The Sunrisers Hyderabad will aim to get back on track when they face the Chennai Super Kings in the 46th match of the IPL 2022 at the MCA Stadium in Pune. When CSK upset Royal Challengers Bangalore and Mumbai Indians in the competition, there was considerable excitement among CSK fans, but the Men in Yellow failed to impress further, and several losses damaged their campaign. With Ravindra Jadeja handing over the captaincy to MS Dhoni, the squad has a chance to get back on track.
SRH, on the other hand, produced a remarkable recovery after losing their first two games this year, winning five in a row. SRH were defeated by Gujarat Titans on the final ball of their most recent match, but there was enough evidence to demonstrate that running past the Kane Williamson-led club in the remaining matches will be difficult.
The match is scheduled to take place on the 1st of May,2022 at the MCA Stadium, Pune.

Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Chennai Super Kings Match 46 – Players to Watch
MS Dhoni
The legend has been given the captaincy role yet again and it looks like the maestro is all set to attempt the impossible by winning all the remaining league stage games and getting the Chennai Super Kings to yet another playoff entry. This season has been great for MSD, who has relished the finisher role and showed us glimpses of his explosive self in the matches where he has taken to the pitch. We expect to see some tactical brilliance as well as magic with the bat in the coming games.
Dwayne Bravo
The seasoned all-rounder has been the pick of the bowlers for Chennai Super Kings, having scalped 14 wickets from 8 matches. He is the man the skipper turns to when a breakthrough is required and while we have not seen him light up the stage with the bat, he has runs in him and whenever the situation arises, he is fully capable of hitting those big shots and getting his team across the line. With Dhoni back in as the captain, we expect to see Bravo go above and beyond and create some magic with the bat and ball.
Abhishek Sharma
The youngster has been thriving in the Sunrisers Hyderabad camp and is giving them a bang for the buck in every single game. So far in the tournament, he has amassed 285 runs from 8 games and is among the top 10 run-scorers in the league so far. The Chennai bowling attack is tricky and the Sunrisers will be counting on Abhishek to put in a gutsy performance.
Umran Malik
The young bowler has been tearing the batting attack apart wherever he has gone and is currently the third-highest wicket-taker in the league with 15 wickets from 8 matches. He seems to have gained confidence and control over his pace as the tournament has progressed and is currently an absolute weapon for the resurgent Sunrisers Hyderabad side.
