The 22nd match of IPL 2024 will be played between Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders on April 8 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Talking about the performance of the last match of both the teams before this match, Kolkata had registered a big win against Delhi Capitals, while Chennai had to face defeat at the hands of Sunrisers Hyderabad. In such a situation, now it has to be seen what changes Chennai makes in its playing XI especially for this match.

Chennai Super Kings (Chennai Super Kings, CSK)

Chennai started this season with a bang. The team won the first two matches this season but after that they lost two consecutive matches, which is now a matter of concern for the team. In such a situation, if the team wants to make a comeback in the upcoming matches, then they will have to play good cricket and overcome some weaknesses.

The biggest problem for Chennai is the form of captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, he has not been able to play a single big innings so far this season. At the same time, after the departure of Mustafizur and Pathirana, CSK’s bowling is also looking very weak. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see what changes the team makes in its playing combination for the match against KKR.

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR)

Talking about Kolkata, the team has played a total of three matches this season and has won all of them. Looking at the way KKR’s batsmen are batting this season, it seems that they can destroy any bowling line-up, while their bowlers also seem to be in great form this season, in such a situation, they are looking for their winning combination. Hardly anyone should tamper with it. It is quite possible that he will field with the same playing XI.
