PLAYER OF THE MATCH
Harsha Bhogle: At the moment CSK are spending so much time packing that they are getting late reaching the station. And however much they sprint after that, the train isn't waiting for them.

Meghna Vemisetty: I miss Harbhajan and Raina :(
Sarthak: Deja Vu for CSK
Neev: This isn't the CSK we're used to...
Aadi SM: Faf can easily play his countrymen Rabada and Nortje
Deshineni: Nice bit of captaincy from Iyer to complete his spinners overs quickly before CSK start thinking of their domination in the game.
Aadi SM: CSK batting lineup - only Faf du Plessis (one man show)
CD: CSK taking the game into the MSD zone again
Harsha Bhogle: Leaving it till too late, I think. Have to start targeting bowlers now. Maybe Avesh? Irrespective, has to start happening soon...

himanshutibre: DC have made a smart move. Finishing off Axar's overs before MSD lands.
Kunal: Great platform for Ruturaj Gaikwad
Hrithik Bagoriya: In the absence of Raina, Faf has used this opportunity brilliantly with his back-to-back performances.
Gaurav: Axar is such a huge asset in Delhi line up. Great fielder, chips in with bat and gets overs through very quietly.
Mathew: Rabada and Nortje are few torchbearers for a cricketing structure in ruins.... Hope SA become a super-power again with them..
Harsha Bhogle: I think Delhi Capitals are about 10-15 short of what was possible. Makes it a better contest and with these huge boundaries, might even be enough.

Ankush: Vey impressive speed by Anrich, expecting a fiery spell from him tonight!!!!
Ravi: Remember the last over finish of Axar by Dhoni? Better don't leave his overs till the end
Ayush yadav: Rabada can change the game in powerplay!
Prasad Sambamoorthy: Real Test of CSK's death bowling now. DC have wickets in hand and they have some big hitters to come!
Vikesh: Really interested to see how Hazlewood performs at the death. His consistency is second to none, but it doesn't always pay off in death overs.
Damodar Nepal: The acceleration drops when set batsmen depart. Real test for DC's middle-order to finish well from here.
Nihal Singh: Both Chawla and Jadeja have gone above 10rpo in both the matches. It is strange to see CSK's spinners struggle in this IPL, historically they have always been their strength. Hoping for them to pull their socks up as the tournament progresses.
AKM: This is the advantage of playing Chawla. Even though he goes for runs, he will give you those crucial wickets.
Harsha Bhogle: I am a bit intrigued by CSK's approach of going in with only 5 bowling options. Normally Dhoni carries a lot of options onto the field....

vidushi mahajan: Two wickets in two overs for Chawla. CSK applying the breaks..
Harsha Bhogle: Now this is the Prithvi Shaw we want to see. Waiting for the ball to hit rather than going after everything and being unfair to himself. This is a top innings so far
Subhank Gupta: Fabulous to see how DC has paced their innings today. They should now aim at minimum 175 from here
Gopal: Good batting from Shaw. Apart from that one shot against Hazlewood, he has played proper cricketing shots today.
Rishi: Dhawan is struggling to get going so far and more pressure on Shaw as he has got to be the aggressor here.
FT Greater Good: Shaw has to play a big knock today and prove what he is capable of. He is a great talent..
Chandra: People say that none of the CSK spinners are capable of turning the ball away from Delhi's left handed batsmen. But are forgetting the fact that Kedar Jadhav is an off-spinner. Although he is a part-timer, I'm sure Dhoni would be tempted to look at him if the regular spinners start leaking runs.
Sanjay Mitra: Delhi definitely have the spark, it remains to be seen whether the likes of Pant, Shreyas, Hetmyer can start the fire & keep it burning
Sanjay Mitra: Though all teams look a bit rusty, one feels this year Chennai may find the going tough. They have a lot of senior players. It remains to be seen how they cope up with the heat & humidity of the desert, the fitness level will be tested to the limit. Getting ready for the war between youth & the seniors.
Dhavi: I would really like to see DC put up a great fight given that they have covered a lot of bases in their skill sets and should look to capitalize on it fully. Shreyas Iyer has got good potential and this is chance to make a mark for his franchise and for himself as well.
Nik: I'm excited for today's encounter. A charged up Delhi Capitals against a slightly-wounded CSK. Hoping for a fun contest.
