IPL 2022: CSK vs KKR – Fantasy Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing XI Detail

IPL 2022 CSK KKR

IPL fever is back with defending champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) locking horns with Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Saturday at the Wankhede Stadium. Both teams will hope to make a winning start and set the tone for the rest of the tournament.

The Chennai franchise will miss two of their star players in Deepak Chahar and Moeen Ali, which will be a massive blow to the franchise. Moreover, MS Dhoni has relinquished his leadership duties two days ahead of IPL 2022.

With a new captain in Ravindra Jadeja at the helm, CSK will have some challenges early on. However, the four-time champions have some firepower who can change the fortune of the game. Last year’s Orange holder Ruturaj Gaikwad will look to extend his dream run this year as well.

KKR, on the other hand, looks more settled despite missing out on Tim Southee and Pat Cummins. But they have made some star signing at the mega auction, including Shreyas Iyer, who was later appointed as the captain. Ajinkya Rahane is likely to open along with Venkatesh Iyer.
