line-up has been firing well for them as Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Ajinkya Rahane and Shivam Dube have been performing consistently well for the side.
On the other side, Punjab Kings have been inconsistent this season. The batting and bowling have not complemented each other well on multiple occasions as they are currently placed at the sixth spot on the points table. Shikhar Dhawan recovered from the injury and returned to the XI in the last match against Lucknow Super Giants but it turned out to be a forgettable match for him and the team. Dhawan was dismissed for just 1 while the bowlers leaked too many runs as LSG posted the second-highest score in IPL – 257/5.
CSK, however, will be happy to return to home comforts, where spin is king and their shrewd captain M S Dhoni will look to strangle the PBKS batters.
A high-flying CSK was ambushed in Jaipur as the batters came up short, chasing 203 for victory against the Royals.
