Match Preview
Chennai Super Kings are all set to lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders in their next fixture of the Indian Premier League. The match is scheduled for April 8, Monday, at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Chennai, the reigning champions, registered their second loss of the season when they clashed against SunRisers Hyderabad in their last match. KKR, on the other hand, defeated Delhi Capitals by a huge margin of 106 runs in their last match.
While the Shreyas Iyer-led side is ruling the charts, CSK moved to the third spot after two back-to-back defeats.
Toss Prediction
Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders have faced each other in 29 matches in the previous editions of the Indian Premier League. In their last five matches, the KKR skipper maintained an edge over the CSK skipper in terms of tosses. Kolkata's captain won four of the five tosses whereas CSK's captain could only win one toss.
The visiting captain, Shreyas Iyer, is likely to win the toss in Chennai in their next game of the IPL and further extend the toss-win tally of CSK’s captain Ruturaj Gaikwad.
Win Possibility
As mentioned, Chennai Super Kings clashed against Kolkata Knight Riders in 29 matches in the Indian Premier League. Out of those 29 games, Chennai came out victorious 18 times, whereas Kolkata won 10 matches and one game between them ended without a result. If we talk about the current season, the Yellow Army won both their home games and lost the away matches. Apart from that, if we look at the records of the team at their home, they have been nothing less than invincible.
But if we look at the current performance of the KKR, their batters have won them three games and they maintain an undefeated streak, ruling the season and points table. They will give tough competition to the hosts. However, CSK are favourites to win the match and put an end to their losing streak.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
The MA Chidambaram Stadium, popularly called Chepauk and affectionately called Anbuden by CSK fans, hosted the grand opening of the tournament. Talking about the stadium's records, the venue's first-inning score is 163. Depending on this, we think the first-inning score of the next match would be around 170-180. The powerplay score of the game is likely to be around 45-50.
