KKR vs CSK Head to Head Records: The Sportsrush presents for you the Head to Head statistics for the 21st match of IPL 2020.

The 21st match of the ongoing 13th season of the Indian Premier League will be played between Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings in Abu Dhabi tomorrow.

Having both won and lost two matches in IPL 2020 so far, Knight Riders are at the fourth position on the points table. Super Kings, on the other hand, are at the sixth position with three losses in five matches till now.

After losing their last match against Delhi Capitals, Kolkata captain Dinesh Karthik had opened up on considering replacing makeshift opening batsman Sunil Narine at the top of the order. If that happens, it will be interesting to see who out of Rahul Tripathi and Tom Banton opens for KKR alongside Shubman Gill.
