The two teams have had squared off against each other 27 times in IPL history. Chennai has the upper hand in head-to-head battles with 17 wins from 27 games against Delhi who have only won 10 matches.
This season, the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai has witnessed high-scoring matches, with the pitch not being as slow as it used to be. A competitive total on this surface would generally be above 175, which can be a difficult target as the pitch slows down in afternoon games. Thus, the team winning the toss would be wise to choose to bat first, avoiding batting later on a surface that loses its pace.
If we talk about the last game, Mumbai Indians never really got going as they could only manage 139 on a dry and flat surface for the loss of 8 wickets. The score was easily chased down by CSK in just 17.4 overs, but one can expect a better display of batting CSK vs DC match especially if CSK bats first. Therefore, expect a good batting deck.
