CSK v DC: 50th IPL Match Probable Playing XI - Battle Of Table Toppers

In the 50th match of IPL 2021, Delhi Capitals will take on Chennai Super Kings in Dubai on 4th October. 

Delhi Capitals' batting hasn't been in the best of forms. A lot depends on Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant in the middle overs since Prithvi Shaw and Shikhar Dhawan haven't been consistent. Sam Billings might come in place of Steve Smith in this match. 

The bowling has been world-class. Avesh Khan has been the pick of the bowlers, he is consistently taking wickets and not giving loose runs. Anrich Nortje has been brilliant as well. 

Chennai Super Kings batting is being led by Ruturaj Gaikwad while the others have given good enough support to the youngster. Suresh Raina's form is a concern and CSK might bring in Robin Uthappa. 

There could be a change in personnel as the management might give rest to Shardul Thakur and bring back Deepak Chahar. Josh Hazlewood too could get rested for Jason Behrendorff. 

The north vs south rivalry has been dominated by Chennai. Out of 24 matches against DC, CSK has won 15.

DC v CSK Head-to-Head:

• Total – 24
