On April 30, 2023, at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chepauk, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) will square off in the ongoing IPL.
It will be the tournament’s forty-first game. CSK have 10 points after eight games, placing them in fourth place right now. PBKS, on the other hand, are in sixth place with eight points through eight games.
After losing to RR, CSK is currently recovering. While PBKS are also leaving a loss to LSG behind them. Consequently, both teams will aim for victory. However, in the previous five matches, PBKS prevailed three times, compared to CSK’s two victories. In six games played at Chepauk, CSK prevailed four times, while PBKS triumphed twice.
Here are the potential top three run scorers in the IPL 2023 match between CSK and PBKS.
1. Devon Conway
This Kiwi batter has been in outstanding shape thus far in the current IPL. Devon Conway has scored 322 runs, or an average of 46, in eight games. Four cities have been added to his list. In the competition for the Orange Cap, Conway is currently in third place. He scored four straight fifties after the first three games.
Conway only scored eight runs against Rajasthan Royals in the most recent game, though. Devon Conway will therefore aim for another big knock this time in front of the home crowd when he faces PBKS. The Kiwi opener has scored 47, 50, and 77* runs in his three games so far in Chennai.
2. Atharva Taide
Against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), this young player produced an outstanding knock. Eight fours and two sixes were part of Atharva Taide’s 66 runs off of 36 balls. Taide has scored 99 runs in four games during the IPL 2023 so far, averaging 24.75. PBKS supporters have been watching this batter closely since the beginning of this season.
Despite some setbacks, the franchise continued to support him. He had a three-ball duck in his first game against LSG. He only managed to score four runs in the following game against RCB. Following that, he scored 29 runs against MI. Therefore, fans can anticipate another strong performance from this batter in Chennai after he scored fifty in the most recent game.
3. Shivam Dube
In the IPL 2023, this southpaw batter has been in commanding form for CSK. In seven innings, Shivam Dube has scored 236 runs at an average of 33.71. He has currently scored three fifties, all of which came quickly. These all occurred within the last four innings. Dube crushed RCB for 52 runs in just 27 balls.
After that, he defeated KKR by scoring 50 runs off 21 balls, including two fours and five sixes. His 52 runs off 33 balls, which included two fours and four sixes, against Rajasthan Royals in the most recent game. Therefore, CSK supporters will be hoping for another outstanding and fierce strike from Shivam Dube against Shikhar Dhawan and his team.
