RR vs CSK Preview

RR vs CSK IPL 2021 Today Match Prediction.The Rajasthan Royals are currently in second-last place on the points standings. So far, they have only won four of their eleven games. At this point, their chances of making the playoffs are slim. They must first win all three of their remaining games. Then they have to hope for a circumstance in which there is a 14-point tie for fourth place. Their low net run rate, on the other hand, isn’t helping matters right now.

The Chennai Super Kings were the first team to qualify for the playoffs this season. The win against Sunrisers Hyderabad guaranteed their place in the tournament. With 18 points from eleven games, the Men in Yellow are the table toppers. Not only that, but it appears quite clear at this stage that MS Dhoni and his teammates will finish in the top two, giving them two opportunities to go to the final.

RR vs CSK  Key players

Ruturaj Gaikwad

For Chennai Super Kings, Ruturaj Gaikwad will be a vital player as they aim to continue their winning streak. Ruturaj Gaikwad makes batting look easy by always playing textbook shots, and he is richly rewarded for it. He has scored 407 runs at an average of 40.7 in 11 IPL matches this season, with a strike rate of 134.76. On Thursday, Ruturaj Gaikwad started alongside Faf du Plessis, breaking an eight-season partnership record with a 75-run stand in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.

Sanju Samson

With the bat, Sanju Samson has had an outstanding IPL season. He’s a top-notch player with a lot of potentials. Samson has 452 runs at an average of 50.22 in 11 IPL matches this season.

This season, as the captain of the Rajasthan Royals, Samson has performed admirably on a personal level, ranking second among the leading run-scorers in the league. But it’s been a similar story for his franchise. The club was intended to reach new heights with a change in captaincy, but due to the unavailability of important players and the unreliability of those that were available, the team was forced to tumble out of playoff contention.

Team News

RAJASTHAN ROYALS

In terms of the teams, RR is short on star power, and their batter has become increasingly vulnerable to rival bowlers. In any case, it still has a rich pool of young and skilled players that are hungry and ready to take on any club. Its bowling assault has also proven devastating against some of the best teams in the world, and it thrives under pressure. The franchise has been chastised for staying with players who have had a string of bad luck. The line-up may undergo some modifications in the near future.

CHENNAI SUPER KINGS

CSK’s bowling assault is relatively heavy. However, after a difficult season last year, their batting lineup has performed admirably this season. But, so far, things are going well for the team, with Faf du Plessis, Suresh Raina, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Dwayne Bravo, Ravindra Jadeja, and skipper MS Dhoni being the main emphasis. After being judged fit, Dwayne Bravo returned to the lineup in the previous game. In the team, he took over for Sam Curran.

RR vs CSK Match Tips

The Chennai Super Kings have an advantage since, under Dhoni’s leadership, they appear to be a stable, confident team throughout the IPL 2021 season. Rajasthan, on the other hand, is unstable and unsure of their combination, as seen by their series of losses in the previous week following that tight win against Punjab Kings. This match will be much easier to win for CSK, but the Royals will also try to give a rough hand.

Today’s match prediction: Chennai Super Kings to win the match.
