CSK vs KKR Dream11 Match Prediction | Who Will Win Today Match
Chennai, April 09, Tuesday at 08:00 PM IST
So, two of the most successful teams of this year are all set to square off against each other at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. The reigning champions Chennai Super Kings and table-toppers Kolkata Knight Riders have won four matches each and have faced only one defeat in Vivo IPL 2019.
MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings completed its hat-trick of home wins on Saturday after beating Kings XI Punjab by 22 runs. They will be playing their fourth home fixture tonight and would be completely wary of Dinesh Karthik-led Kolkata Knight Riders. Kolkata Knight Riders grabbed the top spot in the points table after registering a convincing 8 wickets win over Rajasthan Royals on Sunday night. While H Gurney, Chris Lynn and Sunil Narine were the key performers against Royals, Jamaican power-hitter Andre Russell has been the main reason behind KKR’s standout performance this season. A Russell has been adjudged Man of the Match in three games out of five encounters due to his slaught with the bat and will be the biggest threat to the hosts.
When last time both the teams met at Chepauk, Sam Billings 23-ball 56 overshadowed Andre Russells 36-ball 88. So, will he continue his good form or will MS Dhoni’s strategies neutralise his Muscle Power? We will watch it tonight. Till then, let’s have a look at some interesting facts and stats on both sides.
