KKR vs CSK Dream11

MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings will take on two-time Indian Premier League (IPL) champions Kolkata Knight Riders in match 21 of the tournament. Both the teams have won two games so far in this edition, but KKR occupies a better spot in the Points Table. The Sheikh Zayed Stadium of Abu Dhabi will host this game on October 7 (Wednesday) from 7:30 PM (IST) onwards. Let’s look at our fantasy 11 predictions for this clash and here are top picks for KKR vs CSK.

Team Preview

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR)

Kolkata Knight Riders

Dinesh Karthi-led Kolkata Kolkata Knight Riders have won two and lost as many games in this tournament so far. Their last encounter came against table-toppers Delhi Capitals where they suffered a comprehensive loss. The biggest concern for them is the current form of skipper Karthik who has failed to post any big score on the board.

Sunil Narine has also not provided a great start while batting at the top. But after a statement from their team management, the West Indian will continue doing that. As a result, KKR is expected to take the field with the same XI.

Chennai Super Kings (CSK)

Shane Watson and Faf de Plessis

Chennai Super Kings are currently placed in the bottom half of the Points Table. After a few losses in their initial matches, CSK registered one of the greatest victories of this tournament. MS Dhoni and co. beat Kings XI Punjab by ten wickets to clinch their second win of IPL 2020.

Moreover, the comeback of Shane Watson in that game will give them the much-needed boost for this tournament. With experienced players in all the departments, CSK is set to continue with the winning combination in their clash against KKR.
