Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad, 2 of the 3 teams that are yet to win a game in IPL 2022 will face each other in the 17th match. CSK have lost all their 3 matches in the tournament. In the previous game against Punjab Kings, CSK bowlers gave away 180 runs. The batters failed to chase this total and lost the match by 54 runs. Shivam Dube was the only batter to score over 25 runs for CSK in the match.

Sunrisers Hyderabad have lost both their games in the tournament while batting second. SRH lost the last match by 12 runs against Lucknow Super Giants. While chasing a target of 170 runs, SRH could make only 157 runs.

Here are 3 players you can avoid in your fantasy teams for the CSK vs SRH game:

1. Abdul Samad

Abdul Samad is yet to make a double-digit score in the tournament. In the first game against Rajasthan Royals, Samad made 4 runs off 6 deliveries. In the second game, Samad was dismissed for a duck. He even bowled an over in the second match and gave away 8 runs. He was one of the 3 players who were retained by SRH for this edition of the league. They shelled out INR 4 crore to get his services and he is yet to justify his price tag. You can avoid him in your fantasy team for this game.

2. Mukesh Choudhary

Mukesh Choudhary made his IPL debut against Lucknow Super Giants and failed to make an impact. He gave away 39 runs in 3.3 overs and went wicket-less. Choudhary got his maiden wicket in his second game against Punjab Kings, however, he gave away 52 runs in 4 overs. You can look at some other bowlers and avoid Mukesh in your fantasy team.

3. Abhishek Sharma

Abhishek Sharma has been given the responsibility of opening the innings along with Kane Williamson. He has failed to get the team off to a solid start in the first two games. He made 9 runs off 19 deliveries in the first game and scored 13 runs off 11 deliveries in the second game. SRH have someone like Rahul Tripathi in the squad who can open the innings. The competition is still in its early stages, therefore SRH may make some adjustments to their starting line-up. As a result, Abhishek should be avoided in your fantasy team.
