IPL 2020, Kolkata Knight Riders VS Chennai Super Kings: Match Details

• Date – Thursday, 29-October 2020
• Time – 7:30 PM IST
• Venue – Dubai International Stadium, Dubai

KKR VS CSK Match Preview:

Kolkata Knight Riders have been an inconsistent team this season, the last match against KXIP was yet another example of this. Shubman Gill scoring runs was the only good thing which KKR will look forward to. Wicket-Keeper batsman Tim Seifert could come in as the extra batsman in a must-win tie for KKR. 

Varun Chakaravarthy has been the only bowler to have bowled with consistency this season for Kolkata. Lockie Ferguson could prove to the game-changer with his variations in the bowling. 

Chennai Super Kings finally "sparked" in the last match against RCB. Youngster Ruturaj Gaikwad played a match-winning knock to take the team home. With only two matches left in their campaign of IPL 2020, CSK might go with an all-out attack and MS Dhoni could provide some entertainment with the bat. 

The bowlers were disciplined in the previous match. Picking two overseas spinners - Mitchell Santner and Imran Tahir proved successful. The management might go with the same playing XI for this match. 

Kolkata Knight Riders will be playing a must-win game against a team that is already eliminated from the tournament - Chennai Super Kings. CSK might play a spoilsport in KKR's campaign.
