The second match of Saturday’s double-header will see MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings taking on Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore in a mouth-watering clash. Both the teams have struggled for consistency so far and will be looking to get back to winning ways today.

Chennai Super Kings have managed just 2 wins from their opening six games and are languishing at the sixth spot in the points table. Their batting, especially the middle order, has underperformed so far. The three-time champions have scored at 7.6 runs per over in the powerplay this year- the second lowest among all teams – and the performance from the middle-order is even worse.

With the likes of MS Dhoni, Ambati Rayudu and Kedar Jadhav not in good touch, they have failed to close their innings strongly. In their last game against KKR, they were 99 for 1 after 12 overs while chasing 168 but eventually lost the game by ten runs.

However, they will be low on confidence after the heavy loss against Delhi Capitals in their previous game. They had lost the game by 59 runs while chasing 194.
