MA Chidambaram Stadium Pitch Analysis

The first match played here was enough to tell how the pitch here behaves. Chennai restricted RCB to a respectable score and their power hitters couldn’t display their batting prowess. The pitches here are slow and sluggish but Batsman that apply themselves and spend some time in the crease have been successful in the past.

Let’s take a look at the top captain and vice-captains picks for your fantasy teams:

CSK vs GT: Top Three Players You Can Pick As Captain:

Mustafizur Rahman

Fizz was the man of the match in the first game taking four key wickets of RCB helping CSK win the game. Mustafizur as a bowler is best suited in these conditions giving him home like feels (dhaka) . His slower ones and cutters will be effective from bowl one . He’s a great captaincy option.

Rashid Khan

Rashid Khan’s googly and bowling finesse was the reason MI choked in chasing the game in the first match . Chennai ‘s slow pitch will be a bowling heaven for Rashid making him a perfect choice for captaincy.

Shubman Gill

Shubman Gill looked in a great touch in the first game before being caught out in the long off for a score of 31. He has been a consistent scorer for GT and with his added captaincy duties he would like to score big runs in this match . He is a great captaincy choice considering his attacking skills against spin bowling.

Rachin Ravindra

Rachin Ravindra was phenomenal, scoring 37 in just 15 balls at a strike rate of 246.67 in his IPL debut. He couldn’t make it big due to him attacking on every bowl, in this match he would learn from his mistakes and try to solidify his position as an opener scoring more runs. He is a decent choice for vice captain.

Ravindra Jadeja

The new Ravindra is yet to be seen as a consistent performer for CSK but Ravindra Jadeja has been the backbone of this team.
Last match too he bowled a great spell without giving much runs also finishing the match with Shivam Dube . Jadeja loves scoring runs against GT making him a good pick for vice captain.

Mohit Sharma

Along with Rashid Khan, Mohit Sharma ‘s experience was the reason GT defeated MI. Mohit has been a consistent performer for GT since IPL 2023 taking 27 wickets in 14 matches. He just like fizz relies on his slower ones and cutters making it hard for the batters to hit him for a boundary. His experienced death bowling makes him a vice captain contender.
