Punjab vs Chennai on May 5
Punjab Kings continue their ongoing IPL 2024 campaign by taking on Chennai Super Kings at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium, Dharamsala, in the 53rd game of the tournament on Sunday, May 5. Kings will be coming into the game after a win in their previous game. The side faced CSK in their previous game, where they managed to register a seven-wicket win. On the other hand, Chennai Super Kings have not won against Punjab Kings in their last five clashes, sitting in fifth place in the standings. The five-time champions will aim to register a win and move up in the standings to stay in contention for the playoffs.
Best economical pick – CSK’s Matheesha Pathirana could be the best bowler in the upcoming game against Punjab Kings. With 13 wickets in his last six games, Pathirana has been in exceptional form as well, and his spell could be key in the upcoming clash against PBKS.
Top captains & vice captains – Chennai Super Kings’ Ruturaj Gaikwad could be the best batter in the upcoming game against Punjab Kings. The CSK skipper has been in exceptional form in the tournament, with 509 runs in his last 10 matches. Gaikwad is one of the highest run-getters in the competition, and his knock could be crucial. England star Jonny Bairstow has come back to his best form with the bat in the last few games. His century aided PBKS chase down a world record score vs KKR. This was followed by his crucial innings vs CSK that helped PBKS win against the defending champions.
Smart pick – Punjab Kings have seen their fortunes change in the last few games thanks to the captaincy by Sam Curran. The young England all-rounder has led his side well to climb up in the points table and keep themselves in the hunt for a place in the playoffs.
Cautious Pick – After coming into attention for his big hitting during IPL 2023 season, Jitesh Sharma has lost his touch this year. His poor showing has also led him to be overlooked for the Indian squad that was named for the T20 World Cup 2024.
My XI – Ruturaj Gaikwad (Captain), Jonny Bairstow (Vice-Captain), Matheesha Pathirana, Sam Curran, Kagiso Rabada, Shivam Dube, Mustafizur Rahman, Prabhsimran Singh, MS Dhoni, Shashank Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja
