#1 Player Battle

Chris Gayle vs Deepak Chahar – The West Indian left-hander is not used to be bogged down by the spinners in the power play and likes to go after them. Will Chahar have a go at him early on in the innings?

Shane Watson vs Ravichandran Ashwin – The Punjab skipper will look to take it upon himself to stop the carnage that Watson has been used to doing. With his choice of decisions, can he get the dangerous right-hander out early?
