Opening batsman Ruturaj Gaikwad hit his maiden Indian Premier League fifty as the struggling Chennai Super Kings defeated Virat Kohli's Royal Challengers Bangalore by eight wickets in Dubai on Sunday.

Gaikwad hit an unbeaten 65 to lead Chennai's chase of 146 in 18.4 overs in Dubai and give Mahendra Singh Dhoni's team only their fourth win this season.

Gaikwad, 23, hit the winning runs for his side, who can still mathematically qualify for the play-offs.

Earlier, Sam Curran's figures of 3-19 in three overs restricted Bangalore to 145-6 despite an 82-run third-wicket stand between Kohli, who made 50, and AB de Villiers.
