Background
CSK Vs PBKS: Hello and welcome to the live coverage of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Match 49 between Chennai Super Kings and Punjab Kings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The fixture is of immense importance for both the sides, as they are aiming to lock their position in the Top 4 of IPL 2024.
CSK are in a much more comfortable position than PBKS in terms of qualification scenario, as the Ruturaj Gaikwad's side are currently 4th in the table with 10 points in their 9 games, which includes 5 wins and 4 losses, at a Net Run Rate (NRR) of +0.810, and the reason for such a boost in their NRR is their latest victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad, which was a massive 78-run win at home.
PBKS, on the other hand, are on the verge of elimination, as every match for them is now a do-or-die fixture. The Sam Curran-led side can attain maximum 16 points in their IPL 2024 campaign, as the side have won 3 and lost 6 of their 9 matches so far, with an NRR of -0.187. However, they will be extremely hopeful because they are coming off a historic win against Kolkata Knight Riders, where they chased down a world record target of 261.
