It will be an iconic battle between two superpowers in the top-5 as the Chennai Super Kings will host the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium on Sunday.

The five-time former champions have had a bittersweet run with 4 wins and 4 losses. Skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad has led from the front for his team but is seeking contribution in the opening unit. The bowling unit, on the other hand, is anchored by CSK’s ace pacer Matheesha Pathirana, who will be in action with Mustafizur Rahman and Deepak Chahar.
