Team Form and Key Players
LSG enters the match with confidence, having secured three consecutive victories. Their batting lineup, featuring Nicholas Pooran, Aiden Markram, and captain Rishabh Pant, has been instrumental in their success. The bowling department, led by Ravi Bishnoi and Shardul Thakur, complements their batting prowess.
CSK, on the other hand, faces challenges with a struggling batting order and over-reliance on top-order performances. The absence of Ruturaj Gaikwad due to injury has further compounded their woes. MS Dhoni’s return as captain aims to rejuvenate the team’s spirit and performance.
