The 29th game of the IPL 2023 will see the four-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) play against the Aiden Markram-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Friday, April 21. Coming off a thrilling win away from home against Royal Challengers Bangalore, the MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings would be high on confidence and they would look to win the upcoming game as well. On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad lost their last game to the Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians, and the 2016 IPL title winner would look to get back to winning ways as well.
After their last win, MS Dhoni said: “When you come to Bangalore, you know it’s a good wicket. Early part of IPL you get a lot of dew. You want to start well and then alter whatever is there in your mind. It was slightly tacky to start off. It’s important to go through that and then look to accelerate. We kept it simple and tried to get as much as possible in the second half of the game. Whenever you score 220, the batsmen need to keep on hitting. If Faf and Maxi had continued, they would have won it by the 18th over. I keep assessing from behind the wicket, I am always involved in what needs to be done rather than thinking about the result.”
