IPL 2019: Match 41, Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad – Statistical Preview

The Chennai Super Kings are finding it tough in the second half with back to back defeats over the last week. The batting performances of the top order are hurting the team’s chances repeatedly. The defending champions played their last four matches away from home in which only MS Dhoni and Ambati Rayudu aggregated over 100 runs. They will now take on the in-form Sunrisers Hyderabad who are quite opposite to CSK in terms of the batting power.

All the key stats and numbers that matter ahead of CSK’s home clash against SRH:

17 – Dwayne Bravo picked up 17 wickets in the IPL against the Sunrisers Hyderabad; the most by any bowler against them. Mohit Sharma stands second in the list with 14 wickets. Bravo returned to the playing XI after missing four matches while Mohit hasn’t featured in the previous five.

65.42 – MS Dhoni’s batting average in the Twenty20 format against the Sunrisers Hyderabad (IPL + CLT20). He scored 458 runs from 14 T20 innings against SRH with help of five fifties.
