Chennai Super Kings vs Delhi Capitals Predictions

Last year’s runners-up the Delhi Capitals will face one of last season’s great underachievers in CSK. The match will begin at 7:30 pm IST and will take place at a neutral venue, in this case, Mumbai. It’s on April 10 and should pit two evenly-matched sides in what should be a fine match.

Chennai Super Kings vs Delhi Capitals betting predictions

As part of our daily cricket betting tips, I have listed today’s CSK vs DC betting tips. I predict that Chennai will win today’s IPL game.

Bet	Odds	Site
Match Winner: CSK	1.62	Casumo

CSK Top Batsman: Gaturaj Gaikwad	4.25	Betway
HOT BET! DC Top Batsman: Rishabh Pant	5.5	10CRIC

Venue & conditions

Mumbai is generally known as a high-scoring ground where you can trust the surface to play the attacking, aggressive shots that have given Mumbai’s own batsmen so much joy over the years.

It’s generally seen as a ground best suited to chasing because you can score quickly at the death on a good surface with some slightly shorter boundaries. So that might be an in-play angle right there: back the side batting second.

CSK v DC Head-to-Head

It’s 15 wins to CSK over the years to DC’s eight. Hardly surprising given how consistently good CSK have been in the IPL whereas Delhi have so often struggled.  But Capitals’ fans can take some comfort from the fact their side beat Chennai twice last season, an excellent season for them and a really poor one for CSK.

Toss Winner

Backing Chennai to win the coin toss is the smart bet here. Looking into the CSK vs DC statistics, you can see that Chennai have won the toss almost 60% of the time. Also, worth knowing that they won both coin tosses against DC last year.

TEAMS	TOSS WINS	WIN PERCENT
Chennai Super Kings	14 wins	58.33%
Delhi Capitals	10 wins	41.67%

Chennai vs Delhi Match Winner Prediction

Recommended Bet: Back CSK to win @ 2.15 with Casumo 

This is one of the tougher games to predict. On the one hand we’ve got DC still recovering from the loss of Iyer and now dealing with the absences of Rabada and Nortje, as well. Pant will also be making his debut as an IPL captain.

On the other hand we have CSK without Ngidi and complaining that many of their players haven’t played much recently.

But Dhoni knows the ropes like no other, they have a far stronger head-to-head record and at the considerably bigger price, CSK are the pick.

CSK vs DC Top Batsman Bet

Recommended Bet: Back Gaturaj Gaikwad to be CSK Top Batsman @ 4.25 with Betway 

We’re big fans of Gaturaj Gaikwad here at Bet India. In fact, he was one of our three top picks for Top Batsman for the whole IPL.

The CSK opener was brilliant at the back end of last season and has continued his good work since, recently scoring 102 in a List A match.

There’s some uncertainty regarding CSK’s batting order but he’s almost certain to open and should have a decent chance after what we saw last year.

Today’s Hot Bet  

Recommended Bet: Back Rishabh Pant to be Delhi Top Batsman @ 5.5 with 10CRIC

As we said already, there’s some uncertainty regarding who will bat where for DC.

But here’s what we do know. Pant has been India’s most in-form batsman across all formats since last year’s IPL and was in red-hot form in the ODI and T20 Series against England, boasting a sky-high strike rate.

As skipper he’ll want to make an impact rather than leaving it to others so we can expect him to bat at four. At odds of 5.0, that will do us nicely given all that he’s got so much going for him.
