THE LOWDOWN

CHENNAI SUPER KINGS

  • Although Chennai Super Kings may have lost each of their last two games, both of them were away from home, whilst their two wins recorded prior to these recent slip-ups each came in Chepauk.
  • Despite all of CSK’s top six reaching double-figures against Sunrisers Hyderabad, none could go on and convert their start into a 50+ score, which led to an under-par total of 165/5, which was chased down by SRH in 18.1 overs.

KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS

  • One of two teams still with a 100% record to their name, Kolkata Knight Riders have enjoyed a dream start to this year’s competition with their net-run-rate currently the best of any side by a large margin.
  • Another resounding message was sent by KKR in their last match, absolutely destroying Delhi Capitals with a win margin of 106 runs after piling up 272/7 and then bowling their opponents out for 166.

THE PREDICTION

This is as difficult assignment as it gets for Kolkata Knight Riders and if any game is likely to pump the brakes on their winning streak, it would be this one. Chennai Super Kings remain a formidable outfit at home and their spin-bowling unit could be what ties down KKR here. It would be a classic T20 scenario if a team who won their last game by over 100 runs was to lose their following fixture and on their own ground, CSK should have the edge over the Knight Riders.

TIP: CHENNAI SUPER KINGS TO WIN
