Buoyed by their convincing seven-wicket win over title holders Mumbai Indians, Chennai Super Kings will take on Kings XI Punjab in their IPL Qualifier 2 match at the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai, on Friday.

The winner of the match will advance to the June 1 summit clash against Kolkata Knight Riders at Bangalore.

To achieve the feat of entering the IPL final for the sixth time, Chennai will have to stop Glenn Maxwell, who simply tore into their bowlers, especially two key spinners Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja on the two previous occasions.

The 25-year-old Australian batsman's breathtaking 90-plus run knocks in Abu Dhabi and Cuttack in the group stage of the T20 League helped Punjab outclass Chennai twice in the league stages.

Chennai will also look to take advantage of the fact that Kings XI Punjab, who had looked almost unstoppable during the group stage, have had their hiccups of late. They were beaten comprehensively by Kolkata Knight Riders in the Qualifier 1 match at the Eden Gardens on Wednesday.
