former champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will look to ensure a top-two finish when they take on a formidable Delhi Capitals (DC) in Match 50 of the IPL 2021 on Monday. This is a great chance for both teams to build momentum and confidence ahead of the playoffs.

Both CSK and DC have lost just one match in the UAE leg and were the first two teams to book a spot in the playoffs. Rishabh Pant and MS Dhoni would want their teams to finish in the top two as it will give DC and CSK two shots at reaching the IPL 2021 finals.

Led by Rishabh Pant, DC have looked determined to complete the job after finishing runners-up last year. Like CSK, Delhi too have 18 points from nine wins and three losses from their 12 games.

Capitals are coming off from a win against the defending champions Mumbai Indians while Chennai Super Kings, on the other hand, suffered their third loss of the season. Notably, the Capitals had defeated the Super Kings in their first meeting earlier this season in Mumbai.
