SRH vs CSK Dream11 Prediction: We are exactly at half-way mark of this year’s IPL and all the teams have played half of their matches. Two teams in bottom half of the table will be up against each other today at Dubai. Chennai Super Kings are in even more precarious position than Sunrisers Hyderabad with only two wins from first half of the season. We will preview SRH vs CSK Dream11 contest.

Sunrisers Hyderabad had to suffer a late assault at the hands of Rajasthan Royals in their last match. Batting first, Jonny Bairstow and David Warner had an unusual slow start due to some disciplined bowling with Englishman being dismissed in the 5^th over. After that, David Warner and Manish Pandey came together for a steady partnership. Both made 48 & 54 respectively as Kane Williamson and Priyam Garg applied the finishing touches. Defending 158, SRH bowlers began brilliantly as they scalped RR top order cheaply. After losing 5 wickets on the score of 78 runs, Riyan Parag and Rahul Tewatia scripted an unbelievable turnaround to take RR home as SRH missed their sixth bowling option. Khaleel Ahmed and Rashid Khan took two wickets each.

Chennai Super Kings are not at their best so far in this year’s competition clearly. They are coming off from a heavy loss against RCB at the same venue. Bowling first, CSK made a good start with picking up openers and AB de Villiers cheaply. But they had no answers to Virat Kohli masterclass in the death overs. RCB put 169 runs on the board while Shardul Thakur picked up two wickets. In reply, CSK lost their in-form openers early. Ambati Rayudu and Narayan Jagadeesan stitched a partnership but it was too slow to push any case for the chase. CSK middle order was up against it as required rate kept climbing for them. No one threatened to cause any danger to RCB as CSK were restricted to only 132 runs. RCB won the match by 37 runs to take two points.

In head-to-head comparisons, Chennai Super Kings are ahead with 10 wins over Sunrisers Hyderabad, who have only 4 from 14 matches played between them. In last 5 matches, CSK are having a lead of 3-2 over their rivals. In the first meeting this year, SRH beat CSK by 7 runs at the same venue.  

Pitch and Conditions

It is pretty much evident that pitches are beginning to slow down as we move into the second half of the season. Totals are getting lower and batsmen are finding it difficult to pace their innings. Dubai is also following the same pattern as other venues with setting up a total is a relatively easy work compared to chasing. Dew can also play a role in the second innings of the match.

SRH vs CSK Dream11 Team Prediction

Let’s take a look at the squad news and SRH Vs CSK Dream11 predictions for today’s encounter.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Team News

• Sunrisers Hyderabad are likely to go unchanged in today’s encounter even after their loss in the last match.
• David Warner and Jonny Bairstow are arguably the best opening pair of the competition and that’s where SRH’s strength lies.
• Manish Pandey got the score he was looking for in the last match against Rajasthan Royals. Kane Williamson has been magnificent so far with couple of cameos but Mohammad Nabi can offer a better overall balance to the side.
• Priyam Garg and Abhishek Sharma have done well while Vijay Shankar should retain his place after just one outing.
• Rashid Khan has stepped up as the leader of the attack after Bhuvneshwar Kumar ruled out. T Natarajan is best of their Indian pacers so far with Khaleel Ahmed also bowling well in the last match.

Chennai Super Kings Team News

• There is nothing much that CSK can do about their playing XI as they are not having enough options in the squad itself.
• Shane Watson and Faf du Plessis will open and a lot will depend on these two from CSK’s point of view. Ambati Rayudu will play at number 3 position but he needs to show intent as a senior player in the side. Narayan Jagadeesan struggled in the last match but should get another opportunity today.
• CSK have batted second in all of their matches so far and the lower middle order of MS Dhoni, Sam Curran and Ravindra Jadeja is coming into play very late. They should change something up and use one of the left-handers as a floater.
• Karn Sharma will be their only specialist spinner while Dwayne Bravo, Deepak Chahar and Shardul Thakur will take care of fast-bowling duties in SRH vs CSK Dream11 prediction.

Captain Picks

For Small Leagues

• David Warner should be the first pick from today’s encounter. He is an all-time great in T20 cricket with an impeccable consistency. He is not at his aggressive best currently but still giving us enough scores. His last 3 scores are: 48, 52 & 60.
• Jonny Bairstow is another premier option from SRH today. He is a kind of player that makes big impact in limited overs cricket and you can’t afford to miss out on these players. He needs to play out the opening spell from Deepak Chahar today as he was dismissed by the same bowler in the first match.
• Faf du Plessis still remains the best pick from Chennai Super Kings. He had low scores in last couple of matches but he is still in top 3 for the runs scored this season. He has scored 307 runs at an average of 61.40 from 7 innings.

For Grand Leagues

• Rashid Khan will enjoy the conditions here in UAE as the pitches get tired in the second half. Batsmen are still struggling to pick him and Rashid Khan often gets wickets when batsmen are going after him. He has 10 scalps from 7 matches and looks set to add further to his tally.
• Shane Watson is a good option for the grand leagues. He failed in the last match but had scored two half-centuries before that innings. He is not consistent enough for the captaincy position but given the lack of options from CSK, he can be your differential.
• Sam Curran rarely gets through the match without any contributions. He has the knack of picking up wickets and with him bowling in the death overs, his variations come into play big time. With an out-of-form CSK batting lineup, he is likely to get opportunities with the bat also.

Who will win SRH vs CSK Today Match Prediction?

As per our Today Match Prediction, Sunrisers Hyderabad are favourites to win this match against Chennai Super Kings.
