Sanju Samson vs Vaibhav Arora
CSK opener Sanju Samson has been bought in for the IPL 2026 season in the form of a trade, probably one of the most hectic ones in the history of the competition. Sanju was dismissed for three single-digit scores before turning out with a massive hundred at the Chidambaram Stadium. Vaibhav Arora has had a fine role to play as a seamer. He has been KKR’s main paceman with the new ball.
Angkrish Raghuvanshi vs Anshul Kamboj
The KKR youngster has been one of their most promising batting options, despite the team losing all the matches until now. Raghuvanshi has amassed consecutive half-centuries before missing out on the third by a very close margin. Anshul Kamboj has been CSK’s highest wicket-taker and would be crucial in the middle-overs battle against Kamboj.
Rovman Powell vs Jamie Overton
KKR have several big hitters lined up in the form of Cameron Green, the big Australian all-rounder and Indian batter Rinku Singh. However, neither of these batters has had the best record against the other. Rovamn Powell was first included in the side in the last game, and he played a crucial knock in the role of a finisher.
Overton, on the other hand, had picked four wickets in the last game and has often been effective towards the phase when Powell operates in the death overs.
