I was a dilemma when seeing the batting of Suryakumar, krunal Pandya and Hardik Pandya as from this they have a good total on the board.
Chennai super kings are at a second position with winning 93 matches in 10 years. Because of 2 years banned they had not played a single match and so they are in the second position.
