Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Delhi Capitals (DC) will be facing each other in the 55th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Wednesday, May 10. CSK have almost secured their place in the playoffs while DC are still struggling to make their in the top 5 spots as they are currently standing at the 9th position with only 8 points.
CSK batters are in great form as almost every batter from the top order has produced some great knocks in the season so far. On the other DC, batters have miserably failed and their biggest concern is the middle order. On that note, we will take a look at 3 batters who can be the highest run-scorer in CSK vs DC clash.
Here are the possible three most run scorers in the CSK vs DC clash in IPL 2023
1. Devon Conway
The stylish New Zealand left-hander has proved himself as a great opening player for CSK. His ability to score big has helped CSK many times to amass a massive total or chase huge targets. Conway has already scored 458 runs in the 10 matches he played in the season so far.
He is currently at the 4th position in the Orange Cap winner list, the left-handed batter has a great chance to play another big innings against the weak bowling attack of DC and become the table-topper of the highest run-scorer list.
2. David Warner
Australian veteran left-hander David Warner isn’t having a great time leading the Capitals but his individual performance is decent so far. He has played 10 matches in the season so far and scored 330 runs at an average of 33, however, his strike rate of 120.44 has disappointed the fans a lot.
Warner was seen in great touch in DC’s last match which was against Royal Challengers Bangalore as he was playing with a strike rate of more than 150. Warner can score big against CSK as he has enough skills to play against the CSK spinners.
3. Ruturaj Gaikwad
The young CSK opener Ruturaj Gaikwad continued his brilliant form in the 16th edition as well. In the 10 matches he has played so far this season, the right-hander managed to score 384 runs. Gaikwad has shown intent in almost every innings he played this season, he has made full use of the mandatory powerplay.
Gaikwad likes to score against pacers and he will have a great chance against DC to some runs as DC have some bowlers who bowl at a decent pace. It won’t take Gaikwad too many matches to make himself a top contender to win the coveted Orange cap at the end of the tournament.
