The 22nd match of IPL 2024 will see the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) lock horns with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Monday, April 8.

This is a crucial clash for both teams, with CSK seeking to bounce back from two consecutive defeats and KKR aiming to maintain their unbeaten run.

CSK started the season well with victories in their opening home games. However, their batting, barring Shivam Dube, has been a cause for concern. Skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad, along with middle-order batters Ajinkya Rahane and Daryl Mitchell haven't fired consistently.
