It’s the second double header of the IPL 2021 season and we have two teams with completely different results so far in this tournament. One one side is Chennai Super Kings who has 2 wins in 3 games who began IPL 2021 with a loss but have come back to hit 2 consecutive victories since then. On the other hand is Kolkata Knight Riders who won their opening game and then lost the next two in succession.
This comes a few hours after Punjab plays Sunrisers in Match 14. In Match 15, CSK plays KKR and the latter has not been very successful against Chennai in recent games. We’re playing at Wankhede where we can expect a lot of runs, so pick a lot of batting options for today’s fantasy side.

Stats that matter
- Head to head in last 5 games, Chennai leads 3-2.
- Last 4 games at Wankhede – 3 won batting second.
- Ruturaj Gaikwad scores in IPL 2021 – 5, 5, 10.
Kolkata Knight Riders
With a fifty in the opening game, Rahul Tripathi has looked really good and made starts in all three games in IPL 2021 so we’d continue to pick him today for our KOL vs CSK fantasy team. If you want another batting option today, go in for Eoin Morgan who said he hated the Chennai pitch and that showed with only 38 runs in 3 games. Now, he may let loose and make a big contribution in today’s game in Mumbai.
Shakib Al Hasan has struggled with the bat with 38 runs and has only got 2 wickets with the ball which means he may give way for Sunil Narine or the Kiwi pacer Lockie Ferguson as KKR seem to be missing a good death overs bowler too. With 4 wickets in 3 games, Pat Cummins may bowl most of his overs in the first half of the innings and the fact that he bats too make me add him to my KOL vs CSK fantasy team.
Chennai Super Kings
While he was wicketless in the first 3 games, Ravindra Jadeja got 2 wickets in the last game and he was all over the place with 4 catches as well which will do great for his confidence, so he should be in your My11Circle (Get Rs.500 FREE*) KOL vs CSK fantasy team. With 3 consecutive failures as an opener, you may think Ruturaj Gaikwad will make way for Robin Uthappa but MSD is known to show faith in players always.

When CSK played Punjab, Riley Meredith exposed Suresh Raina’s inability to play the short ball once again so he can be skipped for Ambati Rayudu in the middle order who showed a lot of positive intent in the middle order in the last game. Shardul Thakur has managed only 3 wickets in 3 games but he’s got international experience in recent months and we see him getting a lot of wickets this season.
