Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium - Hyderabad, India
SRH vs CSK Head to Head
Chennai Super Kings won all four matches against Sunrisers Hyderabad last season, including the first play-off and the final, and have now claimed nine wins in 11 games against them in total. It gives the Super Kings a win rate of 81.81% in this fixture – their best record against any IPL team.
Their first match, in Hyderabad, last season saw the Super Kings post 182/3 thanks to Suresh Raina (54*) and Ambati Rayudu (79) before they held on for a four-run win despite Kane Williamson’s 84 – Deepak Chahar claiming 3-15 and bowling 17 dot balls.
Rayudu was the star again in the second league game, scoring an unbeaten century as Chennai chased 180 to win by eight wickets, before Faf du Plessis’s 67* led them to a two-wicket win in the first play-off, chasing 140.
In the final, Sunrisers Hyderabad posted 178/6 but Shane Watson hit an unbeaten 117 from 57 balls in reply to lead them to an eight-wicket win with nine balls remaining.
SRH vs CSK Betting Odds
Sunrisers Hyderabad have lost their last three matches, while Chennai have won four in a row and seven out of eight in total this season. The Super Kings have also won each of their last four matches against Hyderabad, and nine from 11 overall, so it is little surprise to see they are favourites to win. You can back the Super Kings at 1.80 to win with Bet365, Betway and Betrally.
SRH Betway Odds
- SRH to Win the Match: Sunrisers Hyderabad are also, unsurprisingly, outsiders with Betway at 1.95 to win.
- SRH Top Batsman: David Warner’s batting form continued last time out even if his team-mates struggled. The Australian is 1.83 to score over 26.5 runs again, while you can get the same price on Jonny Bairstow scoring over 23.5. Warner is 2.80 to be their top batsman, while Bairstow is 3.50 and Kane Williamson can be backed at 4.33.
- SRH Top Bowler: Rashid Khan is 3.00 to be their top bowler, meanwhile, and Sandeep Sharma and Bhuvenshwar Kumar are both 3.75. Khaleel Ahmed took that honour last time out, and he is 4.33 to do so again.
CSK Betway Odds
- CSK to Win the Match: Like Bet365, Betway are offering 1.80 on in-form Chennai Super Kings to beat Sunrisers Hyderabad for the fifth consecutive game.
- CSK Top Batsman: Faf du Plessis is 3.50 to be their top batsman, meanwhile, while Suresh Raina is 4.00 and Shane Watson is 4.33. Ambati Rayudu can be backed at 5.00 and MS Dhoni at 8.50.
- CSK Top Bowler: Tahir is 3.00 to be Chennai’s top bowler again, while Shardul Thakur is 3.75 and Deepak Chahar is 4.00.
- Imran Tahir & Rashid Khan both to take a wicket: With Imran Tahir in form last time out, you can get 2.00 with #betyourway on Tahir and Sunrisers’ Rashid Khan both taking a wicket in the match.
SRH Bet365 Odds
- SRH to Win the Match: Sunrisers Hyderabad are out of form and outsiders to beat table-topping defending champions Chennai Super Kings at 2.00 with Bet365.
- SRH Top Batsman: If they are to stand any chance of upsetting those odds, David Warner and Jonny Bairstow will need to continue their current good form – very few others have scored runs for Hyderabad this season. Warner is 3.00 to be their top batsman and Bairstow is 3.75. Fit-again Kane Williamson is 5.00.
- SRH Highest Opening Partnership: Sunrisers Hyderabad are also 1.90 to post the highest opening partnership as a result of Warner and Bairstow’s form.
- SRH Top Bowler: With the ball, Rashid Khan is 3.50 to be their top bowler, but Sandeep Sharma is actually their top wicket-taker so far. He is 5.00 to be their top bowler, while Khaleel Ahmed is 5.00 after impressing in his first start last time out. Bhuvneshwar Kumar is 4.50.

- CSK Top Bowler: Imran Tahir was their bowling star last time out and he is 3.50 to be their top bowler but there has been no shortage of excellent bowling performances for the Super Kings so far. Deepak Chahar is 5.50 to be top bowler, while Shardul Thakur and Ravindra Jadeja are both 5.00.

SRH vs CSK Prediction
Chennai Super Kings’ superb form has continued in this season’s Indian Premier League and they come up against a Sunrisers’ team who have struggled of late with three consecutive defeats. With the lower order not ticking for Hyderabad, and with Chennai’s bowlers in superb form, the Super Kings can continue their excellent record in this fixture.
