Preview
Chennai Super Kings will take on Punjab Kings in the 49th match of the IPL 2024 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. With their comprehensive victory over SRH in their last encounter in the IPL, CSK have pushed themselves into third place in the points table with an impressive NRR. On the other side, PBKS have chased down the highest total in the history of the IPL, scoring 262 runs in a chase against KKR, to showcase how they can make a comeback from any situation.
Toss Prediction
Punjab Kings will have a better chance to win the toss because they are winning more tosses than Chennai Super Kings in the IPL 2024.
Win Possibility
Despite the recent win against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Eden Gardens, it is important to note that Punjab Kings hasn’t been a consistent team in the IPL 2024. With that, Chennai Super Kings, who are one of the most balanced lineups in the tournament, are likely to get the better of them in their upcoming match.
Some of the top performers for CSK in the IPL 2024 are their captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni, Matheesha Pathirana, and Tushar Deshpande. Meanwhile, for Punjab Kings, the expected return of their captain Shikhar Dhawan will add to their squad depth, allowing their top performers like Shashank Singh, Ashutosh Sharma, the stand-in captain Sam Curran, and others, to play more freely in the remainder of the tournament.
Predicted Powerplay score and first innings score
The MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai has become a batter’s paradise in the IPL 2024, allowing CSK and some of their oppositions to score big runs. But the top bowlers in the tournament have found ways to curtail the flow of runs at this venue in the ongoing season of the IPL. The average first innings score is 165 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in IPL, while the first innings score in the upcoming match could range between 185-195. The powerplay score could go up to 55-60.
