IPL 2022: CSK vs DC Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Tips, Possible Playing 11, Match Prediction

Mumbai, May 6: Upbeat with their emphatic victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad in the previous game, Delhi Capitals will be taking on beleaguered Chennai Super Kings in match number 55 of the IPL 2022 in the second doubleheader on Sunday (May 8).

With MS Dhoni-led back as the captain, CSK hoped for a change in fortune but the defending champions have lacked consistency this season. The Yellow Brigade has lost seven games out of ten and has been eliminated from the playoffs race. The franchise, however, would now be looking to play for pride in the remaining games and spoil the fate of other teams.

Delhi Capitals returned to the winning ways when they prevailed over Sunrisers Hyderabad by 21 runs to keep themselves in the contention. The Rishabh Pant-led side, which has 10 points in as many games, will be hoping to win at least three of their remaining four matches to stay in the playoffs race.

The Capitals seem to have found the rhythm back with their comprehensive victory over SRH as they posted a big total with the bat and successfully defended it. The win will give the side the right amount of confidence going into the next game.

For CSK, their batting was a major letdown in the previous game against Royal Challengers Bangalore when they failed to score a little over 50 in the death overs and lost the game. Despite having a fine start in the playoffs, CSK batters lost the plot in the middle overs following which RCB bowlers kept mounting the pressure by picking up wickets at regular intervals which dented their chances badly.

So, here are all the details on the CSK vs DC game such as Dream11 Prediction, Possible Playing 11 and Match Prediction:
