Match preview: GT vs CSK

It’s interesting to note that during the competition’s existence, Chennai, a four-time champion, has never defeated GT. But because MS Dhoni is regarded as a master of this format, it will be fascinating to watch Dhoni’s strategy in the upcoming match. In the meantime, he should also be mindful of Shubman Gill, who, in the existing competition, managed to smash two consecutive centuries. Rashid Khan and Mohammed Shami are also in outstanding form with the ball. Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, and Shivam Dube will have to shoulder a lot of burden with the bat; therefore, CSK may find it challenging.

Pichh report at Chennai

With each game that goes by, the MA Chidambaram Stadium’s surface becomes slower. The toss is therefore very significant. The best option is to bat first, but GT has a really strong bowling attack that can handle any total, so they can also decide to bowl. On this surface, a good total will be anything above 170.
