PBKS vs CSK Playing 11 and Prediction IPL 2024: The North and South will be meeting each other as Punjab Kings host Chennai Super Kings on Sunday (May 5) in a crucial IPL 2024 match at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala.
PBKS have won their last two matches and are placed 7th in the table with 8 points in 10 matches. CSK lost their last match against the same opponent and are now sitting 5th with 10 points in 10 matches.

Punjab have seen spring in their steps and will be boosted by the recent results. Shikhar Dhawan will miss this match but is likely to come back in their last three matches. Even without Dhawan, the Punjab side has been excellent in the last two matches. The likes of Jonny Bairstow, Prabhsimran Singh and others have played a crucial part. From the last match, the Kings may not be interested to make too much changes.
CSK have Deepak Chahar ruled out with an injury as the pacer is likely to be out of the IPL 2024. Along with him, Mustafizur Rahman is back in Bangladesh for national duty while Tushar Deshpande is also struggling with a niggle. We can see Rachin Ravindra coming in while Mukesh Choudhary may also make return to the first team. The good thing is that Matheesha Pathirana, who missed the last match at Chepauk, is set to return in Dharamshala.
PBKS Probable XI: Jonny Bairstow, Sam Curran (c), Rilee Rossouw, Shashank Singh, Jitesh Sharma (wk), Ashutosh Sharma, Harpreet Brar, Harshal Patel, Kagiso Rabada, Rahul Chahar, Arshdeep Singh
