After two back-to-back defeats, the Chennai Super Kings are set to host the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Chepauk on Tuesday. The reigning champions will be desperate to get back to winning ways, while the visitors will look to climb up the points table after some recent clinical performances. This will be the second time these two teams will face each other this season, with SRH outplaying CSK by registering a 6-wicket victory in the previous meeting.

Chennai Super Kings started their campaign on a high but recently, they have not been performing up to their stature. CSK have now lost two consecutive games for the first time since their comeback to the IPL in 2018. MS Dhoni played an unbelievable knock of 84(48) against RCB, however, his heroics went in vain as his side fell short by just one run. Their batting lineup seems vulnerable against quality pace bowling as apart from Dhoni and Ambati Rayudu, no other batsmen have been consistently scoring runs for them. The hosts would be hoping to land a counter punch and avenge their previous defeat at the hands of Hyderabad.

Meanwhile, Sunrisers Hyderabad have been in decent form after a string of poor performances. After losing three matches on the trot, the SRH bounced back to register two back-to-back victories. Kane Williamson would be eyeing to make it three in a row when they collide with CSK. Jonny Bairstow will play his final game before leaving to England for the upcoming World Cup preparations. He along with David Warner have played some aggressive cricket with the bat to dominate their opponents and score quick runs in the powerplays.
