CSK vs LSG Dream11 match top picks
Top Wicketkeeper Pick
KL Rahul (8 off 12 in the previous game vs DC)
KL Rahul did not have the best of starts to his IPL season, scoring only eight runs against the Delhi Capitals. However, Rahul is one of the top players in the competition with over 500 runs to his name last season.
With Rahul averaging 47.52 in IPL cricket, he is a must-have in your CSK vs LSG Dream11 prediction team.
Top Batter Pick
Ruturaj Gaikwad (92 off 50 in the previous game vs GT)
Ruturaj Gaikwad, on the other hand, had a terrific start to his IPL season, scoring 92 runs against the Gujarat Titans. Gaikwad is a brilliant player of spin and can hold his own against quality pace as well.
Given his form and ability to score big runs, Gaikwad is a top pick for your CSK vs LSG Dream11 prediction team.
Top All-rounder Pick
Moeen Ali (23 off 17 in the previous game vs GT)
Moeen Ali is one of the best all-rounders in the world with 933 runs at a strike rate of 143.76 in his IPL career. He showed glimpses of his ability in the previous game, scoring 23 runs against the Gujarat Titans.
With Moeen being a good player of spin and likely to play a part with his off-spin as well, he is a good addition to your CSK vs LSG Dream11 prediction team.
Top Bowler Pick
Mark Wood (5/14 in the previous game vs DC)
Mark Wood was the standout bowler in the Super Giants' win against the Capitals, picking a fifer on his franchise debut. He is one of the fastest bowlers in the world and has been in brilliant form over the last year or so.
With Wood already starting the season in fine fashion, he is bound to be a popular pick in CSK vs LSG Dream11 prediction teams.
