Chennai Super Kings knew that they will have to win all of their remaining games in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 to keep their playoff hopes alive, starting with the match against Delhi Capitals.
While DC skipper Rishabh Pant won the toss and asked CSK to bat first, the opening pair of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway got their side off to a flying start.
Conway in particular was on fire as he scored 87 runs in 49 balls, including three back to back fours against Kuldeep Yadav,

While Gaikwad and Conway stitched together an opening stand of 110-runs, their partnership had plenty of highlight reels, but the three fours which the New Zealand batter struck against Yadav highlighted how he had the ability to play with immense ease against spin, something which prompted fans to compare Conway to Mike Hussey.
