Chennai Super Kings, who lost their last game even after making more than 200, would be up against the Punjab Kings, who too lost their last match against the Kolkata Knight Riders courtesy of some heavy-hitting by Andre Russell and excellent bowling by Umesh Yadav. The two teams with Kings in their names will colloid at one of the oldest stadiums, the Cricket Club of India- Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai.
IPL 2022 Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings Toss Timing
Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings today's IPL 2022 match will begin at 07:30 Pm IST and 1400 hrs GMT. Thus the toss between Chennai skipper Ravindra Jadeja and Punjab captain Mayank Agarwal would take place 30 minutes before the match start time. Hence, the CSK vs PBKS toss would take place at 07:00 pm IST and 1330 hrs GMT.
Here's how the Playing 11 of CSK and PBKS would look like
Chennai really need to work on their bowling combinations. Mukesh Chaudhary was not up to the mark whatsoever and neither was Shivam Dube. Dube is not a death bowler and hence with his slow cutters, he must be utilised in the middle overs. Rajvardhan Hangargekar or KM Asif who have shown that they are good yorker bowlers must be tried in place of Chaudhary or even both Chaudhary and Tushar Deshpande. The rest of the 11 looks settled.
Punjab Kings' management needs to speak to Mayank Agarwal and tell him that Raj Angad Bawa is an all-rounder and he must be bowled two overs alongside Odean Smith and Liam Livingstone. It is obvious that one of the four bowlers in Rahul Chahar, Kagiso Rabada, Arshdeep Singh and Harpreet Brar would definitely have a bad day and it is then that Bawa, Livingstone and Odean need to be utilised. Thus Playing 11 should remain the same for Punjab but the roles need to change.

Ruturaj Gaikwad, Robin Uthappa, Moeen Ali, Ambati Rayudu, Ravindra Jadeja(c), MS Dhoni(w), Shivam Dube, Dwayne Bravo, Dwaine Pretorius, Rajvardhan Hangargekar, Tushar Deshpande
