IPL 2022, SRH vs CSK Stats And Records Preview: T20 Numbers at MCA Stadium, Dhoni, Uthappa, Pooran eye records

Pune, April 30: While history is very much with Chennai Super Kings as they take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in Match 46 of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2022) at the MCA Stadium here, the performance of the four-time champions this season fails to generate much enthusiasm among their millions of fans.

Sitting at ninth position with just two wins to show for their efforts, the defending champions, while still not out of the competition, have a very slim chance of making the grade, and in a last-ditch effort the CSK have handed the captaincy back to MS Dhoni from Ravindra Jadeja.

The SRH, on the other hand, have overcome the disaster of IPL 2021 to be among the title contenders leading into the business end of the tournament.

While CSK would be hoping for Shivam Dube to play another match-defining innings after his unbeaten 95 against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 'Southern Derby' more than two weeks ago, the return of Devon Conway after a wedding break will boost CSK's batting.

Sri Lanka's Matheesha Pathirana, who replaced Adam Milne, too has also joined the squad and has impressed.The toss too could play a vital role at the venue.

So here are some stats and approaching milestones of SRH vs CSK match.
