How do the teams stack up?
Chennai Super Kings
With Bravo fulfilling the role of the 3 rd pacer, they are still looking for the 5 th bowler. Watson and Thakur have proved their might in powerplay and death overs. Jadeja back in form is a bonus but no one is there to back him up. Harbhajan and Karan Sharma both, have failed. They need to figure this out quick now as the race is coming to an end. The Batting line is great, as always, and looks like a team effort in that part. They might want to try Nigidi or Tahir again.
Sunrisers Hyderabad
SRH has undoubtedly the best bowling side this season. With Dhawan and Williamson giving a good start, the batting lineup has also shown a depth with Shakib, Pandey and Pathan. They would not want to make any changes and continue with their winning team. They will try not to repeat the mistakes they made against Delhi because this time it is CSK. They will have to dominate in all fields if they want to win against Dhoni & co. Bhuvi is doing a great job leading his bowling squad. Rashid has proved himself, time and again, with his spin.
