The Chennai Super Kings go against the Mumbai Indians in the first game of phase two. The Indian Premier League will resume today at 7.30 PM live from Dubai International Stadium. This will be a strong chance for the MS Dhoni led to mark their comeback in the tournament. The team was at the bottom of the points table at one point, now they are back at the top! Some of the players to watch out for in the IPL include: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ambati Rayudu and Shardul Thakur. This trio of players can change the game for the CSK squad!

Players to watch out for:

To begin with is, Ambati Rayudu: He has the ability to go well if he has a controlled innings to get comfortable. His flurry of boundaries and sixes in the shorter format is much appreciated. A firm determination and a slower calculated start will allow him some space to settle. As a result, he is much in form! Firstly, he is required to start with patience. Secondly, his calm and composed playing will help him get the runs. As a result, a composed innings goes a long way for Rayudu.

Ruturaj Gaikwad: This youngster is a box full of surprises. He is able to get the crucial runs for the team at any stage of the game. Aiming for the boundaries and sixes is commendable! Gaikwad is a free-stroking opener whose game revolves around a fluid technique. He moves the bat with much ease and has the ability to confuse the opponent!

Lastly, Shardul Thakur: He is one such player who has shown his calm and composed style with the bat and ball in crucial times. Whether it is for wickets or scoring runs, MS Dhoni’s squad can rely on him for a match- changing moment! It will be interesting to see how his form in the IPL goes after a terrific opportunity in the Indian squad!

Best of luck to the Chennai Super Kings for the Indian Premier League!
