Former IPL champions Chennai Super Kings will be looking to bag another victory in their IPL 2021 group match against Punjab Kings today. MS Dhoni's CSK is currently on the second spot on the IPL points table with each team now having one game in hand.

Speaking exclusively on Star Sports show The Super Kings Show, former Team India batsman Subramaniam Badrinath talks about the importance of the CSK vs PBKS fixture. "CSK's match against Punjab Kings, is it the most crucial match? I don't think so because they have played more crucial matches in the past, and they have got themselves into the top 4. So, I wouldn't consider it the most crucial match but it is a key game because if they win it, they will go to the top 2 and knowing Mahendra Singh Dhoni he will be wanting to be in the top 2 - because you get two chances. When you have played consistent cricket throughout the season, you want to top it off and end at the top. So, as far as I am concerned, it is an important game but definitely not the most crucial game." said S Badrinath.
