Chennai Super Kings will lock horns with the Delhi Capitals in the 55th match of the Indian Premier League 2023 at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk, on Wednesday, 10th of May. CSK has been the side in form this season, their top order has been brilliant, and Devon Conway has been in prime form. Ajinkya Rahane, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and Shivam Dube have stepped in when needed as well. Ravindra Jadeja, Moeen Ali, and Maheesh Theekshana have been brilliant with the ball. Deshpande has picked up wickets but has conceded a lot of runs. Chennai Super Kings are coming into this game on the back of a win against the Mumbai Indians at home and will look to continue the winning momentum.
On the other hand, Delhi Capitals didn’t get off to an ideal start to their Indian Premier League 2023 campaign but have bounced back well to gather 8 points on the league table, winning the last 4 out of the 5 games. The last game saw Phil Salt opening with David Warner, followed by Rilee Rossouw and Mitch Marsh in the queue. No doubt, this has certainly strengthened their batting department. Mukesh Kumar and Ishant Sharma have done well in patches. And obviously, the spinners – Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel have done their job in the middle overs superbly. As this encounter takes place in Chennai, we might see one of Lalit Yadav or Praveen Dubey come into the playing XI. Catch the cricket live scores to see how these two teams perform.
