to bat first.
Openers Shikhar Dhawan (35) and Prithvi Shaw gave Delhi an excellent start and formed a 94-run stand.
Shaw bagged a well-deserved half-century before Piyush Chawla dismissed him for 64 and Dhawan in quick successions.
Rishabh Pant (37*) and Shreyas Iyer (26) kept the scoreboard ticking with Marcus Stoinis (5*) providing the final push to help Delhi Capitals hoist 175/3.
