Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders are taking on each other in 2021 final. CSK have beaten KKR twice heading into this final. This is CSK’s ninth IPL final while third for KKR. KKR have been on a memorable winning run winning seven out of their last nine games including the Eliminator and the second qualifier. Meanwhile, former Indian opener Aakash Chopra has predicted the winner of the final saying that KKR’s dream run might come to an end on the big night.

In a video shared on his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra reckoned KKR’s winning spree in the IPL finals is likely to end.

“I am going with Chennai. I think the Chennai Super Kings are going to win their fourth title and Kolkata might end up losing a final for the first time. The story might just end” said Chopra.

He has predicted a few more things that might happen in the final. He said that both the keepers MS Dhoni and Dinesh Karthik will score under 30 runs in the game.

“Both keepers will together score less than 30 runs. Ya, Dinesh Karthik and MS Dhoni will both together score less than 30 runs.”

In his analysis, Aakash Chopra further predicted that it is the openers from both teams who will dictate the terms in the match. He said that opers from both sides will score more than their middle-order players.

“The four openers – which means Faf, Ruturaj, Venkatesh Iyer and Shubman Gill – will together score more runs than whoever comes at the No.3 and No.4 positions in the two sides. It is straightforward, actually it should be like that.”

The former KKR concluded by saying that Josh Hazlewood and Lockie Ferguson will keep a check on the scoring rate.

“Hazlewood and Ferguson will concede less than 60 runs. That’s a tough one because dew also comes at times later and the Dubai pitch is favorable for batting. I am saying that they will concede less than 60 on a high-scoring ground. I have made it slightly difficult.”
