Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are set to lock horns at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad in match No. 18 of the ongoing  Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 on Friday, April 5.

SRH, led by Pat Cummins, started this edition’s journey with a defeat, as they lost the game to two-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) by four runs. However, they made a brilliant comeback in their second game as they defeated Mumbai Indians by 31 runs at home. The Hyderbad-based franchise couldn’t carry forward the winning momentum as they suffered a seven-wicket defeat against Gujarat Titans in their last game. The upcoming clash will be their second home game and they will look to change things around.

Defending champions CSK, on the other hand, started the season with a bang and registered two back-to-back victories against Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans respectively. However, the result of the last game against Delhi Capitals wasn’t as pleasing as they would’ve liked as the Ruturaj Gaikwad-led side suffered a 20-run defeat. Five-time champions, CSK surely can regroup and put up a strong performance to win this game.

SRH vs CSK Match Details:

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium Pitch Report:

The Hyderabad stadium is likely to offer a flat pitch that may provide some assistance to spin bowlers. Given the presence of dew at this venue, the preferred choice would be to chase the target after winning the toss. While the pitch in Hyderabad has been somewhat unpredictable, it is expected to follow the general trend observed across other pitches during this season.

SRH vs CSK Probable Best Players of the Match:

Probable Best Batter:

Heinrich Klaasen is consistently coming up with good performances. He has been hitting the best bowlers around the world with ease. He got off to a flying start in IPL 2024, having smashed two half-centuries in the first couple of games. In the first encounter against the Knight Riders, he scored 63 off just 29 balls, hitting eight sixes. The wicketkeeper-batter followed it up with an unbeaten 34-ball 80 against Mumbai in a knock that comprised four fours and seven sixes. In the last game against Gujarat Titans, he managed to score only 24 runs. Chennai will want to see the back of him very quickly before he gets into his zone.

Probable Best Bowler:

Deepak Chahar could be the best bowler in the upcoming match against SRH. Chahar who has so far taken only three wickets in three games will be dangerous in the forthcoming game. The pacer can swing the ball both ways and can generate pace. His variations and slower balls will be something that the SRH batting line-up need to worry about.
