Fans can only crave for excitement in these IPL matches! Match number forty-nine will see CSK up against the Punjab Kings at MA Chidambaram Stadium. And what a season it has been for the Super Kings, having eked out only two wins in nine matches and languishing at the bottom of the points table!
The Punjab Kings, meanwhile, are in a much better position, being placed fifth and vying for a top-four finish. They want to win this match.
Here are some records that might come into play in the game:
1. MS Dhoni’s 150 catches for CSK
The fans are nostalgic for seeing MS Dhoni leading the men once again. With credit to his speed behind the stumps, he is just 3 catches short of 150 catches for CSK.
2. Ravindra Jadeja 150 wickets for the yellow army
Ravindra Jadeja is a vital cog in the CSK spin attack. He is closer to achieving it with only 2 wickets shy of his 150th with the team. Chepauk crowd would be eagerly looking out for him!
3. Marcus Stoinis 2000 runs in IPL
Stoinis is famous for his all-around ability and imposing batting. He is only 67 runs short of the magical number of 2000 runs in the IPL. If he gets going, the crowd is definitely in for a treat!
