The battle for the top and fourth spot is still on in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021, as former champion Chennai Super Kings (CSK) collides against Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the Dubai International Stadium today.
CSK are placed second in the points table, winning nine matches from 13, collecting 18 points. On the other hand, PBKS are ranked sixth with five wins from 13, accumulating 16 points.
A win for CSK would end PBKS's run for playoffs while a victory for the latter would end the former's bid for a top-spot finish.
Although CSK have lost a couple of games in-a-row, they would refrain from panicking. At the same time, the focus would come back on top players like Francois du Plessis, Suresh Raina, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Dwayne Bravo, Ravindra Jadeja, and Skipper M. S. Dhoni.
The pitch could likely play slow while the side winning the toss could chase, considering the dew factor. (Agencies)
