Chennai Super Kings(CSK) gave All-rounder Sam Curran a chance to open the innings in their game which took off successfully. The batsmen still haven't been able to up the scoring rate however there seem to be some tactical changes made. Faf du Plessis will be a key batsman for the team in this match.
