If Mahendra Singh Dhoni gets a chance to bat for Chennai Super Kings in their match against Lucknow Super Giants tonight, the roar from the full house at the Ekana Stadium will be heard miles away. Heavy rains had last year deprived the local fans of the opportunity to see MSD bat, so the spectators will have their fingers crossed to finally see Thala come out and hit a couple of sixes as he had done in the previous match against Mumbai Indians at Mumbai. That’s on the wish list of the cricket enthusiasts. But for the teams, nothing but a win would be on their agenda.
IPL-17 at halfway stage
As the IPL reaches the halfway stage, things are getting desperate for the teams and the margin of error is getting smaller. So close the teams are on the points table, a win props up their chances and a defeat feels like a big setback. LSG have a tough job on hand as they have lost their last two games, while CSK are coming here with a huge morale-boosting win over Mumbai Indians. The home team is in a bit of disarray as both their batting and bowling have not been up to the mark lately. They have been battling injuries, especially to their promising fast bowler Mayank Yadav, while many of the batters are still looking for their wanted form. Mayank has been bowling in the nets, thus there is a good chance that he could make a comeback in this important game.
