CSK vs PBKS: Top five player battles to watch out for

1. Ruturaj Gaikwad vs Arshdeep Singh

The CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad has done the bulk of the scoring in the last two matches and will be a massive wicket for PBKS. The form he is in, if he gets set, he will play another big innings. However, he hasn’t had good numbers against Arshdeep Singh in the IPL. Arshdeep has bowled 34 balls to him, given away 37 runs at a strike rate of 108.8, and dismissed him twice.

2. Shivam Dube vs Kagiso Rabada

Shivam Dube has been the game-changer for CSK in the middle overs. The tall left-hander has struck the ball brilliantly and scored runs at a rapid pace, which is why CSK have posted big totals. He will be keen to do it again in the CSK vs PBKS clash. But he will be up against Kagiso Rabada, who has bowled well against him. Rabada has dismissed Dube twice in 27 balls and conceded only 33 runs.

3. Jonny Bairstow vs Ravindra Jadeja

Jonny Bairstow slammed a brilliant century in the last game for PBKS against KKR, which helped PBKS chase down the record total and win the game. He will be confident heading into the coming CSK vs PBKS clash. Bairstow is a free-flowing batter and can take the game away. However, Ravindra Jadeja has enjoyed bowling against him. The CSK superstar has dismissed Bairstow 8 times in international cricket. In the IPL, he has bowled 22 balls to him and conceded 20 runs with one wicket.

4. Shashank Singh vs Matheesha Pathirana

It has been an incredible season for Shashank Singh. He has scored the most runs for his team, struck 18 sixes, and scored 263 runs at a strike rate of 182.63. The 32-year-old has shown maturity and collected as many runs as possible at the back end of the innings. However, CSK have someone who hasn’t let the batters score in the final overs. He is the Sri Lankan star, Matheesha Pathirana. So it will be a great battle between the two in-form players.

5. Daryl Mitchell vs Sam Curran

Daryl Mitchell played a good innings in CSK’s last match, registered his first fifty, and looked good. He will be keen to carry on that form and contribute to the coming game as well. He plays well against spin and pace, which makes him a big wicket. In the upcoming game, he will face PBKS stand-in skipper Sam Curran, who has dismissed him twice in international cricket. This will be another battle to watch out for in the game.

CSK is desperate to move to the top 4
