PBKS vs CSK, IPL Toss Result: Today's match players list, teams & umpires for Match 38

According to the IPL schedule 2022, the Punjab Kings (PBKS) take on the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Match 38 of the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Monday.

Both IPL teams have been below-par in the T20 league and find themselves in the bottom three of the IPL 2022 points table. Punjab have registered three wins from seven matches, while Chennai have managed only two from seven.

PBKS will go into Monday’s game under some pressure. They have lost their last two matches in rather disappointing fashion, without putting up a fight. Their performance against the Delhi Capitals (DC) was embarrassing. They folded up for 115 batting first and succumbed to a nine-wicket loss. It will be interesting to see whether Punjab temper their aggressive approach.

CSK may be ninth in the points table, but their fans did have something to cheer about as MS Dhoni lifted the side to a last-ball victory over the Mumbai Indians (MI) with a fine cameo. In an ironic sense, the fact that Chennai are still depending on MSD to win games is proof that many of the others haven't delivered. This is exactly why CSK find themselves placed where they are.

“We don't know if dew will come or not. Hope that dew comes in the second half. We'll look to keep things simple, we will stick to our plans. We don't want to try too many things.”
