Chennai Super Kings are one of the most solid teams, especially at home venue, and their recent win against SRH by 78 runs, a strong batting unit, boosted their confidence even more.
However, Punjab Kings are also coming after setting the highest successful run-chase record in their last game, while they also managed to defeat CSK during their previous encounter at Chepauk, which goes in PBKS favour.
