Match Preview
The 18th fixture of the Indian Premier League 2024 will have SunRisers Hyderabad clashing against Chennai Super Kings. The match will take place on April 5, Friday, at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. Chennai Super Kings recently witnessed their first defeat of the season, when they were taken down by the Delhi Capitals by a margin of 20 runs. SunRisers Hyderabad on the other hand were beaten by seven wickets.
While the Hyderabad-based franchise currently sits at the sixth spot on the standings, the MS Dhoni featuring team moved to the third spot after ruling the standings for a while.
Toss Prediction
SunRisers Hyderabad and Chennai Super Kings have faced each other in 19 games in the history of the tournament. If we talk about the last five matches between them, Hyderabad came on top in three toss wars, whereas CSK’s former captain MS Dhoni won two of the tosses. Talking about the upcoming game, Pat Cummins might win the toss over CSK’s new captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, considering the game will be played at their home ground.
Win Possibility
As we talked about it, Chennai and Hyderabad have played 19 games in the tournament so far. Out of those 19 matches, Chennai emerged victorious 14 times, whereas Hyderabad managed to win only five of the games. Speaking of the 17th edition, CSK started off on an excellent note and won back-to-back matches, until Rishabh Pant’s Delhi Capitals took them down. SunRisers Hyderabad are having a curvy season thus far, and they could manage to win only one game.
SunRisers have a blend of experienced players as well as promising young talent, and this year, they will aim to make a statement against a comparatively stronger team, CSK. They have a deadly batting lineup who have shown remarkable performances time and again.
On the other hand, while CSK have changed their captain this year, they have a well-balanced squad, like every year. The youngsters have been groomed under the guidance of MS Dhoni, and they know how to play well and win big games. Considering the overall stats and this year’s performance, it would be safe to say that the Yellow Army would win the game to recover from their past loss.

The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, which will host the upcoming match between SRH and CSK, has hosted a total of 72 games and had the first innings score of 161.
