Chennai Super Kings won the toss and chose to bat. Sam Curran and Faf du Plessis came out as openers for CSK. But Curran was dismissed in the third delivery of the first over. However, Watson and du Plessis stitched an 87-run partnership to keep CSK in the loop. Du Plessis scored the most runs (58 runs off 47 balls) for CSK tonight. After their dismissal, Rayudu and Jadeja's quick 50-run partnership powered CSK to 179 runs.&nbsp;

Delhi Capitals started off the chase in a similar fashion as Prithvi Shaw was out in the second ball itself. Rahane also got out quickly. However, the partnership between Shreyas Iyer and Dhawan kept Delhi in the game. Dhawan was dropped thrice by CSK fielders and those misfields cost Chennai the match as the opener went on to smash an unbeaten century. However, the equation in the final over was still tight as DC needed 17 runs in the 20th over. Axar Patel's three sixes in the final over did not let Dhawan's knock go in vain. Delhi won the match with a ball to spare.&nbsp;

With this win, Delhi Capitals go on top of the IPL table. Shikhar Dhawan was adjudged the Player of the Match for his knock (101 runs off 58 balls).&nbsp;

Also read: IPL 2020, RR vs RCB Preview: Battle for playoffs gains pace as Royals take on Kohli and Co. Delhi Capitals have had a dream start in this IPL they have won six games out of eight and sit comfortably on the second spot (behind Mumbai Indians). In the previous encounter against CSK, Capitals won the match by 44 runs. This is their chance to make it 2-0 this season. Chennai Super Kings, on the other hand, had a terrible start to this year's IPL but have managed to win some crucial games to keep them in the tournament. CSK are currently sixth and will be looking to capitalise on the recent win against Sunrisers. Shaw and Dhawan have been in good form for DC and will be looking forward to giving a good start to Delhi with the bat. Kagiso Rabada has been lethal with his ball and is the current purple cap holder. Sam Curran for the Chennai Super Kings has been decent with both bat and the ball and will be looking to smash some balls over the fence in Sharjah tonight. MS Dhoni's vintage captaincy was witnessed in the previous match and will be seen at Sharjah too. Watson, Du Plessis and Rayudu will be dangerous to ball to on a ground like Sharjah. Deepak Chahar has dismissed Prithvi Shaw four times in five innings. The only time he didn't manage to do so came earlier in the season when Shaw was Man of the Match. Probable XI Delhi Capitals: Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shaw, Rishabh Pant, Shreyas Iyer, Marcus Stoinis, Alex Carey, Axar Patel, Kagiso Rabada, R Ashwin, Anrich Nortje, Tushar Deshpande Chennai Super Kings: Faf du Plessis, Sam Curran, Shane Watson, Ambati Rayudu, MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, Dwayne Bravo, Kedar Jadhav/Piyush Chawla, Deepak Chahar, Shardul Thakur, Karn Sharma

KKR spinner Sunil Narine was reported for illegal bowling action during his match against KXIP. This action was reported by the on-field umpires. Narine has gone to Carl Crowe to help rework his action for the remaining games of the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

KKR spinner Sunil Narine was reported for illegal bowling action during his match against KXIP. This action was reported by the on-field umpires. Narine has gone to Carl Crowe to help rework his action for the remaining games of the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Narine went to the Englishman when he was called for a suspect action in 2014. According to sources close to ANI, the Spinner has been sweating it out in the nets to ensure his return to the bowling crease at the earliest. "Crowe was the man Narine went to after being called for suspect action back in 2014-2015 and with him in the unit, it was but obvious that the two would try to correct his action to ensure that the spinner can return to bowling after being called in the game against Kings XI Punjab. They have been working overtime be it at the nets or while analysing angles with data analysts," the source explained. Crowe is Narine's sole option as the West Indian cannot go for a biomechanical analysis of his action at the ICC and BCCI accredited Sri Ramachandra Arthroscopy and Sports Sciences Centre (SRASSC) in Chennai as that would mean fresh quarantine period applying and would ultimately see Narine missing the remaining tournament. The spinner already sat out the game against Royal Challengers Bangalore in Sharjah on Monday. IPL released a statement when the on-field umpires reported the action. This statement read: The report was made by the on-field umpires according to the IPL’s Suspected Illegal Bowling Action Policy. Narine will be placed on the warning list and is permitted to continue to bowl in the tournament. Another report will result in Narine being suspended from bowling in the IPL 2020 until cleared by the BCCI Suspect Bowling Action Committee." To which KKR stated its own: "This came as a surprise to the franchise and Narine, considering he has played over 115 games in the IPL since 2012 and as many as 68 games since 2015, when he was last reported during the IPL season for a suspect action before being subsequently cleared completely by SRASSC, an ICC accredited facility." (Input from ANI)

However, De Villiers offered to come out of retirement to help the team before the 2019 World Cup. But the SA management including captain du Plessis and head coach Ottis Gibson had turned it down because they felt it would be unfair on those who had worked hard to make it to SA's World Cup squad.

Also read: IPL 2020: KKR's Sunil Narine reported for suspected illegal bowling action during match against KXIP Royal Challengers have had a great IPL season after their skipper Virat Kohli has found his form in the tournament. Royal Challengers have one of the best bowling units in this year's Indian Premier League. However, forms of Finch and AB de Villiers has seen a drop. But they can make a comeback on a ground like Sharjah (it is a high-scoring venue). Yuzvendra Chahal has been in sublime form, he will play a crucial role. Shivam Dube and Washington Sundar are both hard-hitters and will be crucial with the bat. Kolkata, on the other hand, have been lucky in the past two matches against CSK and KXIP as they pulled the match in their favour at the very last moment. Skipper Dinesh Karthik has been in good touch with the bat and his captaincy during crucial moments has earned him a lot of praise recently. Narine has been good with the ball, but not with the bat. But short boundaries in Sharjah might offer the West Indian a chance to get back in good touch. Russell's availability is in doubt after being struck with an injury during KXIP match. The two teams have faced each other 24 times in the IPL so far, with KKR holding a 14-10 head-to-head win/loss record over RCB. Probable XI RCB: Devdutt Padikkal, Aaron Finch, Virat Kohli (c), AB de Villiers (wk), Shivam Dube, Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Chris Morris, Washington Sundar, Isuru Udana, Navdeep Saini, Yuzvendra Chahal KKR: Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi, Nitish Rana, Eoin Morgan, Dinesh Karthik (c&wk), Andre Russell/Tom Banton, Sunil Narine, Pat Cummins, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Prasidh Krishna, Varun Chakravarthy

Kolkata Knight Riders continued their winning run as they defeated Kings XI Punjab by 2 runs in what was a proper humdinger in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020.

KKR used similar tactics which they applied against Chennai Super Kings to win the match similarly. Dinesh Karthik smartly used Varun Chakravarthy and Sunil Narine to choke the KXIP batters in the second half of the chase after openers Mayank Agarwal and KL Rahul stitched a 115-run stand.

While KXIP looked comfortable in their chase, KKR bowled brilliantly after the 10th over to get quick dismissals of Agarwal, Nicholas Pooran and Simran Singh to pile pressure on KXIP. KL Rahul, who was looking in fine touch lost his wicket in the 19th over.&nbsp;

While Glenn Maxwell smashed a couple of boundaries in the final over off Sunil Narine, KXIP fell short of two runs to register their fifth defeat of IPL 2020 in six matches.&nbsp;

Glen Maxwell is being dubbed as the most expensive flop in this year's Indian Premier League. The Aussie all-rounder has failed to impress the crowd with both bat and ball.&nbsp;

Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag lashed out at the Aussie and even questioned the franchises wanting the player.&nbsp;

In an interview with Cricbuzz, Sehwag said: "Don’t know what sort of a platform Glenn Maxwell needs to explode. He came in early (against Sunrisers Hyderabad) after Punjab lost two batsmen quickly. A lot of overs were left this time, but he failed. Earlier, he didn’t have pressure (batting in the death overs in previous matches), yet he got out without performing."

"I can’t quite understand his mindset because it’s been the same story every year. He gets sold in the auction for a hefty price but the result remains the same. Yet, people (franchises) run after him. This is something I don’t understand. In the next auction, I think his price will drop from 10 crores to somewhere around Rs. 1-2 crores which is what it should be. It has to be kept in mind that he scored his last half-century in 2016."

Maxwell has had a disastrous season. He scored 1, 5, 13, 11, 11* and 7 in last six matches. Former England captain Kevin Pietersen has called for his axing from the Playing XI, while ex-India left-arm Spinner Pragyan Ojha feels Gayle will replace him in the next match.

Delhi Capitals is set to take on Rajasthan Royals in Match 23 of IPL 2020 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Friday. IN PICS: IPL 2020: High scoring thriller between Kings XI Punjab and Rajasthan Royals in pictures Delhi Capitals has been the most successful team in this year's Indian Premier League. They have won four games of five matches. Their only loss was to Sunrisers Hyderabad. Shreyas and Co. will be looking forward to keeping the momentum and top the table after beating the Royals. Sharjah has been a high scoring venue due to its shorter boundaries. They have a deep batting and bowling lineup. Hard-hitters like Prithvi Shaw, Shikhar Dhawan, Rishabh Pant and Marcus Stoinis will provide good pace for the team. Bowlers have not been so successful in Sharjah, however, current purple cap holder Kagiso Rabada will trouble the Rajasthan batsmen. Deflated Rajasthan started their campaign in style by securing mammoth victories against Chennai and Punjab. However, they saw a drastic drop in form as they went on to lose three consecutive matches. However, Sharjah has been lucky for the Royals. Their star all-rounder Ben Stokes will miss this match and join them in next. Steve Smith and Sanju Samson have hit a rough patch and have scored runs for the team. It could be the match where they redeem themselves. Rajasthan Royals are second last on the points table. The two teams have faced each other 20 times in the IPL so far, with Rajasthan holding an 11-9 head-to-head win/loss record over Delhi. Probable XI Delhi Capitals: Prithvi Shaw, Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer (c), Rishabh Pant (wk), Shimron Hetmyer, Marcus Stoinis, Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Harshal Patel, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje Rajasthan Royals: Jos Buttler (wk), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Steven Smith (c), Sanju Samson, Mahipal Lomror, Rahul Tewatia, Jofra Archer, Tom Curran, Shreyas Gopal, Ankit Rajpoot, Kartik Tyagi

Rohit Sharma's Mumbai Indians is set to lock horns with Steve Smith's Rajasthan Royals in the 20th match of IPL 2020 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday. Rajasthan Royals had a great start to this year's tournament they won the first two matches, however, the form dropped and they lost two consecutive matches. They currently stand on fifth position in the points table. Skipper Steve Smith will be desperate to get back to winning ways. Sanju Samson and Jos Buttler might return to their forms today. However, the big talking point will be the return of Ben Stokes. England's star-allrounder returned from New Zealand to join the Royals. Jofra Archer will be crucial for Royals today as Abu Dhabi provides swing to pacerhead. Mumbai Indians have won two consecutive matches now and will hope to keep up the momentum. Mumbai stand on second IPL points table. Rohit Sharma has been out of form lately and this could be the match where he could get his form back. Bumrah and Pattinson are in good form and will be looking to trouble Rajasthan batsmen. Probable XI: Mumbai Indians: Rohit Sharma (c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan, Kieron Pollard, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, James Pattinson, Rahul Chahar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah Rajasthan Royals: Jos Buttler (wk), Yashasvi Jaiswal/Robin Uthappa, Sanju Samson, Steve Smith (c), Riyan Parag. Mahipal Lomror, Tom Curran, Rahul Tewatia, Jofra Archer, Shreyas Gopal, Jaydev Unadkat/Varun Aaron The match will be played in Abu Dhabi which has been a low scoring venue, so even 170+ score will be defendable.

Virat Kohli's Royal Challengers Bangalore will take on Shreyas Iyer's Delhi Capitals in the 19th match of IPL 2020 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai on Monday. Also read: IPL 2020: Watson, Du Plessis lead Chennai to 10-wicket win against KXIP Both teams have won three matches and lost one in this years Indian Premier League. Both RCB and Capitals won the match that led into super over. RCB skipper Virat Kohli returned to top form in the last match against the Sunrisers, and he will be the most dangerous batsmen in a ground like Dubai. Padikkal has notched up three half-centuries in last four match, his innings will also be crucial for the Challengers. AB de Villiers has been good with the bat and could be explosive for the RCB to pose or chase a good total. Isuru Udana, Navdeep Saini and Yuzvendra Chahal have been on top form with the ball and could restrict the capitals to a modest total. Probable XI: Devdutt Padikkal, Aaron Finch, Virat Kohli (c), AB de Villiers (wk), Shivam Dube, Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Isuru Udana, Washington Sundar, Adam Zampa/Dale Steyn, Navdeep Saini, Yuzvendra Chahal Delhi Capitals have been a complete team in this year's Indian Premier League. From Iyer's brave innings to Rabada's deadly pace bowling, the team has proven to be dangerous. R Ashwin on the other hand could play a crucial role. Padikkal has not been tested against an off-spinner at the start of his innings yet, and R Ashwin has knocked him over twice in the Syed Mushtaq Ali and Vijay Hazare Trophy finals. Amit Mishra will be a useful option for the Delhi Capitals, and they might drop Axar Patel. Probable XI: Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shaw/Ajinkya Rahane, Shreyas Iyer (c), Rishabh Pant (wk), Shimron Hetmyer, Marcus Stoinis, Ravichandran Ashwin, Amit Mishra, Harshal Patel, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje The Capitals have won just 8 of their 23 meetings against RCB. Two of those wins came in the last season where RCB had a disastrous campaign.
