Chennai Super Kings had a moderate start to the tournament. But they picked up pace, won three matches on the bounce, and found themselves at the top of the table. But in the last game against the Rajasthan Royals, there was a bit drop in the rhythm for MS Dhoni and co., and they lost the match convincingly. The team will be eager to return to the winning ways and consolidate their position in the race to the top four.
The Punjab Kings are struggling with form in the tournament. They have played eight matches in the tournament and have won four of them, losing the other four. In the last match against the Lucknow Super Giants, the bowlers of PBKS were subjected to a brutal attack as the opposition mounted 257 runs in 20 overs. The batters of the PBKS managed to score 201 runs but lost the match by a margin of 56 runs. However, they will try to mend their ways and pick up two valuable away points from the match.
IPL 2023, CSK vs PBKS | Pitch Report - MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai
In the first two matches played at this venue in IPL 2023, the pitch looked quite the opposite of what the traditional Chennai pitch used to be. But in the last game, between CSK and SRH, it was what we expected from a Chennai wicket, slowish and the ball gripping on the surface. So, for this match, batters struggling to play through the line and the spinners dominating the course of the game is what we can expect.
