IPL 2024: CSK vs PBKS, Match 49 | Chennai vs Punjab | Innings 2

Business query: info.iqbalsports@gmail.com

Preview: Today will be a crucial tie for the Punjab Kings as they take on the Chennai Super Kings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. PBKS would like to remain in the running for qualification, while CSK looks to improve its chances of making it to the playoffs. Both teams are returning with convincing victories, and they intend to build on this momentum moving ahead. Even though a victory might only net both sides two points, the implications would be very different. CSK would advance in the standings with a victory, and PBKS would require a win to remain in the competition. Chennai will have the benefit of playing at home, while Punjab will feel more confident after leading the biggest total in T20 cricket history against the Kolkata Knight Riders in their last match.

For the hosts, the skipper has been in outstanding form, particularly when playing at home. His stroke-play has been exceptional, and just when the Super Kings' batting position was questionable early in the season, Ruturaj Gaikwad came up and steadied the innings, helping CSK to enormous totals at home. After a dismal start to the season, Jonny Bairstow delivered maybe the best innings of the competition in that historic chase against KKR in the final game. The English player has a history of inconsistent play throughout his career, so CSK needs to be on the lookout for him on Wednesday.

This season, the Chepauk pitch has been good for bowling in the first innings and has improved as the evening went on and the dew started to come into play. Therefore, the side that wins the toss may try to bowl first in order to take advantage of the rainy weather in the second innings.

There is a 59% likelihood that CSK will defeat Punjab in their tenth game, according to Google's win probability.
We at Iqbal Sports and Cricket Unfold also think Chennai will prevail in this match. They will probably stay in third place in the points table, though.
