Both teams have been struggling, and it would be anybody’s guess who starts this match as a favourite. It is the sixes market that I am looking at, and I am putting my money on Hyderabad scoring the most sixes in the match.
- Sunrisers Hyderabad hit the most sixes in 4 of their last 5 matches against Chennai Super Kings.
- CSK have conceded the most match sixes in their last 7 matches.
- Chennai hit a league-low 5.38 sixes per match this season.
- Chennai have also conceded 10.13 sixes per match, a joint-league high this season.
Head to Head
The Chennai Super Kings enjoy playing this fixture and have a 16-6 win-loss record against the Sunrisers Hyderabad from the 22 matches played so far.
This run included winning all five matches played at the Chepauk Stadium. These teams also played here last season, when Chennai won by 78 runs.
Chennai Super Kings Form
Chennai Super Kings are bottom of the points tally with just four points in their kitty so far (W2, L6). They have the same number of points as Rajasthan and Hyderabad but have the worst run rate among the three teams.
The Super Kings were beaten by nine wickets in their last match, played on Sunday at the Wankhede. Their record at this venue isn’t great either, as they lost their three recent matches played here.
Shivam Dube (230 runs, SR 133.72) is their top scorer of the season, but none of the other batters have been consistent. With the ball, it is Noor Ahmad (12 wickets) and Khaleel Ahmed (11) who have shone for the Super Kings.
Chennai Super Kings Team News
Jamie Overton continues to flounder, and Chennai could look at Nathan Ellis. Dewald Brevis joined the side as a replacement for Ruturaj Gaikwad and may be blooded into the playing XI.
Sunrisers Hyderabad Form
Sunrisers Hyderabad also have four points (W2, L6) and are ninth in the standings, only above the Super Kings on net run rate. They have lost their last two matches in a row, both against Mumbai.
A seven-wicket loss to the Mumbai Indians on Wednesday underlined Hyderabad’s concerns. Travis Head (242) and Abhishek Sharma (240) remain two of their top three batters, but their inconsistencies have been their bane.
Even with the ball, there hasn’t been a leader for the Sunrisers. The highest wicket-taker for the Hyderabad franchise is Harshal Patel (nine wickets), but most of their regular bowlers have struggled with their economy rates, conceding more than nine runs per over.

Nitish Reddy has struggled all through the season, but will they replace him with Atharva Taide or Sachin Baby?

Verdict
This is a match between two teams that have struggled for consistency and efficiency all through the season. Despite their struggles, the Chennai Super Kings could take advantage of playing the Sunrisers Hyderabad at home, as their previous record suggests. I am backing Sunrisers Hyderabad to score the most match 6s.
