IPL 2021: Match 8, PBKS vs CSK Match Prediction – Who will win today’s match?

 

Review

Chennai Super Kings (CSK), after a helpless mission in 2020, lost their initial game against the Delhi Capitals (DC) in the 2021 version of the IPL Fantasy Cricket Leagues In the wake of posting 188, they couldn't endure the rage of the DC hitters, particularly Prithvi Shaw and Shikhar Dhawan.

Their subsequent game is against the Punjab Kings (PBKS) on Friday, April 16 at the notable Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The Kings, then again, began with a four-run triumph over the Rajasthan Royals (RR) at a similar setting.

Be that as it may, their bowling has a ton to be wanted as Sanju Samson's century nearly prompted their loss in daily fantasy cricket. Against the Super Kings, PBKS don't have the greatest of records using any and all means. In any case, in Mumbai, out of two matches, the Punjab-based group has beaten MS Dhoni's CSK once back in 2014.
