Delhi Daredevils (DD) face MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in a crucial IPL 2018 match in Pune tonight. While DD would fight for survival, CSK would be keen to get back to winning ways after losing to Mumbai Indians (MI) in their last game. The Daredevils, who were struggling with Gautam Gambhir at the helm, found the elusive winning formula in their previous game when they comprehensively defeated Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at home. DD, now at the bottom of the table with just two wins out of seven games, however, need to continue their winning spree to keep themselves in the hunt for play-offs.

CSK have lost Deepak Chahar, who did a good job while opening the bowling, for two weeks with a pulled hamstring. That reduces the fast bowling options as the only other recognised Indian pacer is Shardul Thakur.

The overseas options are Lungi Ngidi, Mark Wood and David Willey.

On the other hand, DD would hope that their skipper Shreyas Iyer continues to lead from the front as he did with a match-winning 93 against KKR.

Besides Iyer, other batsmen like opener Prithvi Shaw, Rishabh Pant and all-rounders Glenn Maxwell and Colin Munro too will have to play their part to perfection.
