Chennai Super Kings faced a setback as their bowler Mustafizzur Rehman had to leave for Bangladesh to arrange visas for the T20 World Cup, scheduled shortly after the IPL. Rehman’s absence provided opportunities for other players like Mukesh Chaudhury or Shardul Thakur. CSK might also consider bringing in Maheesh Theekshana or Moeen Ali.
Fans anticipated MS Dhoni playing a more prominent role in the batting lineup after his impressive performance against Delhi Capitals.
While Sunrisers Hyderabad’s batting seemed stable, their bowling department faced challenges, especially in conceding too many runs. Skipper Pat Cummins performed consistently, but other bowlers like Bhuvaneshwar Kumar and Jaydev Undakat struggled. T Natrajan might replace Jaydev Unadkat, and Washington Sundar could be considered as an impact player depending on the match situation.
