Chennai Super Kings are favorites to win
Delhi Capitals will bid to maintain their pace at the top of the 2020 Indian Premier League table when they take on Chennai Super Kings. The match will take place at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on October 17 and the live action starts at 19:30 local time.
Delhi won comfortably when these sides last met, part of their six wins in eight matches so far. The most recent of those came against Rajasthan Royals last time out, as Shikhar Dhawan hit 57 in a total of 161/7 as they won by 13 runs. That result lifted the Capitals back to the top of the IPL 2020 table.
Chennai Super Kings have been unable to capture their normal form so far, but a 20-run win against Sunrisers Hyderabad last time out got them back on track at least. Shane Watson top-scored with 42 but it was some mean bowling from Sam Curran and Dwayne Bravo’s wickets that earned the Super Kings a key win.

With Rishabh Pant out injured, Alex Carey continued behind the stumps last time out and Ajinkya Rahane was at number three. The latter’s sluggish innings could put his place in jeopardy, however.
Delhi got back to winning ways last time out, as they bounced back from a five-wicket defeat to Mumbai Indians by beating Rajasthan Royals. Shikhar Dhawan hit a half-century for the second consecutive match and Shreyas Iyer posted 53 in a total of 161/7, before Rajasthan Royals were restricted to 148/8 in reply.

Sam Curran has been promoted up the batting order to inject some pace and Dwayne Bravo has returned to the team to make a wicket-taking impact. A successful experiment means they could be unchanged this time out.
Chennai Super Kings earned just their third win of the tournament last time out as they look to revive their season. After back-to-back defeats, a few changes to the line-up and batting order saw them hit 167/6 last time out. Some economical bowling in reply limited Sunrisers to 147/8.
Chennai Super Kings have won just twice so far and only once since defeating Mumbai Indians in the opening game. Faf du Plessis (87*) and Shane Watson (83*) shared an unbroken opening partnership in the most recent win, against Kings XI Punjab, to guide the Super Kings to a ten-wicket win but they could not back up a good bowling performance against Kolkata Knight Riders last time out as they lost by ten runs.

Chennai Super Kings won three matches in a row against Delhi Capitals last season, but Delhi dominated when they met last month in IPL 2020. Prithvi Shaw hit 64 in a total of 175/3 for the Capitals, before Kagiso Rabada claimed 3-26 to limit Chennai to 131/7. Here are the results of their last five matches:
