CSK vs LSG Team Previews

Chennai Super Kings

CSK will be very disappointed with the way they played at the Ekana Stadium on Friday. The bowlers put up a particularly weak show as they managed to get only 2 wickets despite a decent bowling surface on offer. As the team returns to its fortress, CSK will be hopeful of holding on to its place in the top 4.

It was a rare failure on the part of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shivam Dube as the duo got dismissed quite cheaply. Ajinkya Rahane got a good start at the top of the batting order but failed to convert it into a big inning. Rachin Ravindra and Sameer Rizvi have got a long rope but they will need to start delivering soon if they want to retain their place in the playing eleven.

The two all-rounders, Moeen Ali and Ravindra Jadeja do add depth to the batting, while MS Dhoni has played a couple of excellent cameos and might yet again come in handy. Mustafizur Rahman remains the team’s leading wicket-taker with 11 wickets and will be joined by Tushar Deshpande with the new ball.

Matheesha Pathirana’s ability to pick up wickets makes him an invaluable asset during the death overs. 

CSK at home is a whole different team than the one that travels away from home!

Lucknow Super Giants

After facing back-to-back losses, LSG finally managed to turn things around by defeating CSK on Friday. This not only gives the team two important points but also gives them plenty of confidence.

The bowlers did an excellent job of keeping the explosive CSK batting line-up under check. Yash Thakur and Mohsin Khan were spot-on with the line and length, while Krunal Pandya and Marcus Stoinis kept up the pressure during the middle overs.

The bowlers have been expensive at times and will need to be consistent with their line and length as they head to the batting-friendly wicket of Chepauk. Quinton de Kock and KL Rahul put up a century stand in the last match and have been very consistent throughout the season.

Nicholas Pooran is an invaluable asset in the middle order thanks to his clean strokeplay. The batting lower down the order hasn’t been the best though and the all-rounders will need to step up with the bat. 

We have seen LSG thrive in relatively low-scoring matches but struggle when the batting surface requires them to score more freely. That is something that could hold them back in this match, even though some of their players have been showing signs of good form.

CSK vs LSG Toss Prediction

The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first. 

Pitch and Conditions

The pitch at Chennai is generally very hard and offers a good amount of bounce. There is very little grass on the surface and the seamers will need to pitch the ball in the right areas if they want some movement. There are some cracks on the surface which can help the spinners extract some turn.

Nevertheless, the batsmen will have a good time and a score of around 180 will be a par score. The weather is likely to be warm and humid and the dew might come in during the second half.

CSK vs LSG Betting Tips

We expect a much closer contest this time around as both teams fight to keep themselves in the top 4. While Lucknow was clinical in the last match, we feel that it is an advantage for Chennai as they return to their home turf.

Bet on the Chennai Super Kings to win.
