Four-time champions Chennai Super Kings will host two-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders in match 61 of the IPL 2023 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on double-header Sunday (May 14), with the game scheduled to start at 7:30 PM IST.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led CSK will look to carry on their winning momentum as they aim to strengthen their chances of finishing in the top two, while KKR led by Nitish Rana will look to bounce back and finish the season on a high.

CSK, who opened their campaign with defeat to GT, bounced back with two successive wins before being pegged back at home by Rajasthan Royals. The four-time winners, however, responded again with five wins in the last eight matches including recent meeting with Delhi Capitals.
KKR, on the other hand, opened their campaign with a defeat to PBKS, but responded with back-to-back wins before going on a four match losing streak. They had secured three wins in the last five matches, but their most recent result was defeat to Rajasthan Royals.
KKR had also lost the reverse fixture earlier this season against CSK at Eden Gardens, where MS Dhoni's side scored the highest total at the venue - 235/4 thanks to Ajinkya Rahane's unbeaten 29-ball 71 that was crucial in the 49-run victory.
