IPL 2020: Chennai Super Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders fantasy 11 predictions: Top Dream11 picks for CSK vs KKR


MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings will lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders in the 49th match of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020. The two sides will be up against each other at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai on October 29 (Thursday) from 7:30 PM (IST) onwards.
This game comes with a lot of importance for the Kolkata-based franchise as they currently hold the fifth spot in the Points Table. With a victory in this match, they will climb up to the fourth position to improve their chances of qualifying for the playoffs. On the other hand, CSK will play for pride as they are already out of the contention of making it to the knockouts.
Last time when these two teams met, KKR registered a nail-biting victory by ten runs at Abu Dhabi. Let’s look at our fantasy 11 predictions for this clash and here are top picks for CSK vs KKR.
Team Preview
Chennai Super Kings (CSK)

With four wins in 12 matches, CSK occupies the end spot in the Points Table. MS Dhoni and co is also the first franchise to get ruled from the IPL 2020, despite registering a good victory in their previous game against Royal Challengers Bangalore. They have given a chance to several youngsters in their last few games and will stick with them in this clash as well.
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR)

Kolkata Knight Riders moved out from the top four after their defeat in the last match against Kings XI Punjab. The Eoin Morgan-led side needs a victory in this clash to regain a spot in the top half of the table. Just like their opponents, the Kolkata-based franchise will also take the field with the same playing XI.
