Match Predictions and Team Previews

Chennai Super Kings

In IPL 2020, CSK were hurt by the absence of Suresh Raina in their batting order. They stumbled through the first half of the season, struggling to find the right combination of players. Young Gaikwad was the find of the season for Dhoni’s side and should open with Du Plessis. Rayudu and Uthappa will augment Raina’s presence in the middle order. In the absence of an injured Jadeja, we expect Bravo to bat a little earlier in the order than he could do last season. All eyes will be on Gowtham, one of CSK’s costly acquisitions at the auction. The bowling will revolve around Curran and Thakur who have been in great form. Hazlewood’s late withdrawal is sure to hurt CSK this season; in his absence, Ngidi will get his chance, though he would want to improve upon his performance in the recent ODIs against Pakistan. Chahar is likely to fill the remaining bowling spot.

Likely XI

ong>We expect the former champions to field the following eleven in the match against DC on 10 April: Du Plessis, Gaikwad, Uthappa, Rayudu, Raina, Bravo, Curran, Dhoni, Gowtham, Chahar, Ngidi, Thakur

Delh

Delhi Capitals

ong>DC have appointed Pant as captain and that should be the key factor in this game: we expect Pant to lead from the front. In Iyer’s absence, Pant will get to bat higher up the order and that could prove crucial to the team’s fortunes. Dhawan was in great form against England and Shaw appears to have put his poor Australia tour behind him. With Smith in the squad, they will have a calming influence in the middle order, and we can expect Smith’s role to be clearly defined, especially with Ponting as the team coach. Where DC appear to be very strong is in their bowling, with the likes of Rabada and in-form Nortje, assisted by Ravi Ashwin and Axar Patel. They will also have Ishant Sharma to add to their fast-bowling resources and Stoinis as a sixth bowling option. All in all, DC have a well-balanced team with a mix of bowlers, batsmen and allrounders.

tch prediction for the CSK vs DC match is based on current form as well as performances in IPL 2020.
