IPL 2021: In the eighth match of the Indian Premier League, Punjab Kings will take on the Chennai Super Kings at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

Punjab Kings Probable XI: KL Rahul, Deepak Hooda, Chris Gayle, Mayank Agarwal, Shahrukh Khan, Nicholas Pooran, Mohammed Shami, Riley Meredith, Murugan Ashwin, Jhye Richardson, Arshdeep Singh.
Chennai Super Kings Probable XI: MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, Ambati Rayudu, Moeen Ali, Suresh Raina, Faf du Plessis, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Deepak Chahar, Shardul Thakur, Dwayne Bravo, Sam Curran.
Punjab Kings will look to avoid mistakes that they did in the last year by constantly changing their playing XI. They should respect the abilities of some great players such as Richardson and Meredith and give them time to adapt to subcontinental conditions.
