- KL Rahul: A key figure at the top, providing solidity and aggression. He is expected to play big innings as he handles spin smoothly.
- Mitchell Starc: Leading DC’s pace attack and posing a significant threat in powerplay overs. He scalped 8 wickets in the 2 matches so far.
Momentum Shifters
- Middle Overs Spin Performance (≥3 wickets): Provides a +25% win probability for the bowling team.
- Ruturaj Gaikwad vs. Kuldeep Yadav: Ruturaj’s aggressive play (>20 runs conceded by Kuldeep) can swing the match +19% in CSK’s favor.

Match Prediction
Chennai Super Kings possess a significant advantage at Chepauk, leveraging their spin attack and strategic prowess to dominate visiting teams. However, Delhi Capitals’ strategic depth and strong recent form challenge CSK’s home stronghold. The match is expected to be determined by spin battles and how well each team negotiates the middle overs.
While CSK’s historical dominance and potential home advantage make them favorites, DC’s balance and skilled bowling attack could prove to be game-changers if CSK falter in execution. Expect a fiercely contested match where execution under pressure will decide the victor.
