The 21st match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 will be played between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Wednesday. Although MS Dhoni and his men have just two wins in five games, in their last game, CSK registered a ten-wicket win against a hapless KXIP side. With the likes of Shardul Thakur and Shane Watson coming out all guns blazing, CSK will go into this game with a lot of confidence and will look to win their third match in IPL 2020.

However, they come across KKR, who has had their shares of ups ad downs in this season. With two wins in four games, KKR has had a decent start to its campaign although they also have unanswered questions in their squad. The form of Sunil Narine is a major talking point ahead of the upcoming match with the West Indian unable to come up with a telling contribution with bat or ball.

Elsewhere, KKR has a largely settled unit with the duo of Nitish Rana and Shubman Gill leading the way with the bat. The head-to-head record fo KKR and CSK is 14-8 in the latter’s favor with the three-time IPL champions doing the double over KKR in IPL 2019. Thus, one can expect a cracking encounter at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Wednesday.

Batsmen

Shane Watson, Faf du Plessis, Ambati Rayudu, Shubman Gill, and Nitish Ranada have always been the prime contenders for the fantasy cricket. Even, Ruturaj Gaikwad can also be added in fantasy cricket and that will depend on the balance of the squad. Apart from them, there are some useful batsmen in the line-ups as well, like Rahul Tripathi, and Murali Vijay (if he plays).
