THE LOWDOWN
KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS
- Three consecutive defeats for Kolkata Knight Riders has pushed them rapidly down the table, not least after losing to bottom-placed Delhi Capitals, who had previously been beaten in five successive games before playing KKR.
- In a contest delayed by rain, KKR were bowled out for just 127 and despite a brave effort by the bowlers to defend such a small total, it didn’t prove enough, the Capitals reaching their victory target with four wickets and four balls to spare.
CHENNAI SUPER KINGS
- For the second time in the 2023 IPL, Chennai Super Kings managed back-to-back victories this past Friday, overcoming Sunrisers Hyderabad fairly comprehensively by seven wickets in Chepauk.
- Overseas all-rounder Ben Stokes won’t feature once again, with an injury setback set to rule him out for a further week according to Chennai head coach Stephen Fleming, news which will concern England fans.
THE PREDICTION
There were fears regarding Kolkata Knight Riders heading into this IPL season and those fears do appear founded. They’ve had bad luck with injuries and are no doubt really starting to feel the absence of Shreyas Iyer, whose leadership skills and runs would prove extremely handy right now. Chennai Super Kings though, are really starting to hit their straps and are more than capable of putting together a run of wins that would put them in an excellent position to finish in the top four. Back MS Dhoni and his men to gain a third consecutive win here at Eden Gardens.
