Just 5 days in the past (on October 4), Chennai Tremendous Kings turned the overwhelming bat-first-and-win narrative in Dubai on its head. Their uplifting victory in chase – over Kings XI Punjab – came a game later than head coach Stephen Fleming would’ve liked after he expressed the necessity to play consistently at a single venue and get used to the conditions.

His team misplaced one and won one in Dubai since that comment, and then misplaced once more in Abu Dhabi (to KKR) to get pushed back to the second half of the points table.

By their very own admission, it is taken CSK time to get their ‘muddled thinking’ right as far as combinations are concerned. They’re yet to win a game purely on the premise of their greatest power – a spin strangle – however that is right down to the absence of much grip on the surfaces for the spinners to cause havoc. There may but be room for that in the backend of the league stage, however for now, the problem will likely be to address the elephant in the room – the oft-missing intent in run-chases.

In Saturday’s game – CSK’s seventh of the season – Fleming will hope they can shake off the KKR defeat and search continuity from their KXIP performance to validate his familiarity concept.

That, although, will not come with out a fight, for RCB themselves have played 4 of their 5 matches in Dubai, with combined outcomes (two wins and two defeats). RCB have had a greater begin to the season than CSK (6 points in 5 games in comparison with CSK’s 4 points in 6 games) however they too arrive at the back of a deflating defeat, to DC, which poked holes at what they’d’ve considered water-tight strategizing – devised in the win over Rajasthan Royals.

Virat Kohli & Co. have had an opportunity to chill out and get well with a four-day break, however now enter into an eight-day period the place they play 4 matches. CSK, already within the midst of a busy phase, have three fixtures within the next seven days. Now will maybe be an excellent time for both the groups to clear cache and start afresh of their attempt to gallop towards a top-four spot.

Both Teams News:

Chennai Super Kings:

CSK have appeared extra balanced since the return of Dwayne Bravo, and discover themselves in want of an strategy change as an alternative of a personnel one. Fleming has staunchly defended the plan of sending Kedar Jadhav at two-drop, anointing him as the designated No.4. However as their last game towards KKR confirmed, there’s room for some situation-based flexibility.

Royal Challengers Bangalore:

Chris Morris is fit and ready, which implies he’ll take up Moeen Ali’s spot within the XI. Morris’s return also means there’s house for another spinner. If Adam Zampa has recovered from his stomach bug, he ought to come in for Isuru Udana. If not, Gurkeerat Singh can reclaim his spot instead of Mohammad Siraj.
