IPL 2024: CSK Have To Get Virat Kohli Out In Power-play In Opener, Says Matthew Hayden
Chennai Super Kings: When the two powerhouses of the tournament, Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Chennai Super Kings, meet in the opening match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 here on Friday, the focus will be on former India captain Virat Kohli, who is making his return to competitive cricket after missing the South Africa series for the birth of his son.
Former Australia opener Matthew Hayden believes CSK will have to get Kohli out within in the Power-play if they have to do well in the IPL opener. Hayden spoke on Virat Kohli’s form at the Chepauk Stadium and how the pitch behaves in comparison with the Chinnaswamy.
“One thing is for certain, it's a blockbuster showdown. Virat Kohli this year is going to be celebrated across all the games. His record is a 30 average at Chepauk stadium with a strike rate of 111. You know what that means? For someone like Virat, even the greatness of Virat has been reduced in terms of his overall performance at that venue," said Matthew Hayden, speaking exclusively to Star Sports on the IPL curtain raiser show.
