CSK vs SRH: IPL 2023 team news
Chennai Super Kings have been plagued with injuries, yet they have done well to register three wins out of five games and are placed comfortably in the third position on the points table.
Devon Conway was seen doing wicketkeeping drills in training and MS Dhoni has been seen walking with a slight limp after games due to his dodgy knee. If he is not fit enough to play, Conway might take the gloves. CSK don’t have a designated vice-captain and it will be interesting to see who fills in for Dhoni the captain, in case he misses out. Ben Stokes is also back training in the nets and should be available for this game. Whether he makes the XI or not will depend on the conditions on offer.
Sunrisers Hyderabad have underwhelmed so far in this tournament. Mayank Agarwal finally got some runs in the last game, but he didn’t get them at a good enough pace. Umran Malik (ER 11.09), T Natarajan (ER 10.56), and Washington Sundar (ER 9.27) have all been disappointing with the ball.
If the Chennai wicket plays like it normally does, they might think about bringing in an additional international spinner in the form of Akeal Hossein or Adil Rashid in place of Marco Jansen.

CSK vs SRH: IPL prediction for today’s match 29
Chennai are in much better shape as a team despite their injury concerns and will have the added advantage of playing at their home ground. The Sunrisers have never won against CSK at Chepauk and it will be sort of an upset if they do so tonight.
