Let’s take a look at the analysis of probable playing XI and the impact players of respective teams.

Chennai Super Kings

Rachin Ravindra’s rise in the past year may see him partner Gaikwad at the top, especially given his ability to bowl a few overs at Chepauk. Expect Ellis, Noor, and Pathirana to be the overseas players. CSK’s batting depth has improved, with several players capable of contributing with the ball as well.

While DC’s captaincy remains undecided, it will likely fall to Axar or Rahul. This is one possible lineup, though they could opt for Faf du Plessis to strengthen their batting and include Mohit Sharma instead of Rizvi.

Gujarat Titans

Gujarat’s top three aim to bat deep, which puts pressure on the middle order. Phillips is likely to start, but Sherfane Rutherford could also make an appearance. On spinning tracks, Sai Kishore may replace Prasidh Krishna or Lomror.

Kolkata Knight Riders

KKR’s captaincy remains uncertain. However, they have plenty of backup options for key players, including Spencer Johnson for Nortje, Ajinkya Rahane for a batter, and Mayank Markande for Varun Chakravarthy. Their strategy is to have aggressive batters and a strong bowling attack, as they did in their IPL 2024 win.

Lucknow Super Giants

The big question for LSG is where Pant will bat and whether he will lead the team. Their depth in both batting and bowling makes them one of the most well-rounded teams, and their potential bench strength, including M Siddharth and Rajvardhan Hangargekar, is also formidable.

MI have retained their Indian core of batters and all-rounders, allowing them to include Jacks alongside Boult and Santner. They could also opt for a fourth overseas player depending on the conditions, with Ryan Rickelton, Reece Topley, and Allah Ghazanfar available as Impact Players.

Punjab Kings

The return of Glenn Maxwell is a major boost for Punjab, who are hopeful that Shreyas Iyer can turn their fortunes around. The team has good depth, with backup options like Kuldeep Sen and Josh Inglis to cover for injuries or form issues.

Rajasthan invested heavily in their bowling department, though their key players, Archer and Hasaranga, are injury-prone. However, the inclusion of all-rounders like Rana and Hasaranga addresses their previous lack of balance.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru

RCB has shifted its strategy this season by building a more balanced team. With Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Hazlewood as the new-ball attack, they can also call on Yash Dayal and Suyash Sharma in the spin department. Their depth in backup options like Romario Shepherd and Swapnil Singh gives them flexibility.

Sunrisers Hyderabad

SRH have strengthened their batting with additions like Kishan and Manohar, but their lack of depth in Indian batting options is a concern. Their backup overseas players lack IPL experience, which could pose a challenge, and one of Cummins or Harshal may need to bat higher in the order.
