THE LOWDOWN
CHENNAI SUPER KINGS
- Chennai Super Kings know that victory against KKR would see them guarantee a top four finish, securing a place in the play-offs with one league match still to play following this one.
- MS Dhoni’s side are coming off the back of consecutive home wins against Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals, each by a significant margin, showing dominance on their own patch.
KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS
- Kolkata Knight Riders were put to the sword by Royal Challengers Bangalore’s top order in their last match, meaning that they remain on ten points with just two more league games to play.
- The KKR bowling lacked potency against Rajasthan Royals and a similar showing here will see them ripped apart in Chepauk, so the pressure is on them with defeat likely to end their play-off hopes.
THE PREDICTION
Whilst they have shown promise, Kolkata Knight Riders have lacked that extra spark and proven class needed to get the points required for a top four finish this season. This was emphasised against Rajasthan and is likely to be so again vs a formidable opponent in CSK. The winning yellow machine has been in full force throughout much of the league stage and they know exactly how to best utilise conditions in Chepauk with both bat and ball. Expect Chennai Super Kings to gain the two points needed over KKR to seal that top four finish.
