Odds from
Probable 6s
Chennai Super Kings boasts of a batting unit of Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Ajinkya Rahane, Moeen Ali, Shivam Dube and MS Dhoni. They have smashed 54 sixes in five games this season compared to only 26 by SRH in the same number of games.
Our prediction: Chennai Super Kings to hit most sixes in the match at 4/5 (1.80).
Probable Wickets
Umran Malik has the pace to trouble most of the CSK batters. You can back him to be the top bowler for SRH at 9/4 (3.25). Ravindra Jadeja has picked six wickets from five games at a good economy and loves bowling at the Chepauk. Bet on him to be CSK’s top wicket-taker at 15/4 (4.75).
Our prediction: Umran Malik to be Sunrisers Hyderabad’s highest wicket-taker at 9/4 (3.25).
Man of the Match
Ravindra Jadeja had taken 3 for 20 versus Mumbai Indians earlier this season. He will be bowling to a lineup that has plenty of right handers and add his batting value, he becomes a top candidate for the player of the match. Devon Conway, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Aiden Markram and Rahul Tripathi are some of the other top betting options.
Our prediction: Ravindra Jadeja to be the Man of the Match at 12/1 (13.00).
CSK vs SRH Preview
Sunrisers Hyderabad need to get a move on quickly but they have a huge challenge in CSK. Here’s a look at two teams ahead of their meeting on Friday.
Chennai Super Kings
Chennai Super Kings have six points from five games and a net run-rate of 0.265. They defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore in the previous outing by eight runs after posting 226 runs on the board.
Ben Stokes has not played the previous three games but is expected to return for this. He has been bowling in the nets and batting. Matheesha Pathirana could be the unfortunate one to miss out here.
Predicted XI: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Ajinkya Rahane, Ben Stokes, Shivam Dube, Moeen Ali, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (c/wk), Maheesh Theekshana, Tushar Deshpande, Akash Singh
Sunrisers Hyderabad
SRH are reeling at ninth position on the table, having won two out of three games. They fell 14 runs short in the previous game against Mumbai Indians while chasing 193.
Sunrisers left out Umran Malik in the previous fixture to bring in Washington Sundar. We expect Malik to return for this game considering their opponent and T Natarajan’s form.
Predicted XI: Harry Brook, Mayank Agarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram (c), Abhishek Sharma, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Marco Jansen, Washington Sundar, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Markande, Umran Malik
