TEAM NEWS:

CSK pacer Lungi Ngidi is now available for selection after completing 7-day quarantine. Opener Ruturaj Gaikwad's form is of little concern to the team, but he has been defended by coach Stephen Fleming. In such a situation, Robin Uthappa may have to sit outside now. Chennai captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni does not make changes in the playing XI. In such a situation, the possibility of change in today's match is quite low.

PITCH REPORT:

Wankhede's pitch will be suitable for batsmen. It was also very easy to bat here in the match between Delhi and Punjab. In such a situation, we can witness a high scoring match here; however, evening means dew will play a big role and the team that wins the toss should decide to bowl first.
