The Chennai Super Kings and the Royal Challengers Bangalore, the top two teams in the IPL standings, face off in a clash of heavyweights at the Wankhede Stadium in the first match of the day. While the Super Kings have completed a hat-trick of wins in four matches, the Royal Challengers are yet to suffer a defeat. If they extend their unbeaten run, it will be the first instance of a franchise winning their first five games since the Rajasthan Royals in 2015.

For the Super Kings, the question will be whether to persist with Lungi Ngidi or bring death-over specialist Dwayne Bravo back after he was rested for their last match against the Kolkata Knight Riders. Jason Behrendorff is still not available for selection. Meanwhile, Virat Kohli would be cautious in his death-overs strategy against the team that has scored more than 100 runs in the last 10 overs in their last three matches and boasts of batting depth.
