Stats for IPL/T20i matches only. Small sample size an issue, so data is a bit noisy.
- Mohali, Chinnaswamy, Eden Gardens & Wankhede seem to be the best batting pitches, others can be hit & miss
- Chepauk notoriously spin friendly
- Hyderabad & Jaipur can be tricky.

Team stats - Chennai Super Kings:
As always, CSK will be reliant on their home form. A lot of the core has changed since the last home/away season, will this approach remain successful? There's perhaps more uncertainty around CSK than ever before.

Delhi Capitals:
Pant injury is a huge loss but plenty of other teams have also lost key players. Can't rule them out.

Gujarat Titans:
Last year's winners - probably won't be the most entertaining to watch but should be relatively effective again. Top order needs to be better.

Kolkata Knight Riders:
An already flawed squad - made some interesting purchases between seasons. Many have awarded them the wooden spoon award but there's a few match winners in the XI.

Lucknow Super Giants:
A well-rounded top 5, with the stability of KL Rahul should keep them competitive in most games. Will the bowling cope in the absence of Mohsin Khan? Still look like top 4 contenders.

Mumbai Indians:
Questionable recruitment and allocation of resources has led to an extremely unbalanced squad. They could be a fun side to watch but will struggle to reach the play-offs.
Forgot to do a bowling sheet for MI

Punjab Kings:
No Bairstow, letting Agarwal and question marks over Livi's fitness leaves their top four looking a bit timid. Bowling is more well-rounded this year, can it compensate for a drop off in batting quality?

Rajasthan Royals:
Another team that's suffered an injury to a key bowler. Should have enough resources to cope and have recruited smartly in the domestic market, look well-placed to finish in the top 4 again.

Royal Challengers Bangalore:
Have improving results papered over some of the cracks in recent seasons? Still a decent but older squad, with lots of injury issues - Hazlewood, Maxwell, Patidar. Need more contributions from big players in the squad.

Sunrisers Hyderabad:
Seem to be one of the favourite teams on twitter. Some good batting additions, paired with a solid core of domestic batting options makes them look competitive. Will they make the right decisions with their XI?

Obviously my knowledge of all domestic players isn't perfect but tried to add something for every player, even if it was just a brief stat.
