IPL 2022: Match 1 CSK vs KKR Match Prediction

preview

Defending champion Chennai Super Kings We will play against Kolkata Knight Riders at this year’s tournament opener and will be a repeat of last year’s final. CSK was the winner at the last meeting and KKR is seeking revenge for losing in last year’s final. Both teams are slightly influenced by foreign players arriving late, and CSK will not be able to use Moeen Ali’s services in the first game. But the big news is that the legendary MS Dhoni has resigned as captain and handed over the reins to Ravindra Jadeja for the season.

The Kolkata Knight Riders, on the other hand, have some interesting options on the bench, but Pat Cummins and Aaron Finch are also slightly affected by their late arrivals. The two winners cast a spell in honor of the new skipper Shreyas Iyer, but many familiar faces are back on the team. A fierce clash between two teams with winners is expected.

Probably the top performer

Probably the best batter in the match: Shreyas Iyer

Shreyas Iyer He is currently in the shape of his life and he will return to his favorite number three position where he was most effective. Right-handed people can sometimes switch gears by playing the role of an anchor and, if desired, hit some amorous blows. The KKR Skipper is likely to make the most of this edition in his way so far and can be the winner of the franchise.

Probably the best bowler in the match: Sunil Narine

Sunil Narine did a great bowling with the recently signed CPL and BPL and was excellent in both bat and ball. Mystery Spinner has long been associated with franchises and he can definitely be the X Factor of the ball. The 33-year-old can turn the game around on his own and he will be a convenient batter to place orders. Narine was one of the reasons KKR made a comeback in the previous version of IPL.
