#2 Suresh Raina vs MS Dhoni
For so long, Dhoni and Raina used to act as a force together and had a habit of finishing the games for India as well as Chennai Super Kings. But after the franchise was banned from the IPL, the duo was separated and they went on to lead the two new teams of Rising Pune Supergiant and Gujarat Lions.
Dhoni is not the captain anymore yet the magnitude of his influence in any team is huge. The old friends will be up against each other once again and it will be interesting to see who comes out on top.
Raina had shown top form in the first match against Kolkata where he scored a fifty. On the contrary, Dhoni is short of runs so far this season and has only 28 runs to his name in three innings.
