On May 1, Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium hosted Match 49 of the Indian Premier League 2024 between the Punjab Kings and Chennai Super Kings. After winning the toss, PBKS decided to field. Sam Curran declared an unchanged eleven, demonstrating his faith in his group.

We must get off to a strong start and take early wickets because this venue and the atmosphere are incredible. We’ll use the assurance gained from that pursuit of 261. They’re a strong team; all we need to do is fight with tenacity and courage. At the toss, Curran declared, “Same team for us.”
