CSK vs KKR Live Score, IPL 2026 UPDATES
The coin flip could be of particular importance at the venue where pitches can still play relatively on the slower side.
TOSS: To be announced at 7 PM
During their worst ever IPL season, CSK slumped to new lows even at their fortress Chepauk. Winning the toss only twice at home, CSK only one won of their six home games. On the occasions where the coin did not favour them, CSK dropped all four matches played at home.
Tosses won at home: 2/6
Matches Won after Toss win at home: 1/2; Bat 1st: 0/0 Bat 2nd: 1/2
Matches Won after Toss loss at home: 0/4
During a sluggish season last year, KKR won only two of the toss in six away games. They ended up winning both games in chases. However, the lack of a favourable coin flip meant they dropped points in three of the remaining four matches.
