Second matches from both sides will happen at the MA Chidambaram Stadium Chennai.
CSK is now standing 7th after the loss in the opening match while LSG is standing in 2nd place after a great win over SRH.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK):
After 4 long years Chennai is back to their native ground and this ground is also CSK friendly as they won 40 out 56 matches played here. Dhoni will definitely try to open their win account from here and will increase the number of wins here. Since CSK played their last match in 2019 therefore most of the players will experience their fresher match here. Dhoni might try Prashant Solanki along with Moeen Ali and Santner because the pitch mostly favors the wrist spinners here.
Currently the orange cap is holded by Ruturaj Gaikwad whose 92 runs innings in just 50 balls helps CSK to put up a solid score. Another key finder was Rajvardhan Hangargekar whose spells of 4 overs conceded 36 runs and took 3 important wickets due to which the scoreboard slowed down for GT for a certain time period.

LUCKNOW SUPER GIANTS (LSG):
LSG’s super win over DC with a margin of 50 runs definitely boosted their confidence level. In the absence of some of their key players they outclass DC in every department. It was their first home game and they pleased their fans with the win. LSG will face the pitch for the first time and many of the players will also experience the same. LSG might try Krishnappa Gowtham for more spin options.
Mark Wood received the purple cap with his superb bowling spell of 4 overs and conceded just only 14 runs and took 5 crucial wickets for the team. It was his just 2nd match and he proved his worth. In the absence of De Kock, Kyle Mayers took the charge and scored a rocket fire innings of 73 runs with just 38 balls. In the end Nicholas Pooran bashed 36 runs in just 21 balls.
