Deccan Gladiators ran amok to bring up a 63-run mauling over the bottom-ranked Team AD and leapfrogged several teams to the second position on the table. Chennai Braves had a close shave against the same team, winning by a ridiculously fine margin of 4 runs.
At the moment, DG is playing an aggressive brand of cricket and getting better and better with each match whereas Chennai Braves are nowhere near the best. They’re just going through the motions and don’t look like they’re here to compete.
The head-to-head may read 2-1, but on current form Chennai Braves have to play a different brand of cricket to be able to even compete with a team like DG who’ve won two championships back to back and are now a genuine chance to stake claim for the third with a massive win last match.

A 63-run rout of Team Abu Dhabi has catapulted Deccan Gladiators back in the reckoning amongst teams like Delhi Bulls, Samp Army and New York Strikers. And it looks like some sense of order has returned to the standings after all.
Gladiators have been making higher scores every time they get down on the park, and by that logic they should get more than 141 in their next hit against the Braves. To plunder 141 runs inside 10 overs is not easy at all, but Andre Fletcher smoked 5 sixes out of the park in his 12-ball stint to finish with 41 himself. But their bowlers put in their best performance of this tournament and were too miserly in their bowling effort despite having a boatload of runs to defend.
Quite surprisingly, 4 of their bowlers went for under 10 an over, with Luke Wood and Nuwan Thusara putting the choke on Team Abu Dhabi batsmen giving away 8 runs and 5 runs in their 2 over stints respectively. A clinical display against a lower ranked team has pushed them up to the top half of the table, but will their players be able to repeat their performance and consolidate their position there?
Tom Kohler-Core, Andre Fletcher, Nicholas Pooran (c & wk), Andre Russell, Fabian Allen, Imad Wasim, David Wiese, Trent Boult, Luke Wood, Zahoor Khan, Mohammad Zahid, Nuwan Thushara.

The Chennai Braves haven’t been pretty ordinary this tournament. This format is all about being able to assess the match situation and conditions and play instinctively. Players need to be able to think on their feet and react promptly to situations to give themselves the best chance to get over the line.
But Chennai Braves are nowhere near where they want to be, with bat and ball. It’s plain to see that their bowlers and batters, barring the blinder Jason Roy played in their opening game, are struggling to find their feet. With Sikandar Raza walking straight into the squad, their batting looks a bit more potent.
They picked up two crucial points against Northern Warriors but their NRR has taken a hammering. But they need to find a way to win and win big in the remaining matches if they want to have a crack at playing the qualifier or eliminator.
Jason Roy, Kobe Herft, Stephen Eskinazi, Charith Asalanka (c), Sikander Raza, Mohammad Nabi, Vriitya Aravind (wk), Sam Cook, Chris Sole, Junaid Siddique, Bhanuka Rajapaksa.

This night fixture is scheduled to start at 08:30 PM local time when the temperatures are likely to be around 22-23 degree Celsius. Bowlers opening the attack may get some assistance on and off the pitch, so opening batters will do well to see off a few balls before they go hard swinging.

Sheikh Zayed stadium, Abu Dhabi is hosting this contest.
Deccan Gladiators would be pleased to bat first again but they should see how their batters go chasing down a huge total. They failed once chasing a big score against the Bangla Tigers and may want to straighten out that aspect of their game.
The Chennai Braves look the weaker side on paper and are no match to Deccan Gladiators on current form. But it’s a new day and another opportunity to go out there and put an impressive performance comes calling. Will the braver Chennai Braves turn up and make a fight out of it?
