Chennai Super Kings who were pretty comfortable at the top of the IPL 2019 table are now second to Delhi Capitals who have a better net run rate thanks to a string a disappointing performances. CSK has two more matches left to turn this around and maybe find some form heading into the playoffs. This game will also have Mumbai Indians’ attention who are currently waiting on the sidelines to jump into the top two.

Let’s take a look at the playing 11 for the Chennai Super Kings vs Delhi Capitals match and also shed some light on our top five Fantasy Cricket picks for your CSK vs DC Dream11 team:
CSK vs DC predicted playing 11:
Chennai were without skipper MS Dhoni and all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja who both were rested due to illness. While Jadeja was seen on Sunday during CSK’s practice session, Dhoni has still not joined the team. N Jagadeesan who is CSK’s rarely used back-up keeper could get a run-in of Dhoni fails to recover in time. CSK would also not want to risk any injuries with the playoffs coming and could see them playing it safe.
Delhi Capitals on the other hand made a lot of changes especially in the beginning of the season but has somewhat zeroed in on their best XI. With the four Indian batsmen at the top of the order, DC have Kagiso Rabada for a couple of more games and will look to end the group stages strongly. Here are our top five Fantasy Cricket picks for your CSK vs DC Dream11 team:
VIVO IPL 2019 Match 50: Top CSK vs DC Dream11 picks
1. Shreyas Iyer – Batsman, Delhi Capitals
The skipper has been Delhi’s best batsman in the league, often raking up a half-century and rescuing his team out of danger. Iyer once again proved why is an Indian batsman who needs to considered for the national team with yet another century. While inconsistency has been the Capitals’ theme this year, Iyer has stood out from his team and is a smart pick for your CSK vs DC Dream11 side.
Dream11 points – 290
2. Kagiso Rabada – Bowler Delhi Capitals
What a season Rabada has had. With 25 wickets already in the tournament, Rabada is on course to break the record for the most wickets in a single season. With two games remaining in the group stages alone, Rabada needs seven wickets to equal Dwayne Bravo’s record of 32 wickets. Rabada is a definite pick for your Chennai Super Kings vs Delhi Capitals Dream11 team.
Dream11 points – 329
3. Mitchell Santner – All-rounder, Chennai Super Kings
With a really good spell against Mumbai Indians, the Kiwi off-spinner had a really clinical game in their last outing. Santner picked up two wickets for just 13 runs and followed it up a resilient knock of 22 during CSK’d batting collapse. It remains to see if Santner makes the team in the next match but considering his performance against MI, Santner should be playing and is a good pick for your CSK vs DC Dream11 team.
Dream11 points – 71
4. Shane Watson – Batsman, Chennai Super Kings
Although he couldn’t really change the game against Mumbai Indians, his form is a pleasant sight for any CSK fan. A match-winning innings against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Watson was absolutely brilliant and is a player with a lot of experience in the Chennai Super Kings vs Delhi Capital match.
Dream11 points – 188.5
5. Rishabh Pant – Wicket keeper/Batsman, Delhi Capitals
With MS Dhoni most probably missing this fixture, Pant is your obvious first choice for a wicket keeper. Pant has shown in this season how important he is for Delhi Capitals. But inconsistency is something that he too shares with the whole team. But with a few dismissals, Pant could still get you points and is a smart pick for your CSK vs DC Dream11 team.
Dream11 points – 325.5

MA Chidambaram has been the most peculiar pitch in this season with spin being heavily favoured. CSK will look to exploit this with their strong spin line-up but DC’s Sandeep Lamichhane could come handy for the visitors.

Delhi Capitals may be coming into the match at the back of a few really good results but Chennai Super Kings are most dangerous after a defeat and their loss against Mumbai Indians will definitely see a reaction on Wednesday. Our money is on the hosts to emerge victorious with a strong performance.
