Hyderabad vs Chennai Preview: Dream Prediction, Playing 11, Pitch Report, Top Fantasy Picks
Chennai are placed comfortably at the top of the points table and can extend their lead against Hyderabad in this match. Ruturaj Gaikwad & Faf du Plessis have been impeccable at the top with great batting support from Ravi Jadeja.
Hyderabad are all but eliminated, having won only 2 games out of 10 in the Indian T20 League. Without David Warner in the side, Jason Roy has stepped up in place. However, due to a lack of wickets & batting power, Hyderabad will only look for a consolation win.
