Dale Steyn vs Faf du Plessis, Brendon McCullum vs Trent Boult, Suresh Raina vs Ishant Sharma, David Warner as full time captain of Sunrisers Hyderabad. If that's not enough there are also a host of star players like Shikhar Dhawan, Kane Williamson, MS Dhoni, Dwayne Bravo set to feature in what promises to be an entertaining clash.

This is Hyderabad's first game of the season and they will be keen to get off to a winning start while Chennai, who won by a solitary run against Delhi Daredevils, will be hoping for a more clinical showing. CSK have an upper hand in terms of head to head numbers, having won three out of four matches against SRH. However, this will count for little as it is a fresh season and SRH have bolstered their unit with a lot of quality.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the toss and did not hesitate to bat first. Chennai Super Kings went in with an unchanged eleven. Sunrisers Hyderabad, in a strange move, decided to leave out Dale Steyn. Skipper David Warner, Kane Williamson, Ravi Bopara and Trent Boult were the four overseas players in the SRH XI.

CSK Playing XI: Brendon McCullum, Dwayne Smith, Suresh Raina, Faf du Plessis, Dwayne Bravo, MS Dhoni(w/c), Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Mohit Sharma, Ishwar Pandey, Ashish Nehra

SRH Playing XI: David Warner, Shikhar Dhawan, KL Rahul, Naman Ojha, Kane Williamson, Ravi Bopara, Parvez Rasool, Karn Sharma, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Ishant Sharma, Trent Boult

Bhuvneshwar Kumar bowled a fine opening over as he troubled Dwayne Smith. The opener, who was beaten twice, got off the mark with a leading edge that travelled to the cover boundary. The much anticipated Boult vs McCullum contest got under way with the swashbuckling opener getting off the mark with a flashy drive wide of cover for a four. There was also a huge shout for leg-before in the same over, but the umpire ruled in favour of McCullum. The start, however was a sedate one for CSK as the Hyderabad bowlers bowled with a lot of discipline, not giving any freebies.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar missed a direct hit in the third over, giving Dwayne Smith a reprieve, and the batsman also received four bonus runs because of a overthrow. McCullum could not be kept quiet for too long as he hit the first maximum of the innings by clearing the deep mid-wicket fence off Bhuvneshwar. Thirteen runs came off that over, while the following one was productive too with McCullum and Smith managing a boundary each off Boult.
