Chennai Super Kings had four losses in four matches which is surprising. They are currently at the bottom of the table. It is their worst start already. Today’s match against RCB is very crucial. A loss here would further dampen their chances to make it to the playoffs. So, they would look to win today.
RCB is looking settled. They scored hat-trick wins after their first loss this season. Their bowling is one of the strongest and Faf du Plessis is marching his troops very well. Glenn Maxwell’s addition in the last match boosted their confidence further. However, Harshal Patel will miss today’s match as he left bubble due to personal bereavement.
CSK on the other side have been fielding their best XI but the players need to step up. Ruturaj needs to hit the right form. He hasn’t survived powerplay yet. Both the teams might make one change at the most, RCB’s is a forced one though.
Probable playing XIs
RCB: Faf du Plessis, Anuj Rawat, Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell, Dinesh Karthik, Shahbaz Ahmed, David Willey, Wanindu Hasaranga, Siddharth Kaul, Akash Deep, Mohammed Siraj
CSK: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Robin Uthappa, Moeen Ali, Ambati Rayudu, Ravindra Jadeja, Shivam Dube, MS Dhoni, Dwayne Bravo, Chris Jordan, Mukesh Choudhary, Maheesh Theekshana
