  • After a gap of two years, this IPL CSK would certainly want to win the finale for the 7th
  • CSK have to showcase higher score with their strong batting line-up, and also at the same time, their bowers need to take quick wickets of SRH.
  • Captain MS Dhoni has been on a roll throughout the season and has hardly lost the momentum with the old guards and new sensations firing in unison. He has to put up a super score for his team, along with other top batsmen.
  • SRH will need captain Kane Williamson to get back into the stunning form he displayed in the league stage.
  • If Chennai Super Kings have power-hitters like Ambati Rayadu, Shane Watson, Faf du Plessis and MS Dhoni among other players, then Sunrisers Hyderabad is having one of the best bowling attacks like all-rounder Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Siddarth Kaul, and others.

  • It would be interesting to see who is going to win the toss and what they will opt for first. The team who wins the toss first generally opts to field so that they can topple their opponent’s score.
  • Whenever CSK and SRH play together, there are lots of twists and turns happening throughout the match and it is absolutely unpredictable till last.
