Hosts Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will lock horns against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in Chennai. Chennai will look to bounce back and will try to take revenge and come to winning ways. CSK’s batting coach Mike Hussey would be hoping that Rachin Ravindra plays to his potential after his string of low scores in the tourney.
When these two teams faced each other in the last match Lucknow had the upper hand against them. They beat Chennai by 8 wickets and secured a comfortable win against them. On April 23 both teams will face each other once again but this time they are in Anbuden Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium
IPL 2024: Mike Hussey alerts CSK ahead of revenge battle
Since Chennai is in good form under the new skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad won 4 games till now and is in 4th position in the points table. Today they will face Lucknow and will try to bounce back and will try to commit fewer mistakes which did in the last match. Aussie player turned batting coach Mike Hussey has shed light on the future games of CSK which may be dangerous or may not.
Despite dominating at home some stones have been left unturned like in fielding or rotating the bowlers, etc. Keep in mind that they played their last match against Lucknow only so the tactics or planning would be aware and so need to be more alert. Just for a precaution, he alerted but needed to consider it. “We have had a good close look at them in their home conditions,” the Australian said.
“I guess we don’t exactly know what they are going to do but I guess we know their style of play, we know when their players are going to come out to bowl and when they are going to come out to bat, so I guess that makes it a little bit easier when you have played them so close,” the Chennai side’s batting coach said.
We all know that Chennai’s pitch has very slow wicket spinners who have the upper hand over pacers so both teams will be prepared knowing the situation. KL Rahul who was in red-hot form in the last match will try to keep his momentum as it is and maybe we can see MS Dhoni’s vintage carnage cameo again just like witnessed in the last match at Lucknow.
