Chennai Superkings come into this clash on the back of a sad batting performance
against Rajasthan Royals outfit. A rampaging Sohail Tanvir derailed the entire
batting line up as they collapsed to an inexplicable score of 109. Tanvir skittled
through the top order with stunning figures of 6/14 and a much better show will
be expected from Mahendra Singh Dhoni and troops when they come up against the
Deccan Chargers this time around. The Chennai outfit are suffering from the
absence of Australian super duo of Matthew Hayden and Adam Gilcrhist and will
be hoping for a much better performance from ex- New Zealand skipper Stephen
Fleming. Suresh Raina and Mahendra Singh Dhoni are the other two batting options
for the Chennai outfit and they will be expected to come good this time around.
Chennai have lost their last two clashes against Rajasthan Royals and Delhi
Daredevils which has put a spot of blemish on their so far undiluted track record.
Muttiah Muralitharan is yet to fire on all cylinders for the Chennai outfit
and given the current run of form, the off spinner is due a big performance
and he will be hoping to produce it against a star studded Deccan Chargers outfit
this time around.
Deccan Chargers on the other hand have been a subject of parody
and confusion as they lie bottom with just a solitary point to show for their
efforts. Despite having the best batting line up around consisting of the likes
of Shahid Afridi, VVS Laxman, Gibbs and Rohit Sharma, they have generally struggled
for runs as was evident in their unfortunate draw against the Bangalore Royal
Challengers last time around. Chasing a mearge total of 157, the Deccan Chargers
fell three short on a placid pitch in Bangalore and much needs to be improved
upon in their ranks this time around. However, their bowling has improved in
recent matches with the likes of Nuwan Zoysa and Chaminda Vaas
improving match by match as was evident by their strong performance against
Bangalore last time around. Adam Gilcrhist has been in quiet form all summer
except for a smashing hundred against Mumbai and the former Aussie great will
be hoping to turn back the gears with a smashing performance against the Chennai
Superkings this coming Tuesday 6th of May 2008 at the Chidambaram Stadium in
Chennai.
