KKR vs CSK Dream11 Team Prediction: Kolkata Knight Riders will have their task cut out when they play an in-form Chennai Super Kings at Wankhede Stadium on Wednesday evening (IST). Eoin Morgan is feeling the heat with the Englishman’s decision-making at the moment far from perfect. His players are not backing him up as well. The results and the performances warrant either a change in the team combination or require a drastic change in the tactics. Chennai Super Kings, on the other hand, don’t need to flirt with their winning combination. We expect them to go unchanged against KKR. Here, for the KKR vs CSK Dream11 Team Prediction, we name three players who could make all the right noise.
1. Ambati Rayudu: His 27-run inning was his best performance for CSK this season. He looked imperiously threatening during his little cameo. But the fact that he couldn’t extend his stay on the crease despite looking so good, is a big worry for CSK, in the long run. Together with Suresh Raina, Rayudu is CSK’s batting lynchpin. The Yellow Army will be even better if the 35-year-old improves his output.
Why You Should Pick Ambati Rayudu In Your Dream11 Teams:
Ambati Rayudu in IPL As A Batsman* Matches: 162 Not Outs: 27 Runs: 3709 High-Scores: 100* Strike-Rate: 129.36 100s: 01 50s: 19 4s: 309 6s: 137
2. Shubman Gill: The combined run tally of 69 runs after three games doesn’t bode well with the incredible talent of Shubman Gill. KKR look much better as a batting unit if Gills stay on the pitch. The 21-year-old will have to prolong his time on the pitch if the two-time champions are to fight better against the opponent.
Shubman Gill in IPL As A Batsman* Matches: 44 Not Outs: 10 Runs: 1008 High-Scores: 76 Strike-Rate: 126.64 100s: 01 50s: 07 4s: 95 6s: 28
3. Eoin Morgan: Dinesh Karthik stepped down from the captaincy role for the better of the team, but KKR are more or less the same at the moment. In fact, the burden of captaining an IPL team seems to be getting into him as his own batting output is nowhere near it can be.
Why You Should Pick Eoin Morgan In Your Dream11 Teams:
Eoin Morgan in IPL As A Batsman* Matches: 69 Not Outs: 09 Runs: 1310 High-Scores: 68* Strike-Rate: 125.96 100s: 00 50s: 05 4s: 106 6s: 60
