CSK will look to maintain their undefeated record as they look to secure their first away win against the Delhi Capitals at Vizag. But that will prove to be a tough task as only one side has managed to win away from home in the current season.
The five-time champions have a well-oiled batting unit led by Shivam Dube and Rachin Ravindra who have been in fine touch scoring quickly and helping the side get their wins in the past two games.
