[ad_1]
CSK Vs DC: In the Indian Premier League season 14, Chennai Super and Delhi Capitals have managed to make it to the playoffs first. CSK and Delhi Capitals are currently at the first and second positions in the points table. The collision between these two teams on Monday will make it clear which team will finish first in the league round.
Chennai Super Kings got a crushing defeat at the hands of Rajasthan Royals despite scoring a big score in their last match. At the same time, the team of Delhi Capitals defeated Mumbai Indians in a difficult match. However, now the eyes of both the teams will be on the first position as reaching that position will give extra chance to travel to the final.
This is CSK’s first defeat in the UAE and their third overall defeat in 12 matches. They now have 18 points from 12 matches similar to Delhi but Dhoni’s team remains on top due to better run-rate. Right now, Royal Challengers Bangalore also have a chance to reach the top two and in such a situation, Chennai and Delhi would not like to slow down in this match.
Chennai’s batting has been excellent this season. Ruturaj Gaikwad has scored the highest 508 runs by performing brilliantly so far. He also scored an unbeaten 101 off 60 balls against the Royals. His team may have lost the match but Delhi will need to be careful with Gaikwad.
Apart from them, Faf du Plessis, Moeen Ali, Ambati Rayudu and Ravindra Jadeja also performed well. Dhoni is again seen returning to the old colors. Fast bowlers Josh Hazlewood, Deepak Chahar, Dwayne Bravo and Shardul Thakur and spinners Jadeja and Moeen have done well.
Delhi Capitals’ performance has been great
Under the leadership of Rishabh Pant, Delhi Capitals do not want to leave any stone unturned. Delhi Capitals managed to travel to the finals for the first time in the last season. After losing to Kolkata Knight Riders, Delhi made a good comeback by registering a four-wicket win over defending champions Mumbai Indians.
In the last two matches, however, the Delhi batsmen were seen struggling. In the last match, Pant and Shreyas Iyer’s innings helped the team register victory but other batsmen also need to contribute. However, it will be easy to play stroke in Dubai and in such a situation good innings can be expected from Shikhar Dhawan, Steve Smith and Prithvi Sauv.
Delhi’s bowling attack is strong with bowlers like Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Norkia and Ravichandran Ashwin who can put the Chennai batsmen to the test.
Playing 11 can be like this
Chennai Super Kings: Mahendra Singh Dhoni (Captain), Suresh Raina, Ambati Rayudu, Deepak Chahar, Dwayne Bravo, Faf du Plessis, Ravindra Jadeja, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shardul Thakur, Sam Curran, Moeen Ali.
Delhi Capitals: Rishabh Pant (Captain), Prithvi Shaw, Shikhar Dhawan, Shimrom Hetmyer, Shreyas Iyer, Steve Smith, Anrique Norkia, Avesh Khan, Kagiso Rabada, Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel.
