As the 2016 IPL champions Sunrisers Hyderabad take on the inaugural season winners Rajasthan Royals at the Maharashtra Cricket Association, Pune on Tuesday evening, all eyes will be on the spin duo Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal.

Sometimes when a player is relieved of the burden of captaincy, he flourishes as he is not thinking about 10 other players.

CSK have a new captain in Ravindra Jadeja and the in-form all-rounder needs to lead by example, just like his predecessor MS Dhoni.
