The experienced unit of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will take on the formidable Delhi Capitals (DC) in the first Qualifier for a direct entry into the final of the 2021 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) in Dubai on Sunday.

Capitals were the best team in the league and their 20-point finish at the group stage was an indication of their consistent performances which didn’t dip due to the COVID-19 forced break.

Similarly, CSK are now back in familiar settings of play-off rounds, something that they have done 11 out of 12 times, although losing three matches on the bounce wouldn’t have amused their all-powerful skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

DC, on the other hand, were handed a rude jolt by Kona Bharat’s last-ball six in their final group league game against Royal Challengers Bangalore. It didn’t change their pole position but did enough to shake them.

CSK, over the years, have been in final eight times and won on three occasions which speak volumes of the team’s ability to lift their game just when it’s required most. 

The two sides have faced each other twice this season, with skipper Rishabh Pant triumphing over his mentor Dhoni on both occassions.
