Chennai Super Kings' in-form batsman Ambati Rayudu will not be available for Friday's tie against Delhi Capitals in Dubai.

Rayudu, who scored a match-winning 48-ball 71 in the opening game against Mumbai Indians last week, is suffering from a hamstring injury. He did not feature in CSK's Tuesday's loss to Rajasthan Royals. Rayudu has scored 955 runs for CSK in 34 IPL matches since joining the franchise in 2018.
