Both teams will be missing their skipper who got themselves injured in their last games. Suresh Raina, the stand in captain for Chennai has no experience of leading the team and Dinesh Karthik vice captain of Delhi has some leadership quality but not upto the level of Gambhir.

Both teams will be having a hard time in the field where they will be searching to excel their team in all three departments. In the previous encounters, Delhi won the 1st one and then Chennai the 2nd one in 2008 and similar results in 2009 as well. In 2009 Delhi won the 1st one by 9-runs and thenChennai by 18-runs. So their has been a tough fight between these two teams in the past as well and it will interesting to watch out in this season as well.

Hayden needs to probably use his Mongoose bat and thrash about than try cheeky shots over the fine-leg, whereas the likes of Suresh Raina and Murali Vijay need to play their natural game and not look to beat the leather out of every ball.

It is the Chennai bowling that is a bit of a worry. Albie Morkel cannot be described as a new ball bowler and continued to leak runs, whereas Sudeep Tyagi’s confidence would be rather low. Hence, the captain needs to look for options and if possible even look at starting with spinners.
