Delhi Capitals find themselves at the bottom of the points table. They have done well to win 4 out of last 5 matches in the competition. But they need to maintain the winning run for an outside chance of qualifying for the playoffs.
There will be no Anrich Nortje for DC in this match as the South African pacer has already returned home due to personal reasons. Ishant Sharma has taken up the responsibility of being the leader of the pack quite well, bowling some crucial match-winning overs in the past two matches. All eyes will be on Ishant in this crucial tie. Not to forget, DCpin hopes on Warner, Mitchell Marsh to come good as well. In the spin-friendly conditions of Chennai, the likes of Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav can too turn out to be heroes for DC.
S Sreesanth, who has played a lot of cricket under MS Dhoni, said CSK captain knows how to get the best out of the players. "MS Dhoni's biggest quality is that he brings the best out of the players. And if they don't know, he'll make sure they understand their strengths. When they get the backing of the captain and the team atmosphere is so good, players bring out the best in them," Sreesanth told Star Sports.
