IPL 2020 Match 49 - CSK vs KOL Fantasy Preview

Each team just has a few games each left in the IPL 2020 season and here we are talking about Match 49 where Chennai Super Kings is in action, a team all set to play party poopers, as they’re already out of the tournament and already caused an upset in their last outing where they beat RCB rather comprehensively. They’re playing Kolkata Knight Riders today as the action moves back to Dubai.

Kolkata has struggled with consistency in this IPL 2020 tournament and they’re one of the teams in contention of a playoffs spot, so they’ll be desperate to get a win, slightly low on confidence since they lost their last game in this campaign. The last 7 games at Dubai have seen the side chasing winning on 5 occasions. Keep reading for our complete Nostragamus (Get Rs.200 FREE) fantasy preview of the CSK vs KOL game…

Numbers

Head to head in last 5 games, Chennai leads 3-2.
In the reverse fixture, Kolkata won by 10 runs.
Rahul Tripathi – only 71 runs in his last 7 innings.

Chennai Super Kings

With the bat, let’s forget about the international stars for once. Let’s have Ruturaj Gaikwad in our team who displayed nimble footwork and great wrists in the last game, where he bounced back after 2 ducks to score his maiden IPL fifty. Apart from him, we have Ambati Rayudu in the side who has managed to score five 30+ scores in his last 7 innings and while that’s good consistency, he’ll be searching for a big score now.

Of course, we can’t leave out Faf du Plessis because he is the top scorer with 401 runs and moreover, he is the leading catcher in the tournament, picking up some brilliant catches on the boundary in almost every game so far. Another person to have in your CSK vs KOL fantasy team today is Imran Tahir who has gone wicketless in his 2 wickets this season and will be itching to make those long runs in this game!

Kolkata Knight Riders

After a good start with scores of 36 and 81, Rahul Tripathi’s season has fallen apart but if KKR go on to give him another chance, he may pay it off as he looked good in the last game before he was dismissed and his best of 81 came against this same opposition a couple of weeks back. With four 30+ scores in his last 5 games, captain Eoin Morgan is the best player in the line up and we’re waiting for him to start promoting himself up the order.

Breaking a draught of many games, Pat Cummins finally had a 3-fer but in the last game, he has back to being hit around the ground, so I’m dropping him from my Nostragamus (Get Rs.200 FREE) fantasy team while I’d like to pick Sunil Narine because he has been good with both bat and ball in the last couple of games. He was dropped for a few games and has the hunger to do well in the rest of IPL 2020 now.
