CSK vs KKR Tips, Stats & Team for Today Match Prediction
Match: CSK vs KKR IPL T20 Match Prediction
Time: 26 March, 07:30 PM (IST)
Series: IPL T20 Match
Venue: Wankhede Stadium - Mumbai, India
Info:
Ruturaj Gaikwad finished as the leading run scorer in the 2021 IPL and is our tip for CSK’s highest run scorer in this match. With the ball, all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja took 13 wickets last season and the spinner is well worth backing as CSK’s top wicket taker against KKR.
Captain Shreyas Iyer struck 519 runs during the 2020 IPL before missing a large chunk of last season through injury. He is our pick for KKR’s highest run scorer in this game. Spinner Varun Chakravarthy has taken 35 wickets across the last two IPL seasons and is a strong choice for KKR’s top wicket taker against CSK.
CSK have plenty of match winners in their side and we expect to see a strong all-round performance from Ravindra Jadeja. He is our prediction for the Player of the Match Award.

Team News:
CSK Team News:
The 2021 Champions will be looking to begin this campaign with as many of their star performers from last season in their XI. However, English all-rounder Moeen Ali has not yet received his visa and is likely to miss this opening game. We expect to see New Zealand’s Devon Conway make his CSK debut in this match.
KKR Team News:
There were plenty of changes to the KKR squad ahead of IPL 2022 season with the biggest change coming in the captaincy position. Out has gone Eoin Morgan with Shreyas Iyer now leading the side. Australia captain Pat Cummins will miss this game as it comes too soon after the conclusion of the Test series in Pakistan.

Who will win today match: CSK vs KKR IPL T20 Match Fantasy Team
This should be an excellent fixture to get the 2022 IPL underway in Mumbai. Although both teams have not had a smooth build-up to this game, with disruptions caused by international matches, withdrawals, injuries and visas, we still expect an entertaining clash. Our prediction is for CSK to win a very close game.
CSK Key Players:
Ruturaj Gaikwad:
No player scored more runs than the CSK opener in last year’s tournament. He averaged 51.00 in 2020 and 45.35 in 2021.
Ravindra Jadeja:
The all-rounder was brilliant for CSK last season and has been in fine form with bat and ball for India in recent weeks in the Test series against Sri Lanka.
Dwayne Bravo:
The experienced all-rounder has now retired from international cricket but still has a huge amount to give to CSK. He took 14 wickets in last season’s IPL.
KKR Key Players:
Shreyas Iyer:
The newly installed captain of KKR has been in fantastic form of late. He hit unbeaten scores of 57, 74 and 73 in the recent India v Sri Lanka IT20 series.
Andre Russell:
The West Indian all-rounder struggled for consistency last season but still hit a half-century and took a 5-wicket haul. He is always a potential match-winner.
Varun Chakravarthy:
The right-arm spinner made his international debut in July of last year and is a very consistent wicket-taking bowler in this tournament.
