Pune Opt to Bowl, Kartik in for Dinda

Chennai: Pune Warriors skipper Sourav Ganguly won the toss and elected to bowl against Chennai Super Kings at the Chepauk stadium on Thursday.

Pune Warriors will miss the service of Ashok Dinda, who has sustained a side strain. He has been replaced left-arm-spinner Murali Kartik.

Things aren't looking too rosy for Team Chennai. They have lost three games already and if that is not shocking enough they don't look the same invincible unit of yore at home anymore.

Fort Chepauk was breached comfortably by Mumbai and had it not been for Albie Morkel's 19th-over heroics, it would have crumbled against Bangalore too.

Next up is a team full of confidence and even more determination to make a mark in the IPL. Yes, Pune looked stunned on Tuesday night after losing the game to Bangalore ... especially as they seemed to have it under control till almost the last delivery. But Sourav Ganguly has seen all this and more in his long career.

Teams:

Chennai Super Kings:
Faf du Plessis, Wriddhiman Saha, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni (capt & wk), Subramaniam Badrinath, Dwayne Bravo, Ravindra Jadeja, Doug Bollinger, Ravichandran Ashwin, Shadab Jakati, Nuwan Kulasekara

Pune Warriors India: Robin Uthappa (wk), Jesse Ryder, Sourav Ganguly, Marlon Samuels, Steven Smith, Angelo Mathews, Mithun Manhas, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Rahul Sharma, Ashish Nehra, Murali Kartik
