CSK heads into this game with the hope of a win as they suffered another defeat by Lucknow. Unfortunately, CSK have failed to live up to expectations, and injuries have been the X factory making this worse for the four times IPL winner.
They are now eighth on the table and will need to turn around things before it get more worse.
PBKS were humbled by Kolkata in their last match and were moved down to the sixth spot. Punjab has an unbalanced squad which has been a major concern for the team. Now they face another sturdy task at the Brabourne Stadium.

Team News
Punjab Kings have a star studded side and the sole loss against KKR holds no reason to panic. They are likely to feature the same playing Xl and the faith they have shown in the youngster Raj Bawa is appreciable.
Chennai Super kings Will be kicking themselves after the defeat against LSG but they will move on given their experience. Deepak Chahar is yet to recover from his injury and it looks like the right time to test the U19 sensation Rajvardhan Hangargekar.
Probable XI
Chennai Super Kings (CSK): Ruturaj Gaikwad, Robin Uthappa, Moeen Ali, Ambati Rayudu, Ravindra Jadeja(c), MS Dhoni(w), Shivam Dube, Dwayne Bravo, Dwaine Pretorius, Rajvardhan Hangargekar, Tushar Deshpande
Punjab Kings (PBKS): Mayank Agarwal(c), Shikhar Dhawan, Liam Livingstone, Bhanuka Rajapaksa(w), Shahrukh Khan, Johnny Bairstow/Odean Smith, Rishi Dhawan, Arshdeep Singh, Sandeep Sharma, Kagiso Rabada, Rahul Chahar
Must-picks
Shikar Dhawan has caught the eye in his first game of IPL 2022, with his sublime performance scoring 59 at the strike rate of 134. So, he should be in this fantasy team.
Robin Uthappa was a surprise for all of us when he displayed his top-notch performance in the previous match, hitting 50 runs off 25 balls at a strike rate of 200. He has been a surprise package for us and deserves to be here.
Mooen Ali has been the prominent player for CSK, who has always delivered on the big occasion. He can be a lethal player in middle-over for PBKS.

This will be a tough contest as both the teams will be looking to secure a victory. However, CSK will be more desperate for the win and would want to avoid their third consecutive defeat. This will be a cut-throat contest, but considering CKS’s rich squad and experience, they will prevail in this match.
