CSK vs PBKS Match Prediction, Playing 11, Best Picks

CSK vs PBKS Match Prediction: After being eliminated—practically, if not mathematically—from the playoffs race, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) could become party spoilers for other teams. They will next host the Punjab Kings, who are in the middle of the table, having earned 11 points in 9 games and aiming for a playoff finish.

Of their last three completed matches, PBKS have won two. Earlier this season, they beat CSK at home by 18 runs, and would take confidence from the fact that they had defeated CSK at Chepauk last year.
