Chennai Super Kings

Who will win IPL match today

The odds are in favor of Delhi Capitals but DC are unsettled at the moment with 2 of their premium fast bowlers not available for the game. Their batting unit with Ajinkya Rahane at 3 looks pathetic as well.

Chennai Super Kings on the other hand have MS Dhoni who is known for his captaincy skills and handling of resources. This game might not be as one sided as the odds are suggesting. CSK are a completely different outfit this time around with the experienced campaigner in Suresh Raina adding value to their top order who went missing in IPL 2020.
