Pitch Report

The match between PBKS and CSK is set to take place at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on the 1st of May 2024 at 7:30 PM (IST). The venue has been known for its slow surface over the years. However, in the ongoing season, it has been good for batting, barring one game. Spinners might make an impact with their accuracy. The Pacers need to use slower ones and wide yorkers. Batters need to make the most of the field restrictions in the powerplay overs.

Player Picks

C

Ruturaj Gaikwad CSK | BAT

Ruturaj Gaikwad has been in blazing form in the last few matches. the star batter has found his mojo and scoring runs for fun. In the last two matches, his scores are 107 and 98 respectively. He is expected to continue his good run against PBKS.

8.5
C

Ashutosh Sharma PBKS | BOWL

Ashutosh Sharma has been one of the finds of the season so far. The finisher of PBKS has saved his side from many collapses and won some matches for his side. Despite batting lower down the order, he can be trusted to deliver points as a batter.

8
C

Shashank Singh PBKS | ALL

Much like Ashutosh Sharma, Shashank Singh has been one of the finds of the season so far. The finisher of PBKS has saved his side from many collapses and won some matches for his side. In the last match, he helped PBKS to finish the match against KKR.

8.5

Daryl Mitchell CSK | ALL

Daryl Mitchell played his first good knock in the IPL. The right-handed batter scored a fifty and claimed 5 catches as a fielder. His contributions helped CSK to beat SRH to return to winning ways. Against PBKS, he is expected to deliver the goods.

7

Shivam Dubey CSK | ALL

Shivam Dube has been one of the best batters in the season. The Southpaw has been CSK's best batter by a fair margin and would be hoping to be the league's best batter. His exploits in the middle order have helped CSK to be in the top 3 position in the league.

8

Jonny Bairstow PBKS | WK

Jonny Bairstow played a great knock in the last match against KKR. After failing to put on a show in the league for the first half, Bairstow smashed a terrific hundred and helped PBKS chase down a huge target of 262 runs against KKR.

6.5

Tushar Deshpande CSK | BOWL

Tushar Deshpande was one of the best players in the last match. With the ball, he claimed important wickets in the powerplay overs and delivered a massive blow to SRH's chances. His 4/27 helped CSK to beat SRH by 78 runs to return to winning ways.

6

Prabhsimran Singh PBKS | WK

Prabsimran Singh set the tone for PBKS in the run chase against KKR. His brisk fifty helped PBKS to beat KKR. In the last few games, he has been batting well. If necessary, Singh can be handy as the wicketkeeper. Prabsimran is a good fielder too.

8.5

Harpreet Brar PBKS | BOWL

Harpreet Brar is an extremely economical bowler. It was his spell that stopped KKR from posting over 275 runs in the last match. The left-arm orthodox spinner is accurate with his line and lengths and troubles the batters. If they take risks, Brar can claim wickets as well.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

8

MS Dhoni

CSK | WK

MS Dhoni does not get enough chances to bat. He usually comes to bat lower down the order in the last few overs of the match. Given the consistency of Shivam Dube and Ruturaj Gaikwad, Dhoni has often come out to bat with just a few overs left in the game.

7.5

Ajinkya Rahane

CSK | BAT

Ajinkya Rahane has been woefully out of form. There is a good chance of him getting dropped from the side to accommodate better players. After having a good season as a batter in 2023, Rahane has failed to make an impact in 2024.

7

Jitesh Sharma

PBKS | WK

Jitesh Sharma has had a poor time in the middle. The wicketkeeper batter was the best performers for PBKS in the last couple of seasons. In the ongoing season, he has not been at his best. Hence, it is risky to have him on the fantasy team.
