The Punjab Kings and the Chennai SUper Kings are going to be playing against each other in Dharamsala as the fight for the playoff spots gets closer. At the time of this writing, CSK is in 5th position on the points table and PBKS is in 7th. With just four matches to go for both teams, a win here is going to be crucial towards qualification.
HEAD TO HEAD
PBKS and CSK have played against each other in 29 matches. Out of these, 16 have been won by CSK and 13 by PBKS. Interestingly, the previous four matches between these two teams have been won by PBKS, including one just a few days back.
PBKS VS CSK TEAM PREVIEWS
PUNJAB KINGS
PBKS is going to be very confident going into this match against CSK. Not only did they won comprehensively against them just a few days back but they are rediscovering some late form in the tournament. Two wins on the trot including a record breaking 262 chase will fuel hopes that they can continue this run.
Prabhsimran Singh and Jonny Bairstow are both firing at just the right time. Both of them have an excellent strike-rate at the top but their consistency is not where it needs to be. As a result, you can expct a fast start but an early loss of a wicket or two with PBKS is never a surprise.
This is where batting depth comes into the picture.
PBKS has discovered two Indian batters that are excellent in the middle order. Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma are showing that they can be relied upon the clear the boundaries at all stages of the match. With Jitesh Sharma, Sam Curran, and Rilee Rossouw also in the lineup, PBKS can be secure they have the batting resources to attack from the wword go.
This is something that could trip up a CSK bowling lineup that will be missing a number of its first choice players.
On the bowling front, PBKS has its own problems. Sam Curran has been quite ineffective this season and Kagiso Rabada has also been very expensive. Harshal Patel’s variations are well known to everyone at this point and he is also suffering on the flat tracks.
Rahul Chahar and Harpreet Brar are the two bowlers that are likely to be able to exert some control over proceedings.
CHENNAI SUPER KINGS
CSK is sliding down the points table and may find itself in a scrap for the final qualifying position. Just one win in its previous four matches and just one win away from home all season point to some serious problems in its team composition.
A number of its first choice bowlers including Mustafizur Rahmana and Deepak Chahar are uinavailable for selection. Tushar Deshpande is expected to be back but the brunt of the bowling responsibility will have to be borne by Matheesh Pathirana.
He had a good game against PBKS in the previous match and might be a good pick for the Top Bowler CSK betting market. The rest of the bowling attack is weak and can be taken for runs.
CSK’s batting has been good in parts but the dependency on Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shivam Dube is apparent. We don’t rate Ravindra Jadeja as a world-class batter at all, Ajinkya Rahane is not good enough as an opener, and MS Dhoni is also limited to playing small cameos.
Daryl Mitchell is the only other genuine match winner in this lineup.
We see CSK struggling to match PBKS in batting strength unless one of Gaikwad or Dube has a brilliant game.
Punjab Kings vs Chennai Super Kings 53rd Match Pitch Report and Conditions
The average score is around 180 but as we have seen in this IPL, anything less than 200 will be difficult to defend.
PBKS vs CSK Today Match Weather Report
The weather forecast is clear and should be comfortable in terms of the temperatures. There is a decent amount of pace and carry in the wicket. The boudaries are small and so plenty of sixes can be hit once the batters get set. in general, spinners struggle to get too much of help here.
Punjab Kings vs Chennai Super Kings Toss Prediction
The team that wins the toss is likely to want to field first. There is always a little bit for the bowlers with the new ball in Dharamsala and teams will be keen to take advantage of that.
