Today Cricket Match Prediction, Kolkata Knight Riders vs Chennai Super Kings, IPL T20, 15th Match. Who Will Win, On Apr 21, 2021

The cricket fans are ready to witness yet another big battle of the IPL T20. The 15th Match of the Indian Premier League is scheduled to play between Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings on Wednesday, 21st April 2021 at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. We are posting safe, accurate, and 100% secure today match prediction for all matches of IPL T20 free.

Kolkata Knight Riders had won just one out of three matches played so far. They had lost their most recent match against Royal Challengers Bangalore by the margin of 38 runs. The bowling department of KKR had not performed well as many of us were thinking. Harbhajan Singh is a leading bowler and a legendary IPL player who has a great past. T20 cricket is the game of young players and with the respect to Harbhajan Singh, we don’t think that he fits in the final playing eleven. Varun Chakravarthy had picked some wickets in the previous match but also had leaked runs. Sunil Narine is not in good touch in batting and even bowling which is not a good thing for KKR. Pat Cummins is still a bowler who is still struggling to adjust to the conditions in India. Andre Russell was outstanding with the ball against Mumbai Indians but he was the most expensive bowler against RCB in the most recent match. We are in still the early days of IPL and KKR needs to get the best bowling combination for upcoming matches.

The batting order of Kolkata Knight Riders been average in the recently played matches. They scored 187 runs in the very first match that they played against SRH but they failed to chase the target of 153 runs and scored 142 runs. They scored 166 runs in the most recent match where they were chasing the target of 205 runs. Almost all batsmen from their side had put some runs on the board but no one had scored big runs. Nitish Rana, Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi, and the skipper, Eoin Morgan had failed to put some big runs on the board individual. Andre Russell showed some power hitting in the previous match and we are hopeful that he will continue this good for in upcoming matches.

Chennai Super Kings are back on the winning track after losing their very first match of this season of the IPL T20. They had won their most recent both matches and are holding 2nd position on the points table when we are writing this. Like KKR, the batting order of Chennai Super Kings is also performing average as we had observed in this tournament so far. We had not seen any big individual score by any batsman of CSK. Faf du Plessis had been consistent in runs scoring in almost all matches he had played so far. Moeen Ali is the batsman who had shown us some power hitting in the recently played matches. Ruturaj Gaikwad is still waiting for good form while Suresh Raina had an outstanding performance in the opening match but had failed to score runs in the next matches.

Rayudu and the skipper, MS Dhoni are also searching for a good form. We had seen some interesting batting performance by Sam Curran in almost all matches played so far and we think that he should promote up the order. Like the batting, the bowling department of Chennai Super Kings is also searching for a good combination. It was Moeen Ali who destroyed the batting order of Rajasthan Royals. He picked three wickets against just seven runs in his three overs bowled out. Sam Curran also had performed well with the ball. He had been good at bowling. Not only had been the most economical bowler but he also had picked wickets in all matches he had played. Deepak Chahar and Ravindra Jadeja also had performed well in almost previously played matches.

Kolkata Knight Riders had played 24 matches against Chennai Super Kings where Kolkata Knight Riders had won 9 matches while Chennai Super Kings had won 15 matches overall.

Kolkata Knight Riders had won three out of five most recent matches played while Chennai Super Kings had won three out of five recently played matches.

The toss is going to play an important in the result of each and every match of IPL T20 as we had observed in the previous editions. According to our toss prediction, the team who will win the toss will elect to field first as defending had been difficult in the most recent matches of IPL.

The 15th Match of IPL T20, 2021 is going to be held at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. We had observed in the previous matches played here that the pitch here at this venue is good for batting in early overs. The track is slower than the others we have seen and helps the spinners quite a bit. We are hoping that the surface is bound to get slower and be a bit more difficult for batting in the last overs this match. A score of 185 seems to be a par score.

The weather forecast of Mumbai is almost good this cricket match. There are almost no chances of rain in the region and we are hopeful that we will have a full match to enjoy.
