India's T20 World Cup hero Samson hit an unbeaten 115 for his fourth IPL ton and first for Chennai to steer the team to 212-2 at their M.A. Samson, who survived a dropped catch on 52, delighted the crowd with 15 fours and four sixes in a brilliant 56-ball innings. England all-rounder Jamie Overton then took four wickets after Delhi made a bright start to their chase as Chennai bowled out their opponents for 189. Overton grabbed the crucial wickets of Delhi top-scorer Tristan Stubbs for 60 and his South Africa international teammate David Miller.
