CSK vs KKR 22nd Match Preview
The 22nd match of the IPL 2024 promises to be a crackerjack as the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) lock horns with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the iconic MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on April 8th, 2024.
CSK Seeking Redemption After Recent Setbacks
CSK will be desperate to turn the tide after suffering back-to-back defeats against the Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad. Their batting, barring Shivam Dube, has been a cause for concern, with senior players like Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ajinkya Rahane, and Daryl Mitchell failing to fire consistently. The bowling attack, hit by the absence of key players like Matheesha Pathirana and Mustafizur Rahman, also needs to tighten its grip. However, with Pathirana expected to return for this match, CSK’s bowling might gain some much-needed firepower.
KKR Aiming to Maintain Winning Streak
On the other hand, KKR are riding high on confidence after registering convincing victories in their first three matches. Their batting has been well-oiled, with Shreyas Iyer leading the charge, while the bowling attack, boasting the likes of Sunil Narine and Mitchell Starc, has been equally impressive. KKR will be keen to maintain their winning run and solidify their position at the top of the points table.
Last Match Summary
- CSK’s last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad saw a forgettable batting performance. Apart from Shivam Dube’s 54, none of the batsmen could convert starts into big scores, leading to a paltry 132 run total. The bowlers tried their best, but Hyderabad chased down the target comfortably with 6 wickets remaining.
- KKR, in their previous encounter, faced a strong challenge from the Royal Challengers Bangalore. However, their bowlers, led by the experienced Piyush Chawla, restricted Bangalore to a manageable 158. Captain Shreyas Iyer then anchored the chase with a well-composed 78, guiding KKR to a comfortable 5-wicket victory.
Head-to-Head
The historical rivalry between CSK and KKR adds another layer of intrigue to this match. While CSK holds the upper hand in the overall head-to-head record (19 wins vs KKR’s 11), KKR emerged victorious in their last two encounters in IPL 2020.
