April 21, 2023

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) followers might lastly get to see the star all-rounder Ben Stokes on the pitch at Chepauk on Friday evening as he seems to be match sufficient to be enjoying once more. Stokes smashed the bowlers within the nets, a day earlier than the conflict vs Sunrisers Hyderabad and appears in good contact too. Stokes had sustained a toe harm as a result of which he missed three back-to-back video games for CSK. Stokes is more likely to function within the enjoying 11 of CSK vs SRH. Captain MS Dhoni and the management group should take into consideration the methods to get Stokes in.

Who will Stokes exchange in CSK Playing XI?

There are solely 4 abroad gamers allowed within the enjoying 11. Devon Conway is a sure starter for CSK as Dhoni doesn’t consider in fixing issues which aren’t damaged. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Conway have executed a very good job opening the innings. Even if both of them weren’t amongst runs, Dhoni wouldn’t have touched them. They are his greatest choices on the prime.

Matheesha Pathirana (the pacer) and Maheesh Theekshana (the spinner) had good final sport vs RCB. They picked 3 wickets amongst them even when they went for runs at M Chinnaswamy, which has shorter boundaries. That means the one abroad slot left is that of Moeen Ali. Knowing the character of the CSK monitor, Moeen’s off-spin may come helpful. It will definitely be a candy headache for Dhoni with Stokes again into reckoning. But this robust name should be taken earlier than toss, that may occur at 7 pm IST.

Adil Rashid may play for SRH

It is very seemingly that Sunrisers embrace England leg-spinner Adil Rashid within the enjoying 11 for CSK. He might are available in for Marco Jansen. Rashid is a confirmed match-winner on this format and on surfaces which could assist him, Rashid should play. Chennai has been a spin-friendly monitor historically. Not to overlook, Dhoni struggles vs leg spin. Having Rashid within the enjoying 11 would possibly simply do the job for Sunrisers on this match.
