IPL 2024: Chennai Super Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders – Dafanews Match Preview

The reigning champions Chennai Super Kings will lock horns against Kolkata Knight Riders in the 22nd match of IPL 2024 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai on Monday. CSK has won two out of their four matches whereas KKR has won all of their three games so far.

We take a look at the head-to-head battle, players to watch out for, and squads of both teams in our match preview.

Kolkata Knight Riders: W W W

KKR could not have asked for a better start to the season as they have come up with a collective effort. Sunil Narine has batted at his absolute best in the ongoing season as he has scored 134 runs in three matches. Moreover, their bowling unit has done a decent job.

Chennai Super Kings: L L W W

Chennai will want to come up with a better batting performance as their batters could not convert their starts in the last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Ruturaj Gaikwad’s form is also a cause of concern for the five-time champions.

Head to Head: Matches: 31, Won by CSK: 19, Won by KKR: 11, Abandoned: 1.

CSK certainly holds a big advantage in head-to-head battle.

MS Dhoni, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ajinkya Rahane, Shivam Dube, Deepak Chahar, Ravindra Jadeja, and Maheesh Theekshana will be the crucial players for CSK.
