Bengaluru, April 21: After registering two convincing wins, the Chennai Kings will now take on the Kolkata Knight Riders at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
Match no. 15 of the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will see struggling Knight Riders face a rejuvenated Super Kings in the second match of Wednesday’s double-header.
The two teams will enter the match with completely different mindsets. While MS Dhoni-led Super Kings bounced back on their opening day loss with two comfortable wins, the Eoin Morgan-led Knights fell to two consecutive losses after their opening day victory.
Dhoni-led Chennai, who endured their worst season last year, are looking like their usual dominating self once again. Facing the CSK side will be a daunting task for the Morgan-led Knight Riders.
The Knights, will quickly need to regroup as a defeat on Wednesday, would see them lose three on the trot. Though the season is at its early stages, the Kolkata side will need to get their act back on the road with a win over Chennai.
While the Chennai side have played all their matches this season at the Wankhede, it will be the Knight Riders first match in Mumbai this season. With two former-champions clashing in Mumbai, the IPL encounter promises to be a thrilling one.
