In the upcoming IPL match, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will face Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in a South Indian derby on April 27 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, also known as Chepauk Stadium, in Chennai. CSK is currently ranked 5th on the points table with 4 wins out of 8 matches. They have emerged victorious in 2 out of their last 5 matches.
CSK and SRH have competed in a total of 20 IPL matches, with CSK winning 14 and SRH winning 6. Chennai’s highest total against SRH stands at 223, while Sunrisers’ highest total against CSK is 192.
The most recent encounter between these two teams took place on April 5 this year, where CSK scored 165/5. Hyderabad successfully chased down the target in 18.1 overs, with Abhishek Sharma’s 37 off 12 balls earning him the Player of the Match award.
The fantasy team for the CSK vs SRH match includes Ruturaj Gaikwad (C), MS Dhoni (WK), Shivam Dube, Maheesh Theekshana, Mukesh Choudhary, Ravindra Jadeja, Aiden Markram (VC), Abdul Samad, Umran Malik, Washington Sundar, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
The pitch report for the MA Chidambaram Stadium suggests that bowlers have an advantage, making it challenging for batsmen to score runs. The team batting second may benefit from the dew factor later in the game.
In previous IPL 2024 matches at Chepauk, CSK defeated Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) by 6 wickets, followed by a 63-run victory against Gujarat Titans (GT). They secured a 7-wicket win against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the third match but suffered a 6-wicket loss to Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the subsequent game.
