Next up in the Vivo IPL 2021 is a contest between the Punjab Kings and the Chennai Super Kings. Both these teams had a disappointing run last time around. PBKS started this season with a bang and set a mammoth total of 221 runs against the Rajasthan Royals. But death overs is a major concern for them as they leaked a lot of runs in the final overs.
On the other hand, we have the Chennai Super Kings who lost their opening encounter against an inspired Delhi Capitals side. Dhoni and co will be looking to come all guns all guns in this match. This makes it an interesting watch from a neutral point of view.

PBKS vs CSK IPL 2021 Pitch Report:
We can expect a good track for the batsmen at Wankhede. The ball comes on nicely to the bat and the seamers will have to rely on change of pace if they want to succeed here. Dew could play a major role in this match as has been visible in the previous matches here.
Both the captains will be looking to bowl first upon winning the toss. A score of around 180 would be a par score on this ground. But there is no safe score as such looking at the pitch and more importantly the batting lineup of either side.
