The Qualifier 2 gives KXIP a second and final chance to redeem their defeat against KKR
For CSK the match will be a litmus test for the bowlers, especially Mohit Sharma, Jadeja and Ashwin as Chennai would like them to keep Maxwell, Virender Sehwag, David Miller and Manan Vohra in check.
In the head-to-head calculation, KXIP are on top this season by beating CSK convincingly twice. Moreover, KXIP were the only opposition that troubled CSK the most and the prime tormentor being Glenn Maxwell - who with his 90-plus knocks in Abu Dhabi and Cuttack flattened CSK

MOM - Virender Sehwag(KXIP)
Virender Sehwag, who tormented the CSK bowlers and set up the win of his side with a 58-ball 122 said Sachin Tendukar advised him to spend more time at the crease.
"I was hitting the ball well throughout. I had a chat with master also, Sachin Tendulkar. He said your hands are going well just a matter of one innings, just stay there and put the conscious effort to stay till the 10-12th over,
everything will be alright," Sehwag said.
Virender Sehwag had scored a hundred in the 2011 edition for Delhi Daredevils against Deccan Chargers
