Chennai Super Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders Predictions

The Knight Riders have lost three of their five games, but they are still in far better form than the Super Kings, who are on a four-match losing streak. I’m backing the Knight Riders to get back to winning ways.

Kolkata Knight Riders’ Ajinkya Rahane has scored 56, 38 & 61 in his last 5 innings.
Kolkata Knight Riders’ Venkatesh Iyer has scored 60 & 45 in his last 2 innings.
Chennai Super Kings’ Devon Conway has scored 66, 30 & 69 in his last 5 innings.
Chennai Super Kings’ Rachin Ravindra has scored 65*, 41 & 36 in his last 5 innings.

Head-to-Head

The Super Kings have won three of the last five matches against the Knight Riders, including two of the last three.

Chennai Super Kings Form

The Super Kings suffered their fourth loss on the bounce when they lost to the Punjab Kings by 18 runs.

The Punjab Kings were put under huge pressure after a superb bowling display from the Super Kings attack, led by Khaleel Ahmed (2/45) and Ravi Ashwin (2/48), that reduced them to 83/5. The tail wagged superbly to allow Punjab to rack up 219/6 off their 20 overs.

The Super Kings got off to a great start thanks to Rachin Ravindra (36 off 23 balls) and Devon Conway (69 off 49), aided by 42 off 27 balls from Shivam Dube. They couldn’t maintain the asking rate at the end, finishing 18 runs short with four wickets in hand.

Chennai Super Kings Team News

The Super Kings need their middle-order batters to offer greater support to Rachin Ravindra and Devon Conway.

Kolkata Knight Riders Form

After picking up their second win of the season, the Knight Riders crashed to a third defeat when they lost agonisingly to the Super Giants.

The Super Giants amassed 238/3 off their 20 overs. Harshit Rana (2/51) was the most successful with the ball.

In response, the Knight Riders chased superbly through Ajinkya Rahane (61 off 35 balls) and Venkatesh Iyer (45 off 29). Despite strong hitting down the order, they ended just four runs short on 234/7 off their 20 overs.

Kolkata Knight Riders Team News

There are no injury reports from the Kolkata Knight Riders squad.

Verdict

Chennai Super Kings v Kolkata Knight Riders

I am backing Kolkata Knight Riders to win. I am also backing Ajinkya Rahane to top score for Kolkata Knight Riders.

Devon Conway is a good bet to top score for the Chennai Super Kings.
