The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are set to welcome the Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Chepauk Stadium today as they lock horns with each other in today’s afternoon match. With two wins out of two games, DC are in the second pot with four points while CSK, after winning their season opener, have suffered two back-to-back losses.
Pitch Report
As the game is scheduled to take place in the afternoon, the pitch in the Chepauk Stadium is expected to be a slowish one. Spinners might get some grip while batters might struggle to score freely.
Head to Head
In 30 IPL matches so far, CSK have won on 19 occasions while DC have won 11 times.
Three Fantasy Picks
Mitchell Starc
Starc, who was the 2024 IPL champion with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), is now part of the DC this season. In the last game against the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), he registered 5/35..
Rachin Ravindra
Rachin Ravindra has 106 runs scored in total in the three games played so far. Starting with a 65 (45) against Mumbai Indians (MI), he scored 41 (31) against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) before registering a duck vs Rajasthan Royals (RR).
Noor Ahmad
With nine wickets in three games so far, Noor Ahmad is at the top of the highest-wicket taker list this season. He is leading the charge for that Purple Cap. Again, in today’s match, in Chennai,. where spinners are expected to get grip, Noor will be crucial for CSK’s success.
