In the match 17 of the Indian Premier League, the home team CSK have made interesting changes to their line-up, and one of them is that they have brought in Devon Conway into the XI. In the initial three matches, Conway was not selected in the XI and Rachin Ravindra opened with Rahul Tripathi with Ruturaj Gaikwad coming in at number 3.

However, now with Rahul Tripathi out, it would be interesting to see who opens with Rachin Ravindra for CSK against Delhi Capitals. The natural choice is Devon Conway, who has done well as an opener for CSK in the past, and as Ruturaj Gaikwad has hit two fifties at number 3 this season, he is likely to stay at that position.

There is also option of Ruturaj Gaikwad opening the innings to keep the right-hand left-hand combination going, but it is highly unlikely that CSK will go that way. They need to win this game though, and would need both Conway and Gaikwad to fire and set a platform to hand Delhi Capitals their first loss of the season.

Chennai Super Kings started off the season with a win against Mumbai Indians, but lost their games against RCB and RR. CSK's middle order also has not done a lot this season, and it would be upto Shivam Dube to show his value in the middle order on a slow deck at the Chepauk.
