Du Plessis scored 35 off 23 balls.
Mustafizur then dismissed Rajat Patidar for a duck off the last ball of the fifth over to make it 41 for 2. One run later, in the last over of the Powerplay, Deepak Chahar removed Glenn Maxwell for zero to make things worse for the visitors at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
