TEAM NEWS
Chennai Super Kings: Injuries to players and poor form have been the biggest issues for CSK this season. While Deepak Chahar and Adam Milne are already out of the tournament due to injuries, opener Ruturaj Gaikwad and all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja are stuggling for form. Ambati Rayudu, MS Dhoni, Shivam Dube and Moeen Ali have performed in patches, while only Devon Conway (144 runs from three matches at an average of 72) has been consistent. In the bowling department, Maheesh Theeksana, Mukesh Chaudhary and Dwayne Bravo have picked wickets but have leaked runs.
Delhi Capitals: David Warner continues his red-hot form, while Prithvi Shaw, who missed the previous game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, has failed to live up to the expectations. Shaw’s replacement Mandeep Singh too failed to deliver in the match vs SRH. On the other hand, Rovman Powell has got back into form, while Rishabh Pant and Mitchell Marsh need to convert their good starts into big ones. On the bowling front, spinner Kuldeep Yadav (18 wickets) and pacers Khaleel Ahmed (14), Shardul Thakur (10) and Mutafizur Rahman (8) all have picked wickets but have leaked runs.
HEAD-TO-HEAD
Both Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals have played 26 matches against each other. Chennai have won 16 of them while 10 have been won by Delhi. This will be the first game between the sides in IPL 2022.
VENUE AND PITCH
CSK and DC play their IPL 2022 match at DY Patil Stadium, Mumbai. The venue has offered a balanced surface. Teams batting second have won the last two games and hence the captain who wins the toss would like to stick with the trend of bowling first.
