IPL 2022 #CSKvKKR Predicted Playing 11 for Tonight's Game :

IPL 2022 is all set to start with CSK taking on against KKR at Wankhede tonight. 🔥💥

#IPL #CSKvsKKR

Deepak Chahar started practice in nets after injury.

UPDATE : Suryakaumar Yadav set to join MI team in evening today.

AB De Villiers - "Ravindra Jadeja is a class player, he's got the experience and everything you need from a captain. I'm not surprised with MS Dhoni's move (step down as Captain), I'm actually happy. He carried that captaincy burden for so long, it's a perfect move".

Ab De Villiers - "I'll be missing the IPL and my friends at the RCB. I had a great time in the IPL and with RCB family for 11 years. I'll be returning to India soon, but right now I've just decided to spend a year with my family"

Suresh Raina - "CSK is our team and we are Yellove forever."

Ajinkya Rahane making his debut for Kolkata Knight Riders tonight.

Team NEWS : Sam Billings, Andre Russell & Sunil Narine are the 3 foreign players playing for KKR tonight.

Analysis: Winning the toss is a huge factor here & it's certainly going to help KKR keeping dew factor in mind.
CSK will look to put high score on board with shorter boundaries and keeping dew in mind.
Happy for Sheldon Jackson as he in starting 11 and then Tushar (swing) in place of Deepak seems fair replacement here.

All set for the game! 👍

Ambati Rayudu run-out is the biggest wicket for KKR and quite a big loss for CSK, I feel.

NEWS : Suryakumar Yadav joined MI after completing his rehabilitation at NCA.

CSK - 131/5 (20)

50* for MS Dhoni in first game of IPL 2022! Excellent bowling effort from entire KKR bowlers to restrict CSK on this low total. Mahi & Jadeja 70* run partnership has given some chance to CSK. Interesting chase ahead...🔥

Shreyas Iyer & KKR started their IPL 2022 campaign with an easy win against CSK. 💥
