TEAMS PREVIEW

Chennai Super Kings Preview

Things have got tough for Ruturaj Gaikwad's side. They started the season with a win but have suffered back-to-back losses heading into this contest. The team went down by 6 runs in the last game against the Rajasthan Royals, making a mess of the chase in the final overs. Gaikwad must lift spirits in the camp and win this game to regain their momentum and keep hopes alive.

Rachin Ravindra and Rahul Tripathi must deliver a good start in the game, as the lack of runs at the top has been one of their major worries this season. Ruturaj Gaikwad is the mainstay in the middle order, and he must do well with Shivam Dube and Vijay Shankar. Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni, and Jamie Overton are good hitters, and the team expects a strong show in the final overs.

The bowling attack has struggled in the last two games and must execute its plans thoroughly in this game. The team expects early wickets from Khaleel Ahmed and Jamie Overton, as the Delhi Capitals have good hitters. Ravichandran Ashwin and Jadeja will find help from the surface and must do well in the middle overs. Matheesha Pathirana and Noor Ahmed look forward to excelling in the supporting role.

Chennai Super Kings Predicted Playing XI:

Ruturaj Gaikwad (c), Rachin Ravindra, Rahul Tripathi, Vijay Shankar, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (wk), Jamie Overton, Ravichandran Ashwin, Noor Ahmad, Matheesha Pathirana, Khaleel Ahmed, Shivam Dube (Impact Player)

Delhi Capitals Preview

Axar Patel has made a strong start as the team's new skipper. The team has won both games and comes here with a 7-wicket win against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Patel would like his players to continue with the winning streak. However, they have struggled against CSK in the earlier seasons, and the Delhi Capitals' skipper wants his team to overcome that poor record.

Jake Fraser-McGurk and Faf du Plessis will be confident after their good start in the last game. The pair must lay a strong platform at the top. The middle order has looked good, and the team expects Abishek Porel, KL Rahul, and Ashutosh Sharma to build partnerships. With their hitting abilities, Tristan Stubbs and Axar Patel complete a strong batting lineup for the team.

Mitchell Starc bowled a match-winning spell in the last game, and he will look to strike early along with Mukesh Kumar and put the Super Kings under pressure. Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav form a strong spin attack for the team, and their performance will be crucial. Mohit Sharma and Vipraj Nigam add variety to this bowling attack.

Delhi Capitals Predicted Playing XI:

Axar Patel (c), Jake Fraser-McGurk, Faf du Plessis, Abishek Porel, KL Rahul (wk), Tristan Stubbs, Vipraj Nigam, Mitchell Starc, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohit Sharma, Mukesh Kumar, Ashutosh Sharma (Impact Player)

Weather Conditions

The skies over Chennai will be clear, and we expect a good game. The wicket will play well at the start, but it will be on the slower side, where the ball isn't going to hit the bat hard. A score of 180 runs or above will be a good one with the average first innings score around 150 runs.

CSK vs DC Pitch Report

M. A. Chidambaram Stadium Pitch Report Pitch Condition Balanced Batting Conditions Moderate Scoring Pace Bowling Two Paced Spin Bowling High Turn

MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, is a good venue as it aids both the bowlers and the batsmen, a rarity on Indian surfaces. Batsmen must play to the ball's merit, as fast bowlers get some early assistance from the surface. The track is slow, and spinners have always enjoyed bowling on this surface.

Toss: To Bat

As we saw in the last game, the wicket at Chennai is known for being a difficult surface to chase a score. The wicket tends to slow down as the game progresses. The side that wins the toss would aim to put up a good score on the board and defend it successfully.
