Chennai Super Kings will be up against the Sunrisers Hyderabad in what will be a top of the table clash in the Indian Premier League that is set to be played at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai in April, 25.
Chennai Super Kings are in good form at the moment after winning successive matches against Kolkata and Rajasthan Royals.
The team has found momentum in the leadership of skipper MS Dhoni. The key players for the Super Kings have been Michael Hussey and MS Dhoni. In their last match, Suresh Raina was back in form as he helped the Super Kings chase down a big total.
This will be a huge boost for the home side who have missed Raina’s hitting so far this season. However, with him back in form, the team will feel a bit relaxed.
The likes of Dwayne Bravo, Albie Morkel and Ravichandran Ashwin are all excellent bowlers and they will look to contain the opposition with some good bowling.
Sunrisers Hyderabad are level on points with the Chennai Super Kings and have a chance to overtake their rivals to second spot in the standings if they can come out on top in this encounter.
Their strength lies in their bowling but a certain Shikhar Dhawan is slated to make his comeback in this match.
Even though it is true that he has been out with injury for a while, the fact is if he gets going, then the opposition bowlers will have to run for their dear lives.
There are some good batsmen in their lineup in the form of Cameron White, Kumar Sangakkara Parthiv Patel and company while the bowling is probably the best of the league with the presence of Dale Steyn, Ishant Sharma, and Amit Mishra.
This should be a cracker of a match and one would expect a close encounter from two teams who are at the top of their games.
