#5 Shane Watson v Bhuvneshwar Kumar
His brutal hitting at the top of the order has been a signature of some of the big scores that CSK have put up this season and after a bit of a scratchy innings in the last game, Shane Watson would definitely like to play a vintage knock against the IPL’s best bowling attack.

He is averaging 33.36 at the top of the order and has also recorded an excellent strike rate of 153.55. The Australian’s match-turning capabilities are beyond doubt but against Bhuvneshwar Kumar, he will have to face up to a fresh challenge.
The Indian bowler is one of the smartest medium-pace bowler in the world and despite the punishment he received at the hands of Rishabh Pant in the previous game, he is experienced enough to not let such events cloud his mind.
His intelligence, movement, and accuracy will be a big test for Watson at the outset and it is a battle that is going to have a huge impact on the game.
