CSK vs PBKS: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will host Punjab Kings (PBKS) in match number 41 of the IPL 2023 on Sunday. The match will kick start from 3:30 PM IST. CSK are placed fourth on the ten-team points table after five wins in eight matches.

Punjab, on the other hand, are occupying the sixth spot after four wins and as many defeats. The side has lost two of their last three matches including the last game against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). Chennai won three consecutive matches before losing against Rajasthan in their last match.

As the two teams gear up to clash against each other for the first time in the IPL 2023, let's have a look at four players who can score most runs in the match.

Devon Conway: The New Zealand star is the third-highest scorer of the IPL 2023 and the leading run-scorer for his team. He has scored 322 runs in eight matches at an average of 46 and a strike rate of 137.02.

The southpaw has smashed four fifties in his last five innings (four consecutive). Overall, Conway has played 148 T20 matches and scored 4971 runs at an average of 43.60.

Ajinkya Rahane: To tackle the quality of Punjab bowlers, CSK would be needing the quality of Ajinkya Rahane. So far in the tournament, Rahane has played 6 matches and scored 224 runs at an average of 44.80 and a strike rate of 189.83.

The 34-year-old has played 18 matches against Punjab and scored 467 runs at an average of 31.13 and a strike rate of 114.46. He has smashed three fifties against the opposition.

Atharva Taide: The 23-year-old Punjab Kings youngster scored 66 runs off 36 balls in his last outing against Lucknow. He was the top run-scorer for his side. His innings was studded with eight fours and two sixes.

Overall, he has scored 99 runs in four matches at an average of 24.75 and a strike rate of 170.68. Eyes will be on the very talented Vidarbha batter on Sunday.

Shikhar Dhawan: The Punjab Kings batter came after a three-match break due to an injury but could score only one run against LSG. He is still the leading run-scorer for Punjab and would be looking to bounce back in a crunch game for his side.

In the season so far, he has scored 234 runs in five matches at an average of 78 and a strike rate of 145.34. Dhawan has an excellent record against CSK. He has scored 1029 runs in 28 matches at an average of 44.73 and a strike rate of 130.74.
