Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will play against Royal Challengers Bengaluru(RCB) in the fifty-second match of IPL 2025 at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. In the 8th match of IPL 2025 at Chepauk RCB won against CSK by 50 runs, ending their long wait for a win at the Chepauk ground. In that game, RCB batted first and scored 196 runs, with Rajat Patidar playing a solid knock of 51 from 32 balls.

CSK lost wickets regularly while chasing and couldn’t build a strong partnership in that match. MS Dhoni scored quick-fire 30 runs, but it wasn’t enough to take CSK to win this match. RCB’s bowlers did a great job in the second half and helped their team win.

RCB: Impact Players

Mohit Rathee: He is a handy middle-order batsman who also bowls leg spin. In his last two domestic T20 matches, he scored 54 runs and took one wicket.

Devdutt Padikkal: He is a graceful left-handed batter, bought by RCB in the IPL 2025 auction. Although he hasn’t been in great form in recent seasons, he made a strong comeback by scoring 50 runs off just 27 balls against RR.

Suyash Sharma: He is a young leg spinner who might get a chance to play if the pitch helps spinners. In his last match against RR, he bowled four overs and gave away 31 runs at a steady economy.

Rasikh Salam: He is a fast bowler who played for Delhi Capitals earlier, had a rough day against Gujarat Titans, conceding 35 runs in his three overs.

CSK: Impact Players

Anshul Kamboj: He is a young fast bowler who can bowl in the powerplay and has the knack for picking early wickets.

Sam Curran: He was bought for a big amount, but CSK hasn’t given him many chances yet. He might come in as an impact player with either bat or ball. In the previous game, the England premier all rounder played a match defining knock against his old team, Punjab Kings

Ravichandran Ashwin: He bowled well against Mumbai Indians. CSK might use him as a sub so they can play an extra batter.

Kamlesh Nagarkoti: He is a quick bowler with a lot of talent, but injuries have slowed him down. He’ll be keen to give his best and grab any chance he gets.
