SRH vs CSK Team Previews
Sunrisers Hyderabad
The Sunrisers Hyderabad have been one of the most prolific scorers this season and have already crossed the 200-run mark twice in 3 matches. As they are back on home turf, the team will look to put up yet another explosive performance.
Mayank Agarwal and Travis Head are likely to start the proceedings with the bat. While Agarwal has been a bit subdued so far, Head put up a sterling batting performance last week and the team will expect another good start from him.
The middle-order batting will be the biggest strength for the Sunrisers. Heinrich Klaasen, Abhishek Sharma, and Aiden Markram are in brilliant six-hitting form and can quickly turn the course of the match. There is also plenty of depth in the batting thanks to all-rounders like Abdul Samad and Washington Sundar.
The bowling is something that the home team needs to work on. While skipper Pat Cummins has picked up 4 wickets, the other bowlers including Jaydev Unadkat, Shahbaz Ahmed, and Mayank Markande have all been very expensive, going at over 11 runs per over.
The form of Bhuvaneshwar Kumar is also a concern as he has been wicketless in all his 3 outings.
Sunrisers Hyderabad Playing 11
Nitish Kumar Reddy, Abhishek Sharma, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, Abdul Samad, Shahbaz Ahmed, Pat Cummins, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Markande, T Natarajan, Jaydev Unadkat.
Chennai Super Kings
The defending champions started their campaign with back-to-back victories against the Royal Challengers and Gujarat Titans. However, the team was outplayed by the Delhi Capitals in their latest outing as they faced a 20-run loss.
The Super Kings have one of the most balanced teams in the league. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Rachin Ravindra have given the team a couple of good starts so far and will look to do the same as they bat on a good surface. Shivam Dube is pretty consistent in the middle order and will be supported by the likes of Daryl Mitchell, Ajinkya Rahane, and Sameer Rizvi.
MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja too looked in fine touch against Delhi as they put up a 51-run partnership, albeit for a losing cause.
Coming to the bowling, Mustafizur Rahman is among the leading wicket-takers for the season with 7 wickets. He is going to be unavailable for this match for CSK and that is a big blow. Deepak Chahar, Matheesha Pathirana, and Tushar Deshpande will lead the pace attack while Ravindra Jadeja will head the spin department.

Pitch and Conditions
The latest match played on this ground saw 523 runs scored in 40 overs, which is a record in men’s T20 cricket. While this match will be played on a different pitch, we can still expect a high-scoring match. It is a black-soil pitch which is slightly on the drier side.
While the seamers will get some help, they will need to be accurate with the line and length. Hitting through the line will be tricky against the spinners. The weather is likely to be warm with temperatures of over 30 degrees.
SRH vs CSK Betting Tips
While both, the Sunrisers and the Super Kings have played some good cricket this season, we feel that the latter has a better chance of winning this match as they have a stronger bowling line-up. That said, the home team will look to make the most out of familiar conditions and look to give a strong fight.
Bet on the Chennai Super Kings to win.
Bonus Cricket Bets
The Chennai Super Kings have lost all its 3 tosses this season. On the other hand, the Sunrisers have won it twice. Seeing their luck, backing SRH is a good punt.
CSK and SRH have batted extremely well so far and have 3 scores of 200+ runs between them this season. The previous match played on this ground saw over 500 runs scored. Looking at these stats, we can expect another high-scoring encounter.
Klaasen has been in excellent form this season and is among the top 3 run-getters of the season. He has scored 167 runs at an average of 83.5 and his knocks include 2 half-centuries. With that kind of form, Klaasen has a good chance of being the top batsman of his team.
The pitch at Hyderabad is likely to be good to bat on. The boundaries aren’t the longest and with the quality of batting on both sides, we are likely to have at least one high-scoring over in this match.
