Raina smashed 6 sixes and 4 fours during his knock.
Faf Du Plessis chipped in with a cameo knock of 33 runs towards the end.
Chasing a target of 182 runs the Royal Challengers Bangalore could never step up the gears and accelerate due to some well-disciplined bowling by the CSK bowlers. The side were restricted to 154 for eight in 20 overs.
