Chennai Super Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders
Defending champion Chennai Super Kings failed to put up a decent performance in their last back-to-back contests, which translated into two defeats, and they must be aiming to get back to winning ways today against Kolkata Knight Riders, who are enjoying a certain momentum in the early stages of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Chennai made an impressive start to their campaign by subduing Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at home and repeated the feat in their next contest against Gujarat Titans before they suffered a 20-run loss against Delhi Capitals. That defeat led to another loss, and Chennai batters couldn't click at the right time, and the team lost to Sunrisers Hyderabad by six wickets.
CSK is returning to their home ground after a gap of two weeks, and that could give them an edge against Kolkata Knight Riders, who are currently in the second slot of the points table and have won all of their three contests this season so far. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that KKR's batting has been better than that of every team in this IPL so far. The Shreyas Iyer-led side fell short of five runs in their last contest against Delhi; otherwise, they would have broken the record for the highest team total - 277. Over the years, the MA Chidambaram Stadium's pitch has favoured the batters, and that could give more impetus to KKR, which is enjoying a red-hot batting form at the moment. KKR's success has been greatly influenced by Sunil Narine's return to form as an explosive opening batter.
When it comes to head-to-head records, CSK enjoys a great record against KKR with 18-10 and interestingly, in Chepauk the home-team have 7-3 record against the visitors. Over the years, Chennai team has shown that they can make a comeback from a dire situation and beat the very best in the business. Thus, KKR can't afford to get even a bit complacent against the home team in Cheapuk as it takes only one innings or one wicket to change the outcome of any contest.
