Chennai Super Kings will have their task cut out when they face Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Friday. CSK lost their last match against Delhi Capitals after winning their first two. While SRH have won only one match where they made an IPL record for the highest-ever total. Ahead of the SRH vs CSK clash, let’s take a look at the predicted Playing XI for both teams.
SRH to remain unchanged
Despite their two losses in three games, SRH have shown they can beat any team on their day. Although they lost to Gujarat Titans in their last match, they are unlikely to force any changes in the Playing XI just now. Although Mayank Agarwal’s opening slot is under fire for the dearth of runs, he is likely to get a few more chances.
Sunrisers Hyderabad Probable Playing XI vs CSK
Mayank Agarwal, Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, Abdul Samad, Shahbaz Ahmed, Pat Cummins, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Markande, Jaydev Unadkat
Impact sub: Washington Sundar/Umran Malik
Maheesh Theekshana to replace Mustafizur Rahman for CSK
Mustafizur Rahman has been a fantastic weapon for CSK, having taken four wickets in the first match vs RCB. However, CSK will be forced into making the change because Mustafizur has flown to Bangladesh for his visa application for the USA, where the T20 World Cup will be taking place in June. Maheesh Theekshana is likely to replace him.
