CSK vs PBKS Dream11 Team - IPL 2021 | 7 Oct

It’s been a good season for Chennai Super Kings and while they were enjoying an unbeaten run in IPL 2021 in UAE, it came to an end and are now sitting at two straight losses. They’re second on the IPL 2021 points table and will bring back their best game here in the first game of today’s double header, because there’s a spot in the top two for the taking. Remember, CSK hasn’t lost 3 consecutive games too many times in the IPL.

They’re playing Match 53 of IPL 2021 where they’re up against another one of the few teams who are fighting for qualification to the IPL 2021 playoffs. We’re talking about Punjab Kings and in this battle of the kings, all signs points towards a CSK victory. May 2019 was the last time Punjab beat CSK in an IPL match.

Stats that matter

Head to head in last 5 games, Chennai leads 4-1.
Last 13 games in IPL 2021 – 12 won batting second.

Chennai Super Kings

Firstly, Sam Curran is out with an injury which will cause him to miss the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2021 as well, which means Dwayne Bravo will continue to keep his place. In the last game, he barely had any contribution apart from 2 overs at the death and we’re picking him if he makes the CSK vs PBKS playing 11. After getting just one wicket in his last 2 outings in IPL 2021, Josh Hazlewood may get the boot, replaced by leg-spinner Imran Tahir.

With the bat, I was super pleased to see Robin Uthappa back in the playing eleven and if he’s given another go ahead of Suresh Raina, I’m picking him today in my CSK vs PBKS Dream11 team for sure. The opening pair of Faf du Plessis and Ruturaj Gaikwad are both making my team while I may want to have Ambati Rayudu in my team too, as he’s been giving them an impetus in nearly every game in IPL 2021 so far.

Punjab Kings

Chris Gayle is no long part of the squad which means Aiden Markram has a bigger role to play and we saw him playing that role in the last loss to RCB, so he’s being picked in our My11Circle (Get Rs.500 FREE*) CSK vs PBKS fantasy team today again. With continuous collapses after a good stand at the top, this team needs a good head in the middle order and that can be provided by Moises Henriques who got 12* in his first game along with 3/12 with the ball.

Among the Indian stars, Arshdeep Singh had a good start to IPL 2021 in UAE but he’s had two wicketless games in the last 3 outings this season and I’d rather have someone like Ravi Bishnoi in my team who has been growing in confidence since his appearance in the U-19 World Cup last year. The fittest of the pacers will have to be Mohammed Shami and while he bowled poorly in the last game, he’s a must pick, always!
