For CSK, this game is also about redemption. They suffered a heartbreaking loss to RCB in last season’s virtual knockout match, which ended their playoff hopes. Fans eagerly await another showdown between Kohli and CSK icon MS Dhoni.
Kohli has a strong record against CSK, He scored 1,067 runs in 34 IPL matches — the second-most by any player against the team. Only Shikhar Dhawan, with 1,105 runs, has more. Kohli needs just 39 runs to surpass Dhawan and could achieve the milestone in Friday’s game.
