Match Preview

The Chennai Super Kings made a powerful start in the powerplay, unlike the previous few encounters. But they kept on struggling in the middle over as Devon Conway, despite being the set batter, didn’t get the elevation right with the bat. MS Dhoni later nailed a few big shots, but nothing was enough to save them from the defeat by 18 runs.

For the Kolkata Knight Riders, it was a positive game against the Lucknow Super Giants at home. They scored 238 runs on the board in the first innings before getting the momentum with the bat from the beginning. But their lower middle order didn’t contribute as they fell short of the score by four runs.

Hot Picks For CSK vs KKR Dream11 Team Today and Fantasy Cricket Tips

Captaincy Picks

• Ajinkya Rahane- The KKR captain, who played the last two years with the CSK side, is familiar with the surface and can use his current form for a huge score against the former franchise.
• Rachin Ravindra- The left-handed CSK batter was decent at the beginning of the season. But he missed out on the last few games and could now make a comeback in this game.

Top Picks
