SRH vs CSK: Top 5 Dream11 fantasy picks for match 27 of IPL 2026

The SRH vs CSK match of the IPL 2026 will be played in Hyderabad on Saturday.

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are gearing up to take on each other in match 27 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. This contest will commence at 7:30 PM IST on Saturday at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.

SRH have a strong batting unit, which can score 220 or more without much effort. They have made it a habit of scoring big totals consistently. Meanwhile, CSK have also found some form back and have two consecutive victories under their belt.

Khaleel Ahmed will be a big miss for CSK, who has been ruled out due to injury. But they have Mukesh Choudhary and others to fill his gap. It will be a contest between SRH’s powerful batting unit and CSK’s disciplined bowling lineup.

Hence, we have suggested five players from the SRH vs CSK clash who could be a perfect choice for your Dream11 teams on various fantasy cricket platforms.

Top Dream11 fantasy picks for the SRH vs CSK clash

1. Ishan Kishan

The SRH stand-in captain Ishan Kishan is in the form of his life. The left-hander has produced two brilliant knocks in five innings this season, which has put his team in the driving seat.

He is hitting the ball well, and his ability to play all-around makes him a difficult batter to bowl to. Ishan has scored 213 runs at a blistering strike rate of 190.17 with 12 sixes.

2. Sanju Samson

Sanju Samson played two good knocks, and CSK have started winning their matches. That is the impact of Samson on this team. It won’t be a wrong statement to say that CSK are overly depend on Samson’s run.

The CSK opener is in red-hot form. He has already struck a century and is looking pretty good. So, he is a must-pick for your Dream11 team.

3. Ayush Mhatre

The 18-year-old, Ayush Mhatre, has been terrific at no. 3 for CSK. Apart from one dismissal against RCB, he has scored 73, 59, and 39 in the last four knocks.

With Gaikwad struggling at the top, it looks like Mhatre has been given a plan to score quick runs for the team. That is where he has gotten the success. So, he is an ideal pick for your Dream11 team.

4. Abhishek Sharma

You can’t drop the No. 1 ranked T20I batter from your Dream11 team. Abhishek Sharma has two ducks in the last three innings. But when he had played ten or more balls, he had made sure that SRH were getting a flying start.

He scored 48 off 21 against KKR and 74 off 28 against PBKS, which are the signs that he is in good form. His fearless approach makes him an ideal player for your Dream11 team.

5. Heinrich Klaasen

Heinrich Klaasen needs no introduction in this game. He is one of the best middle-order batters in this format. In fact, he is the top scorer for SRH this season. He has scored 224 runs in five innings at an average of 44.80 and a strike rate of 142.67.

Some can argue that he has looked tentative on the crease, but he has runs under his belt. He himself would be looking to produce a match-winning knock for his team on Saturday.
