KL Rahul confirmed a second of brilliance on the sector when he took a one-handed stunner to ship Chennai Super Kings batter Ajinkya Rahane again to the hut. LSG and CSK lock horns towards one another in a reverse fixture on the latter’s residence in Chennai. LSG received the toss and requested CSK to bat first on the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai.
Matt Henry, taking part in in his second match of the season, made an early strike as he eliminated Rahane in the opening over on the again of a spectacular catch from skipper Rahul. The dismissal appeared a well-set plan because the bowler bowled size balls up till the wicket supply, which was fuller. The first slip was put wider than the unique place and Rahul displayed a good flying effort to take the catch close to the primary slip.Â
After bowling size deliveries, Henry went for the fuller ball that held its line outdoors the off stump proper in the hall of uncertainty like a Test match ball. Rahane went for the drive and received a little poke on the ball. The ball travelled between the wicketkeeper and the vast slip. Rahul had hardly any time to react and a few long way to cowl. He lept in the air to his proper, caught his proper hand out and grabbed the ball to full a good catch.

LSG received the toss and opted to bowl first. While the guests made no change to their taking part in XI, the hosts went with one key change. They dropped Rachin Ravindra and introduced again Daryl Mitchell for the clash.
“We’ll bowl first. There is a bit of dew, we have trained here and there is a bit of dew that will play an impact. Wicket is a bit slow and hopefully we can put their batters under pressure. (On previous win) We played well in all three facets, but we have left the result back in Lucknow. We know how challenging Chennai is, everyone will be cheering for them. Same team for us. No need to quieten the crowd, they always encourage good cricket,” LSG skipper Rahul stated on the toss.
“Nothing different, but the coin toss is something I need to work on. I’ve lost seven in a row I think. There will be some dew later on, but you never know how the wicket will surprise you. You just need to go out there and express yourself, if the ball is in your area then just attack it. Hoping to set the foundation upfront. One change for us – Daryl comes in for Rachin. Pretty good to have three home games, but for that we will need to win some tosses. However, it doesn’t matter if you are batting first or bowling first, you need to play good cricket here to win,” Gaikwad stated on the flip of the coin.
