Cricket Free Tips | IPL 2021, Match 53: Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings

Chennai Super Kings will face Punjab Kings in the 53rd match of the IPL 2021. It’s a game that both teams need to win. Chennai will be looking for a top-two finish, whereas Punjab will need to win to remain in the playoff race. Chennai Super Kings are in trouble, losing their past two matches to Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals. With 18 points, they are currently in second place in the standings.

They were cruising along against RCB at one point but eventually lost by 6 runs. With 10 points, they are currently in sixth place in the standings. Their qualification scenarios need to pay special attention to the KKR, MI, and RR results.
