CSK vs RCB Match Preview & Key Players to Watch

Chennai Super Kings (CSK)

CSK started IPL 2025 with a dominant win against Mumbai Indians. Ruturaj Gaikwad led from the front with a quickfire 53 off 26 balls, while Rachin Ravindra remained unbeaten on 65 off 45 balls. The bowling attack, spearheaded by Noor Ahmad (4 wickets) and Khaleel Ahmed (3 wickets), ensured a comfortable victory. Expect MS Dhoni’s team to continue their strong home dominance at Chepauk.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB)

RCB kicked off IPL 2025 with an impressive win over Kolkata Knight Riders. Virat Kohli’s sublime half-century and Phil Salt’s explosive start powered them to victory. The bowling unit, led by Josh Hazlewood and Krunal Pandya, restricted KKR effectively. With RCB eyeing a deep playoff run, they will be determined to beat CSK at their fortress.

CSK vs RCB Match Prediction

Chennai Super Kings hold a superior head-to-head record against RCB, especially at home. However, RCB’s strong batting lineup, featuring Virat Kohli and Liam Livingstone, can challenge CSK’s spin-heavy bowling attack. If CSK’s spinners exploit Chepauk’s turning track, they hold the edge. Expect a closely contested game with CSK having a slight advantage.

Fantasy Cricket Tips for CSK vs RCB

• Pick top-order batters from both teams as Chepauk offers good batting conditions early on.
• Spinners like Noor Ahmad and Ravindra Jadeja will be crucial on a slow Chennai wicket.
• Virat Kohli and Ruturaj Gaikwad are must-haves as they are in sublime form.
• All-rounders like Sam Curran and Krunal Pandya can fetch bonus points with both bat and ball.
