KL Rahul

KL Rahul is making a strong claim for himself. He has batted all through the line-up and is doing well both up front and as a finisher. A T20I comeback looks likely and he is making sparks

Virat Kohli

Like KL Rahul, Virat Kohli too has been in really good form and the template has been working well for him. He is enjoying Post T20I IPL and is playing with a lot of freedom. 

Delhi Capitals vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru Match Tips

Bengaluru may start favorites with their recent away record.

Match Prediction: Royal Challengers Bengaluru Will Win the Match

Mumbai are on a roll. With four handsome wins and another game at home they start favorites for certain. Adding Rohit Sharma's and Suryakumar Yadav's form makes them an even scarier prospect as they look favorites to go deep in the tournament.

Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar is absolutely killing it. He is coming in at ideal launch points and that has made it easy for him to go strong and shared early in the innings.

Rishabh Pant

Rishabh Pant's batting role has been a touch strange so far. His captaincy too has had some interesting calls and there are a lot of question marks over his ability at the moment in the line-up. 

Mumbai Indians vs Lucknow Super Giants Match Tips

Mumbai are favorites with a recent run of form making them very dominant.

Sam Billings

Sam Billings continues to enjoy his time as a freelance T20 star. He got going in the previous game and looks very good in the middle.

Usman Khan

Usman Khan has enjoyed a good period in his career. His bowling is yet to come to rhythm but its time now that he sets the stage alight. 

Lahore Qalandars vs Multan Sultans Match Tips

Lahore may be the favorite in what could be a close encounter.

Match Prediction: Lahore Qalandars Will Win the Match

Kolkata and Punjab probably played the game of the season last year, and they did the same this year. Contrastingly, last season, Punjab chased down the biggest target in IPL history and this time they defended the lowest score in IPL history. What's in store now? Both teams have good bowling attacks, with Chahal's return to form making Punjab look far better than earlier. Punjab's batting line-up has had stars, but the likes of Maxwell and Stoinis not performing is a concern to look at for them. Kolkata though are a side that look like they are lacking inspiration. Ajinkya Rahane has looked good, but the openers are not getting the runs, Andre Russell has struggled and Venkatesh Iyer too comes in with a lot of pressure on him making it a challenge for him to make an impact.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Punjab Kings: Players to Watch

Venkatesh Iyer

Venkatesh Iyer is normally a free-flowing batter but his confidence looked dented in the previous game when he was out with no intent. He is one of the pushers in the side but he has struggled to get going at times and looks very low on confidence at the moment.

Nehal Wadhera

Nehal Wadhera is coming good and showing that the Punjab local talent is here to stay. He has batted with intent and looks very solid. 

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Punjab Kings Match Tips

Punjab appear favorites with Kolkata low on confidence and struggling, unless their bowlers bail them out.

Match Prediction: Punjab Kings Will Win the Match

Two teams on the brink stand with only one task left on hand. A win in each of their remaining game gives them a safe passage to the playoffs. Everything has to go right for something like that and so far, particularly for Chennai, everything has gone all wrong from the word go. CSK are off to their worst start in the IPL and their home efforts are even worse with one win in four games. Sunrisers are yet to win in Chennai, against CSK. Bengaluru though broke their Chepauk jinx, as did Delhi which is an indicator that this season could well be one for broken jinxes.

The match-ups though look promising for SRH. While CSK has good bowling, the bowlers have not really come to the party. They are firing in the wrong directions and that should be the kick start Surnisers need with their floundering batting line-up. A good start from Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma is all that's needed to bring the season back to life and the feeble Chennai bowlers could just give them the spark. The battle though is termed as one between a side that has a poor bowling unit in SRH and a terrible batting outfit in Chennai Super Kings at the moment.

Games are on the lower scoring side at Chepauk with spin playing a part if used well. Batting first is a better  choice despite results with spinners having the ability to choke sides in the middle overs.

Pat Cummins

Pat Cummins is one of the best bowlers in the World today but T20 Cricket is a code he has not yet cracked. He has been expensive and struggled to take wickets to inspire a bowling line-up that has been pretty poor so far.

Ayush Mhatre

Ayush Mhatre had a good debut but can he continue to do the job. CSK are missing intent and a player who could play the situation in the middle and his attack would have seemed fresh but consistency is what is required. 

Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Match Tips

Both sides are on the downward spiral, but Sunrisers have the benefit of at least being true to a style that worked for them. Their approach definitely is a good one that just has not come off, and it could this time against a struggling CSK bowling line-up that helped Rohit Sharma find form a few days a go.

Match Prediction: Sunrisers Hyderabad Will Win the Match

Karachi are getting into the rhythm with their overseas stars finding form and consistency. Can they keep it up though with a Gladiators unit coming up and looking for a resurgance.

Aamer Jamal has been written as a capable all-rounder in the Pakistan ranks. His abilities are yet to be put to test though especially with the ball, given he has proved little so far.

Faheem Ashraf

Faheem Ashraf has enjoyed a good period in his career. His bowling is yet to come to rhythm but its time now that he sets the stage alight.

Virat Kohli

The chase master continues to produce masterclasses. He was really good against the Kings but now comes back home to tackle a big challenge for the Bengaluru unit.

Riyan Parag

Riyan Parag Reddy has been a missing piece in the line-up. He hasn't set the stage alight with his strike-rate and has also struggled to hang around for the finishers to come in at a good time. His bowling is yet to be used and his form is a concern. 

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Rajasthan Royals Match Tips

Royal Challengers start favorites with the Royals missing their captain and looking really poor on a few parts of their line-up.

Match Prediction: Royal Challengers Bengaluru Will Win the Match

Sunrisers were down for this scenario with their style of play. The style of go big or go home. It works, and they still look a strong unit, but it also has huge chances of going wrong as it has this season. Concerns for them though, are more with their batters just not going big. The openers getting stuck, falling for low scores and then the bowling caliber not being sufficient to defend has been the story for them so far.

Batting first and scoring big has been a strategy used often and despite results going otherways, that could be the strategy again for SRH. Mumbai though could choose to field if they win the toss given their strength in that aspect.

Suryakumar Yadav

MI's win against CSK was all about Rohit Sharma returning to form. Suryakumar Yadav though went unnoticed. Coming in at three, he looked as comfortable as ever in a role suited to him and his return to form could be the turn needed for MI to make a jump in the points table.

Nitish Kumar Reddy

Nitish Kumar Reddy has been a missing piece in the line-up. He hasn't set the stage alight with his strike-rate and has also struggled to hang around for the finishers to come in at a good time. His bowling is yet to be used and his form is a concern.
