It is the battle of the summit when Chennai Superkings host highflying Kings XI Punjab in the Indian Premier League this coming Friday. Both these sides have won five encounters each and victory for either side will see them crawl up to second in the rankings behind the ever-impressive Rajasthan Royals. With so much at stake, expect blows and sixes to come in plenty during Chennai Superkings vs Kings XI Punjab live online here with our wide range of IPL live scores and IPL audio updates.

Chennai Superkings were lucky last time around to escape with a narrow win against the Delhi Daredevils. Chasing a mammoth total of 188, Chennai got off to a flier before losing their way in the middle. Even some lusty hits by Morkel one of them weighing in at 124 metres looked to be insufficient as they required a near impossible twenty-five runs of the last two overs. However, some lusty blows by Paramjeet Gony proved otherwise as the Chennai Superkings racked up their first victory after their three successive losses. However it doesn't require the study of rocket science to understand that the current Chennai outfit is a pale shadow of the one that led the IPL league table in the opening few weeks. The absence of Michael Hussey and Matthew Hayden to international commitments has left them short of options and skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni needs to fire on all cylinders if Chennai are to maintain their strong home record. Gony has been a big plus on the bowling line up and his sheer pace and aggression will prove to be a perfect ally to the spin and guile of Muralitharan as they look to rack in their Northern neighbours with a victory in the Chidabaram Stadium in Chennai this coming Saturday 10th of May 2008.

Punjab will be aiming for a five star performance to make it six wins in a row. Since their loss on Match day 2 against a rampaging Chennai outfit led by a brilliant century from Michael Hussey, the Punjab outfit have recovered well and are indeed the inform team of the tournament. Yuvraj and his gang of fearless cricketers have won their lost five matches on the trot and will be aiming to make it six with a win against the Chennai Superkings. A smart bowling performance by Piyush Chawla and Sreesanth handed them a simple seven-wicket victory against the Bangalore Royal Challengers outfit last time around. With the likes of Mahela Jayawardena, Yuvraj Singh and Shawn Marsh all clicking at the top, their batting certainly looks to be on the spot as they aim for yet another victory that will see them go level on points with Rajasthan Royals.
